Abstract
Laparoscopic CBD exploration for choledocholithiasis can be performed safely in children at the time of cholecystectomy and can clear all of the stones in the CBD in two thirds of cases. If there is residual obstruction, a postoperative ES can be performed. We suggest primary treatment of choledocholithiasis by laparoscopic approach in children.
