The standard management for patients presenting with bile duct calculi is endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and sphincterotomy with stone retrieval. In failed cases and for intrahepatic duct stones, there are a number of non-operative alternative extraction methods. We describe two cases of percutaneous intracorporeal lithotripsy for biliary calculi and review the literature regarding the indications, complications and success rate.
