Abstract
Background
Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are secure and effective techniques that recently been used to treat bile duct stones. The purpose of this research was to assess the intra-procedural efficacy and postprocedural upshots of the laparoscopic common bile duct exploration plus laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCBDE) and ERCP plus laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ERCP + LC).
Methods
All studies contrasting one-stage (LCBDE) with two-stage (ERCP/EST + LC) managements in patients with concomitant gallstones and common bile duct (CBD) stones were included. The primary outcomes were CBD stone clearance, postoperative morbidity, and mortality, while secondary outcomes were conversion with other techniques, duration of stay in hospital, number of procedures used per patient, and operating time. Data were pooled by meta-analysis.
Results
Fourteen studies with 1600 participants were identified. Each arm contains 800 participants. There is no significant difference between the two arms regarding successful CBD stone clearance (RR = 0.96, P = 0.15), mortality (RR = 1.74, P = 0.33), morbidity (RR = 0.89, P = 0.32), conversion to additional procedure (RR = 1.44, P = 0.09), operating time (MD = −1.43 min, P = 0.95), hospital stay (MD = 1.31 days, P = 0.17), and retained stone rate (RR = 1.73, P = 0.38).
Conclusions
One- and two-stage management had similar efficacy and safety in terms of CBD stone clearance rate, mortality, morbidity, operating time, hospital stay, and retained stone rate. One-stage management may reduce additional procedure.
