“…From a historical point of view, CBD exploration has been performed at the same time as a cholecystectomy by open choledochotomy with papillotomy and stone extraction, often with a T-tube placement, with an unacceptable morbidity and mortality [11,46] . Therefore, it was proposed to abandon this method on a routine basis 20 years ago [47] .…”

“…Currently, open choledochotomy and papillotomy could still play a role in those cases with intraoperative unexpected diagnosis of choledocholithiasis and cholangitis, with bile duct dilatation or where all other endoscopic, percutaneous and laparoscopic approaches failed. Open choledochotomy and papillotomy could also be used in the case of a pre-existing open surgery that limits the application of endoscopic approaches (i.e., Roux-en-Y intestinal reconstruction after gastrectomy) [11] .…”

“…Einnig er haegt að fjarlaegja gallrásar-steina í sömu aðgerð og gallblaðra er tekin í kjölfar greiningar með myndrannsókn af gallrás í aðgerð (intraoperative cholangiogram). 15 Endurinnlagnir og inngrip vegna gallrásarsteina sem greinast ekki við fyrstu innlögn eru kostnaðar-samar fyrir baeði samfélagið og sjúklinginn. Tilgangur rannsóknarinnar var að kanna þá sjúklinga sem greindust með gallrásarstein á Landspítala á árunum 2008-2011 eftir gallblöðrutöku, bera niðurstöður saman við niðurstöður erlendra rannsókna, meta hvort gallrásar-steinar við gallblöðrutökur séu vangreindir og hvert sé hlutfall steina sem telja megi víst að hafi verið til staðar við aðgerð miðað við steina sem hafi myndast síðar.…”

“…Myndrannsókn fylgir hins vegar sjálfstaeð haetta á fylgikvillum eins og við öll inngrip, til daemis bandvefsmyndun og þrenging í gallrás með tilheyrandi vandamálum. 15,17,18 Það er því ekki sjálfgefið að aukin notkun myndrannsókna í aðgerð sé sjúklingum fyrir bestu. Eitt af því sem getur dregið úr þörfinni fyrir myndrannsókn í aðgerð er aðgengi að segulómun af gallrás og brisrás fyrir aðgerð.…”
