Laparoscopic transgastric ERCP in bariatric surgery patients: our experience
2017
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is the surgical
treatment of choice for morbid obesity. Several therapeutic options
to remove common bile duct (CBD) stones have been proposed in
these patients. Laparoscopy-assisted transgastric ERCP (LATERCP)
has a high success rate. However, the procedure is not fully
standardized and some technical variations have been proposed.
We introduce two cases in which laparoscopic transgastric ERCP
has been used to treat choledocholithiasis after LRYGB.
