Common Bile Duct Pressure After Surgical Exploration
Sponsor: Hospital General de Chihuahua - Dr. Salvador Zubirán Anchondo
Summary
A study that included patients of any gender between 15 and 70 years, with the diagnosis of choledocholithiasis who required a cholecystectomy with an exploration of bile ducts. Conventional cholecystectomy was performed and a T-tube was inserted in the common bile duct (CBD) to measure the intraluminal pressure immediately after the procedure, and weekly thereafter, with a 6-week follow-up. A control T-tube radiological study was performed at six weeks to exclude residual stones.
