pubmed:abstractText |
Intrahepatic stones are characterized by high treatment failure and recurrence rates. In the past, surgery played a major role in the management of this disease, but surgical intervention may not be feasible in previously operated patients or those classified as poor surgical risks. The development of percutaneous trans-hepatic cholangioscopy and lithotripsy has played an important role in the treatment of these patients.
