In the case of failed ERCP, multiple ERCP procedures or where ERCP is not feasible such as after gastric bypass surgery, choledochoduodenostomy may be considered as an effective intervention. This report discusses a case of an 85-year-old woman who presented with recurrent choledocholithiasis and cholangitis, following multiple failed ERCP procedures. She underwent a laparoscopic choledochoduodenostomy. In the post-operative course, she developed Escherichia coli bacteremia, two peri-splenic collections, and a small bowel obstruction which were all successfully managed. She was discharged after 29 days. Laparoscopic surgical management of recurrent choledocholithiasis is a safe alternative to ERCP. It should be considered in individuals with risk factors for recurrent choledocholithiasis, including elderly patients. Clinical vigilance and a multidisciplinary approach in the elderly are vital for optimal management.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjaf717","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,28]],"date-time":"2025-09-28T17:38:51Z","timestamp":1759081131000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Recurrent choledocholithiasis following multiple failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatographies: a case for laparoscopic choledochoduodenostomy"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2025","author":[{"given":"Tiana","family":"Tambyrajah","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, St George Hospital , Gray St, Kogarah, NSW 2217 ,","place":["Australia"]},{"name":"School of Medicine , University of New South Wales, Kensington, NSW 2052,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jason","family":"Diab","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, St George Hospital , Gray St, Kogarah, NSW 2217 ,","place":["Australia"]},{"name":"School of Medicine , University of New South Wales, Kensington, NSW 2052,","place":["Australia"]},{"name":"School of Medicine , University of Notre Dame, Chippendale, NSW 2007,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sailakshmi","family":"Krishnan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, St George Hospital , Gray St, Kogarah, NSW 2217 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tariq","family":"Cachalia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, St George Hospital , Gray St, Kogarah, NSW 2217 ,","place":["Australia"]},{"name":"School of Medicine , University of New South Wales, Kensington, NSW 2052,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dominic","family":"Rao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, St George Hospital , Gray St, Kogarah, NSW 2217 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Francis","family":"Chu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, St George Hospital , Gray St, Kogarah, NSW 2217 ,","place":["Australia"]},{"name":"School of Medicine , University of New South Wales, Kensington, NSW 2052,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025092813384927800_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"856","DOI":"10.1007\/s004649900729","article-title":"Diagnosis and treatment of common bile duct stones (CBDS).
