Cholesterol stones in the bile duct may be resolved by applying Capmul 8210 (Cholesterol-caprylic acid ester) by way of T-drain or through a gastro-biliary tube. Results of in vitro experiments and a case reported do show, that an alternating irrigation with a specially prepared solution of glycerooctonate with bile salt-EDTA-solution will yield better results than Capmul 8210 alone. The advantage of this alternating therapy results from the fact, that calcium bilirubinate may be resolved in addition to the other components of the gallstones, and that side effects are rarer and less disturbing than side effects caused by Capmul 8210.
