Overview

Case report highlights recurrent cholangitis due to CBD stones in a patient with diverticula, suggesting ERCP may be required.

Key Points

  • The patient experienced recurrent cholangitis from CBD stones after cholecystectomy, highlighting a connection with duodenal diverticula.
  • Cholangitis episodes involved fever, abdominal pain, and jaundice, indicating significant complications from choledocholithiasis.
  • Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography was utilized multiple times to manage CBD stones and prevent further complications.
  • Choledochoduodenostomy was performed to reduce the risk of recurrent stone formation in the presence of periampullary diverticula.
