The rates of cumulative recurrence and complications were compared between the two groups.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n Overall, 122 patients (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u200944, EPLBD + ML and\n n<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u200978, EPLBD) treated by 12 gastroenterologists were included. Patients in the EPLBD + ML group were older (85 years versus 81.5 years) and had larger maximum stone diameter (15\u2009mm versus 12.5\u2009mm) than those in the EPLBD group. Compared with the EPLBD group, the EPLBD + ML group required more endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedures (\u22652) (86% versus 67%) and longer total ERCP time after reaching the papilla (78.5 minutes versus 25 minutes). Complication rates were not significantly different (9.1% versus 12.8%); however, the cumulative recurrence rates were higher in the EPLBD + ML group than in the EPLBD group (69.4% versus 23.5% at 4 years).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Although there were no differences in complication rates, the long-term recurrence rate was higher in the EPLBD + ML group than in the EPLBD group. This study emphasizes the added burden imposed by performing ML during ERCP and suggests that by appropriate case selection, it is possible to treat cases of difficult biliary stones using EPLBD without ML.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/lap.2023.0274","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,19]],"date-time":"2023-10-19T11:38:30Z","timestamp":1697715510000},"page":"1162-1166","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Addition of Mechanical Lithotripsy to Endoscopic Papillary Large Balloon Dilation in Patients with Difficult Common Bile Duct Stones: A Retrospective Single-Center Study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"33","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2238-9558","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hidehiro","family":"Kamezaki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Eastern Chiba Medical Center, Togane City, Japan."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Terunao","family":"Iwanaga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Eastern Chiba Medical Center, Togane City, Japan."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mamoru","family":"Tokunaga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Eastern Chiba Medical Center, Togane City, Japan."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takahiro","family":"Maeda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Eastern Chiba Medical Center, Togane City, Japan."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jun-ichi","family":"Senoo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Eastern Chiba Medical Center, Togane City, Japan."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hiroshi","family":"Ohyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Graduate School of Medicine, Chiba University, Chiba City, Japan."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naoya","family":"Kato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Graduate School of Medicine, Chiba University, Chiba City, Japan."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/den.13020"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mge.2003.52"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_3_5_4_2","first-page":"202","article-title":"Can endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation (EPLBD) decrease the need for mechanical lithotripsy in patients with giant biliary stones?","volume":"32","author":"Garz\u00f3n M","year":"2017","unstructured":"Garz\u00f3n M, , Hern\u00e1ndez G, , P\u00e9rez O, et al.
