Learning curve and outcome of laparoscopic transcystic common bile duct exploration for choledocholithiasis

The best approach for cholecystocholedocholithiasis remains a matter of debate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the technical aspects, learning curve and outcome of laparoscopic transcystic common bile duct exploration (LTCBDE).
