ABSTRACT
Percutaneous ultrasonic lithotripsy in association with endoscopic control and balloon catheter dilatation of stenosed cholangiojejunostomy was successfully used in the treatment of a 53-year-old man with intrahepatic gallstones and severe cholestasis. Previously, he had undergone several biliary surgery operations, but all interventions were complicated by stenosis. The good results obtained in this case lead us to consider percutaneous ultrasonic lithotripsy a possible alternative to surgical treatment of complicated gallstones.
