Abstract
Selective use of transcystic bile duct exploration during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe and highly effective approach for treatment of most common duct stones. The technique obviates the need for selective endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography-sphincterotomy prior to cholecystectomy and is a more cost-effective approach.Mesh:
