Faculty of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University of Yaounde I, Yaoundé, Cameroon.
Background: Residual lithiasis is the presence of stones in the common bile duct, ignored after one or more biliary interventions. We report an atypical case of chronic symptomatic lithiasis of the lower bile duct occurring 41 years after biliary surgery, managed successfully by ideal choledochotomy.
Case Presentation: A 68-year-old Black African female with several past laparotomies including a cholecystectomy forty-one years ago presented with hepatic colic-type pain that had been intermittent for several years but worsened recently.

The term "megaureter" is used to describe a markedly dilated ureter, irrespective of its underlying anatomic abnormality. Primary megaureters categorised as type I and II according to the Pfister-Hendren classification resolve spontaneously during the first years of life, whereas severely dilated type III megaureters have no potential to resolve on conservative management. Regarding this small group of very severely dilated type III megaureters, we recommend a two-step surgical approach: in a first step, we place a temporary splint-free ureterocutaneostomy for early disobstruction.

The radial artery approach has been accepted as an alternative to the traditional femoral approach in both diagnostic and interventional procedures, including treatment of complex coronary lesions such as chronic total occlusions. Catheterization of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft is frequently performed through this route in order to limit catheter manipulation and avoid dissection of the subclavian and mammary artery, a dramatic event rarely reported in the literature. Nonetheless, indication for this approach should be carefully evaluated, especially if an unfavorable angle of origin of the mammary artery is present.
