Choledochal calculosis due to a suture thread

: The authors recently observed a patient suffering from recurrent choledochal, postcholecystectomy calculosis caused by suture thread. Given the relative rarity of this pathology, the difficulty of preoperative diagnosis and the possible confusion with other anatomoclinical syndromes, they take this opportunity to make a number of diagnostic and therapeutic comments in the light of the latest literature on this subject.
