Abstract

The Authors report two cases of recurrent bile duct stones and discuss about the diagnosis and treatment of this infrequent disease. Although diagnostic and management procedures are similar to those commonly used in all types of biliary stones, therapeutical options may be different in relation to the different clinical pictures. The Authors strongly suggest that bilioenteric anastomosis and endoscopic sphincterotomy are the best procedures to assure a correct and definitive treatment of recurrent biliary stones. However, the adoption of different diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, rather than univocal schemes, is recommended.
