ABSTRACT
Fifteen patients with retained common bile duct (CBD) stones and T-tube and twenty patients with CBD stones without T-tube had stones removed by endoscopic method. The result of endoscopic sphincterotomy, stone extraction, stone clearance and complication in patients with T-tube was similar to the results in patients without T-tube. The presence of T-tube did not create much difficulty in stone removal and the successful rate of 86.6 per cent (13/15) was satisfactory. Endoscopic removal of retained stones in patients with T-tube is recommended when retrieval via T-tube is not available since the later has fewer reported complications with very low mortality compared to the endoscopic technique.
