A retrospective study was performed of 250 patients with cholelithiasis treated at the Royal Children's Hospital, (RCH) Melbourne, over 25 years by open operation; 32 (12.8%) had proven choledocholithiasis on either preoperative imaging, operative cholangiography (OpCG), or postoperative investigation. A further 3 had underlying congenital biliary abnormalities and were excluded from further study. Thirty-one of the 32 were explored at open operation, 27 after OpCG and 4 on clinical grounds. One retained common-bile-duct (CBD) stone was undetected until the postoperative period (1/250, 0.25%). Seven ducts were not cleared, giving a duct exploration failure rate of 22.6% (7/31). All 8 retained CBD stones were identified in the early postoperative period and managed with a variety of techniques, including endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP). The incidence of retained stones after open CBD exploration was high (22.6%), and can be attributed to difficulties in operative technique dealing with the smaller paediatric CBD. In addition, haemolytic disease seems to induce a propensity for choledocholithiasis. Given the small numbers presenting with cholelithiasis to RCH (10 per year), it is suggested that a selective approach to CBD exploration is appropriate in children. With the increasing use of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in children and the inherent technical difficulties of laparoscopic operative cholangiography, FRCP may offer an alternative solution in dealing with CBD stones rather than open or laparoscopic CBD exploration.
