Laparoscopic Coledocoscopy

A 47-year-old male, with a history of multiple cholelithiasis and multiple choledochal lithiasis, who presented with multiple episodes of cholangitis for which endoscopic treatment (ERCP + stenting) was performed. After 4 unsuccessful attempts to resolve the bile duct by endoscopic approach, it was decided to perform minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery. 

In this video we can observe the Choledochotomy, followed by extraction of stones and biliary mud. Subsequently, a choledochoscopy is performed with the laparoscopic camera (10 mm) with infusion of sterile Physiological Solution since the patient had a very dilated bile duct. Choledochorrhaphy is then performed.
