Laparoscopic CBD Exploration
Understanding Laparoscopic Splenectomy
Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct (CBD) Exploration is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove gallstones or blockages from the common bile duct. It is often performed as an alternative to endoscopic or open surgical approaches, reducing patient discomfort and recovery time.

Common Indications for Laparoscopic CBD Exploration
- Choledocholithiasis: Presence of gallstones in the common bile duct, causing pain, jaundice, or infection.
- Biliary Obstruction: Blockage due to strictures, tumors, or inflammation.
- Failed ERCP: When Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is unsuccessful in clearing the duct.
Symptoms of Liver Abscess
- Severe abdominal pain, particularly in the upper right quadrant
- Fever and chills
- Nausea and vomiting
- Jaundice
- Loss of appetite
- Fatigue
Procedure Breakdown
Dr Dhiraj Premchandani uses a thorough approach to diagnose and treat liver abscesses:
- Preparation: Patients undergo fasting and preoperative imaging (e.g., MRCP, ultrasound) to assess the bile duct condition.
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia is administered for a pain-free procedure.
- Incisions: Small incisions are made to insert the laparoscope and surgical instruments.
- CBD Access: The common bile duct is carefully opened to extract stones or clear obstructions.
- Closure: The duct is repaired using sutures or a T-tube, and incisions are closed.
Benefits of Laparoscopic CBD Exploration
Dr Premchandani tailors treatment plans based on the type and severity of the infection:
- Minimally Invasive: Less pain and scarring compared to open surgery.
- Single-Stage Procedure: Can be done alongside laparoscopic cholecystectomy, avoiding multiple interventions.
- Reduced Hospital Stay: Faster recovery and shorter hospitalization.
- Lower Risk of Complications: Compared to open surgery, it minimizes infection and tissue trauma.
