title: [Endoscopic diagnosis and therapy of cholecysto- and choledocholithiasis].
abstract: Not only for systematical reasons a differentiation of gallstones disease between cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis is sensible. Although the two diseases are basically caused by gallstones, they generally differ in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. While the cholecystolithiasis is the domain of visceral surgeons and today almost exclusively and definitively cured by microinvasive cholecystectomy, for the treatment of choledocholithias there are required the endoscopic procedures of physicians.
