Abstract
The progresses made in minimally invasive surgery, make it not only possible to perform isolated cholecystectomy, but also to provide a totally laparoscopic treatment of common bile duct lithiasis. In this approach, the use of choledochoscopy is indispensable for diagnostic and therapeutic success. This study describes the use of a disposable endoscope for choledochoscopy in the laparoscopic treatment of choledocholithiasis. We have analyzed the use of the Ambu® aScope 3 disposable endoscope, normally used for bronchoscopy, in nine consecutive patients needing choledochoscopy in our Hospital. The patient average age was 78 years. Total clearance of the bile duct was obtained in seven patients. Bile duct vacuity was not obtained in two patients, but this is not attributed to equipment failure. There was one case of hemoperitoneum not related to equipment usage. This device is easy to use and looks promising for choledochoscopy in laparoscopic treatment of coledocholithiasis.
