Endoscopic sphincterotomy is a widely accepted technique for the treatment of patients with common bile duct stones. However, it is still associated with occasional complications. The recently developed technique of endoscopic papillary balloon dilation seems to be a safe and effective procedure, and to have great potential for replacing endoscopic sphincterotomy. However, few reports have been published on the use of this technique for bile duct stones. The present study was undertaken to evaluate its safety and efficacy.
