Abstract No. 12 Systematic Review Analyzing Percutaneous Cholangioscopy and Lithotripsy for Inoperable Calculus Cholecystitis

There is limited available literature on percutaneous gallstone extraction for large stones using lithotripsy in patients with inoperable calculus cholecystitis. The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive review of the efficacy and safety profiles for the commonly utilized types of lithotripsy including electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL), extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), ShockPulse lithotripsy (SPL), and laser lithotripsy (LL).
