Introduction:- Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) prior to Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy(LC) is most commonly practiced strategy worldwide for management of co-existing cholelithiasis with choledocholithiasis. The time interval between Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) and Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is questionable and varies from 1 day to 6 weeks in different studies. Aims and objectives:- To compare two groups of patients managed with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (after ERCP), EARLY(24 to 72 hours), and LATE(> 6weeks) in terms of mean operative time in minutes, intraoperative difculties, conversion rates to open cholecystectomy, conversion rates to open cholecystectomy, drain insertion required or not, postoperative complications, and duration of hospital stay. Materials and methods:- A prospective randomized comparative study was conducted on 70 patients who presented with concomitant cholelithiasis with choledocholithiasis over a period of January 2019 to June 2020 at the Department of General Surgery, Mahatma Gandhi Medical College & Hospital, Jaipur. After ERCP and stone retrieval patients were randomised into 2 groups using sealed envelope method. Group A underwent early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (24 to 72hours) and Group B underwent late laparoscopic cholecystectomy (after 6 weeks). Data collected, statistical analysis done, results and observations concluded. Result:- We found that mean operative time, intraoperative difculties, post operative complications and mean hospital stay in days were signicantly higher in Group B as compared to Group A. Though the conversion rates to open procedure and requirement of drain insertion were comparatively higher in Group B but were found to be statistically non signicant. Conclusion:- We hereby conclude that early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (24 to 72 hours) after Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) is better as compared to late laparoscopic cholecystectomy (>6 weeks) after ERCP in patients of cholelithiasis with coexisting choledocholithiasis. So, we recommend performing early Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (24-72hours) after Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP)

Background—Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography sphincterotomy is increasingly performed in younger patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. However, the safety of endo- scopic sphincterotomy in this age group, relative to that in older patients, is unknown.Aim—To determine whether the development of short term complications following endoscopic sphincterotomy is age related.Patients and methods—A prospective multicentre audit of 958 patients (mean age 73, range 14–97, years) undergoing a total of 1000 endoscopic sphincterotomies.Results—Two deaths occurred, both from postsphincterotomy acute pancreatitis. Postprocedural complications developed in 24 patients: pancreatitis in 10, ascending cholangitis in seven, bleeding in four, and retroperitoneal perforation in three. There were six complications (five cases of pancreatitis and one bleed; 2.2%) and no deaths in the 281 (29.3%) patients aged under 65 years. In comparison, 18 (2.6%) of the 677 patients aged over 65 years developed a complication (cholangitis in seven, pancreatitis in five, bleeding in three, and perforation in three). Patients under 35, 45, 55, and 65 years were not at significantly increased risk of complication than those over these ages (relative risk for those under compared with those over 65 years 0.83, 95% confidence intervals 0.41–1.67, p=0.74).Conclusion—Short term complications following endoscopic sphincterotomy are not related to age. Younger patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy need not be denied endoscopic sphincterotomy for fear that the risks are greater than if they undergo surgical exploration of the common bile duct.

Background: Aims of this study was assess the ideal time of laparoscopic cholecystectomy after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in cases of cholelithiasis with Choledocholthiasis Methods: The present study was carried out on 150 patients admitted in Department of General surgery National Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Jaipur, diagnosed with cholelithiasis along with choledocholithiasis  from 1stJanuary 2019 to 30thJune, 2020. Results: In group 1 out of 75 patients 7 patients developed complications in post operative period compared to 35 patients out of 75 patients developed complications in group 2. The The mean hospital stay (in day) in group 1 patients was 2.26, median 2 and the mean of group 2 was 5.26, median 5. Conclusion: To conclude in our study there has been found significant advantage of early laparoscopic cholecystecomy following ERCP over the late group to minimize complications and promote early recovery of the patients.

The incidence of biliary lithiasis after gastric surgery seems to be higher than in the general population. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) allows several biliary and pancreatic pathologies to be dealt with; however, in patients with an altered anatomy of the upper and mid gastrointestinal tract, this endoscopic manoeuvre can be extremely challenging. We report a case of a 79-year-old woman with previous subtotal gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y reconstruction, admitted with a diagnosis of cholecystitis and choledocolithiasis. She was successfully treated with transjejunal laparoscopic-assisted ERCP and laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which appears to be a safe and useful procedure for choledocolithiasis treatment in patients with surgically altered anatomy.

Abstract Background: The optimal approach for patients with gallbladder stones and intermediate risk for choledocholithiasis still remains undetermined. Use of diagnostic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography should be minimized as it carries considerable risk of post-procedural complications. This study compares two different management strategies: intraoperative cholangiography and endoscopic ultrasound before laparoscopic cholecystectomy for patients with symptomatic cholecystolithiasis and intermediate risk for choledocholithiasis. Methods: It is a diagnostic randomized active-controlled single-centre clinical trial enrolling adult patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy due to symptomatic gallbladder stones with intermediate risk for choledocholithiasis. The risk for choledocholithiasis is calculated using an original prognostic score – Vilnius University Hospital Index. A total of 106 participants will be included and randomized into two groups. Evaluation of bile ducts using endoscopic ultrasound and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography on demand will be performed before laparoscopic cholecystectomy for one arm (“Endoscopy first”). Intraoperative cholangiography during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and postoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography on demand will be administered in another arm (“Cholecystectomy first”). Postoperative follow-up is 6 months. The primary endpoint is the length of hospital stay. Secondary endpoints will include accuracy of the different management strategies, adverse events of interventions, duct clearance and technical success of interventions (intraoperative cholangiography, endoscopic ultrasound, endoscopic retrograde cholangiography), costs of treatment. Discussion: This trial is planned determine which strategy is better approach for a patient with intermediate common bile duct stones risk and to define a simple to calculate and safe algorithm on managing choledocholithiasis. Trial registration: The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, identification number NCT03658863.
