Successful application of percutaneous endoscopic cholangioscopy + electrohydraulic lithotripsy for hepatolithiasis post-liver transplantation: a case report

Percutaneous cholangioscopy with intraductal lithotripsy enables accurate identification and extraction of intrahepatic stones without the need for surgical intervention. This method proves to be a valuable alternative in addressing post-transplant biliary stone. In our case, it was performed on a pediatric patient who underwent liver transplantation, which makes it interesting and relevant as there is currently insufficient literature on this approach in such cases in this population.

Abstract

Percutaneous cholangioscopy with intraductal lithotripsy enables accurate identification and extraction of intrahepatic stones without the need for surgical intervention. This method proves to be a valuable alternative in addressing post-transplant biliary stone. In our case, it was performed on a pediatric patient who underwent liver transplantation, which makes it interesting and relevant as there is currently insufficient literature on this approach in such cases in this population.
