About this trial

The aim of this retrospective, register-based study is to investigate whether access, or no access, to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) at a surgical unit is associated with the risk of complications in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with common bile duct stones detected on intraoperative cholangiography.

    Other intervention

    The exposed group consists of patients undergoing laparoscopic and diagnosed with CBDS during cholecystectomy at a unit where ERCP is not available.

Treatment groups

10,000 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Cholecystectomy without access to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)1 intervention
Group B: Cholecystectomy with access to ERCP0 interventions
