With the advent of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a number of patients with various postprocedure problems have been referred for endoscopic management. Thirty-five patients were evaluated. The group included 26 women and 9 men, ages 24 to 90 years (mean, 50 years). Twenty-five patients with retained common bile duct stones were successfully treated with endoscopic sphincterotomy and balloon or basket removal. Three patients with bile duct strictures had balloon dilation and endoprosthesis placement and were free of signs of obstruction on 9-month follow-up. Bile leaks were treated successfully with endoscopic sphincterotomy and endoprosthesis placement. Two patients with bile duct leaks and biloma formation required percutaneous or surgical drainage in addition to endoscopic treatment. Three patients had more than one complication. Two patients had strictures with retained stones above the stricture; dilation of the stricture was performed and the stones were removed. One patient with the complication of biliary leak and a long, irregular stricture was treated temporarily by sphincterotomy and stent placement while awaiting surgery. Therapeutic biliary endoscopy is a valuable, minimally invasive alternative to surgery in patients with problems arising after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
