Objective: To explore the clinical effect of gallbladder and common bile duct stones treated by Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy(LC) and common bile duct exploration(LCBDE).
Methods: One hundred and thirty-two cases of gallbladder and common bile duct stones were divided into LC+LCBDE group(n=72) and LC + EST control group(n=60) randomly according to the treatment mothods. The clinical date of 2 groups was compared with the rate of success of operation, incidence of postoperative complications, incidence of residual calculus, time of defecation after operation.
Results: There were no statistical difference of the rate of success operation between LC+LCBDE group and EST+LC group(P＞0.05),but incidence of postoperative complications and residual calculus in LC+LCBDE group were  significant lower than those in LC+EST group.
Conclusions: Combining  LC with LCBDE is a feasible treatment for cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis.
