The authors make a retrospective analysis of 198cases of biliar lithiasis surgery 11 O cases had notundergone choledoscopy (group 1) and 88 caseshad (group 2). They detail the most importanttechnical steps, global and specific morbimortalityThe latter is higher far group 1. A remarkabledecrease of residual lithiasis is pointed out fargroup 2.Conclusions: choledoscopy is an effective methofar decreasing complications in the biliar tree.Choledoscopy is not a substitute farcholangiography and its good results need alearning.


Fueron estudiados en forma retrospectiva 198casos de cirugía por litiasis biliar. De éstos, en 110casos no se hizo coledocoscopía (grupo 1) y sí sehizo en 88 casos (grupo 2). Se detallan los pasostécnicos más importantes, la morbimortalidadglobal y especifica, que es mayor en el grupo 1.Se destaca una notoria disminución de la litiasisresidual en el grupo 2.Conclusiones: la coledocoscopía es un métodoefectivo para disminuir las complicaciones en elárbol biliar.La coledocospia no sustituye la colangiografia ysus buenos resultados necesitan de una curva deaprendizaje.
