Objective: To investigate the clinical effects of new fiberoptic cholangioscopy-guided percutaneous transhepatic choledochoscope lithotomy (PTCSL) combined with dual-frequency laser lithotripsy for the treatment of intractable hepatolithiasis.
Methods: Eighty patients with intractable hepatolithiasis who received treatment in the Second Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine from December 2020 to December 2022 were grouped according to the surgical methods. Forty-two patients who received hepatectomy were divided into the control group, 38 patients who received new fiber-optic choledochoscope-guided PTCSL combined with dual-frequency laser lithotripsy were divided into the observation group, and the treatment results of the two groups were compared.
