title: [Intraoperative endoscopic sphincterotomy for common bile duct stones during laparoscopic cholecystectomy].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To assess the effects of approach-intraoperative endoscopic sphincterotomy (IOES) for common bile duct (CBD) stones during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).
  
  
  METHODS
  Twenty-seven patients with secondary CBD stones were treated by IOES during LC. Therapeutic effects were evaluated on the basis of the cure rate, early complications, and days of hospitalization.
  
  
  RESULTS
  IOES was successfully performed in 26 (96.30%) of 27 cases, and their CBD stones were cleared completely. Two cases (7.69%) were complicated by mild acute pancreatitis.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  IOES as an alternative to the treatment of CBD stones during LC is safe and avoids reoperation.
