Abstract

The paper presents clinical observation of a patient with cholelithiasis and so-called “difficult” choledocholithiasis. Considering the developed complications – mechanical jaundice and purulent cholangitis, as well as large operative risk, it was decided to refrain from open surgical intervention. Traditionally-performed endoscopic stone extraction did not provide any success. Contact electro-impulse lithotripsy and lithotomy were performed. This enabled choledocholithiasis and cholangitis to be eliminated, bile ducts patency to be restored, and ensured the possibility of safe elective surgical intervention for chronic calculous cholecystitis.
