Abstract
SCHAERER-ELIZECHE, Pablo E. et al. Choledocholithiasis resolved by laparoscopy. Case report. Cir. parag. [online]. 2023, vol.47, n.3, pp.28-30. ISSN 2307-0420. https://doi.org/10.18004/sopaci.2023.diciembre.28.
Choledocholitiasis is a common obstructive pathology of the bile ducts, which can lead to a series of symptoms and complications. We present a 64-year-old female patient, with a history of cholecystectomy 30 years ago, who presented with epigastric pain, jaundice, choluria and acholia for six days. Upon admission obstructive jaundice related to gallstones was diagnosed by MRCP. The condition could not be resolved by ERCP and was resolved with a laparoscopic approach.
