Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery
CBD Stone Removal
What is CBD Stone ?
CBD stones (stones in the Common Bile Duct) can cause serious symptoms like jaundice, pain, fever, and infection. While many cases are managed endoscopically (via ERCP), some require laparoscopic CBD exploration—a minimally invasive surgical option when ERCP isn’t possible, fails, or is unavailable.
Dr. Davinder Singh specialises in laparoscopic CBD stone removal, ensuring gentle yet effective treatment with faster recovery and fewer complications.
Symptoms
Common signs of CBD Stone:
- Yellowing of eyes or skin (jaundice)
- Severe pain in the upper abdomen (especially after meals)
- Fever with chills (suggesting infection)
- Nausea and vomiting
- Dark urine or pale stools
When Laparoscopic Removal Is Needed:
- ERCP fails or isn’t available
- Stone is large, impacted, or multiple
- Previous surgery makes endoscopy difficult
- Concurrent gallbladder removal planned
- Recurrent stones despite previous treatment
