Abstract
A 78-year-old woman was diagnosed as having choledocholithiasis with benign common bile duct stricture by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. We inserted three plastic stents in the common bile duct to dilate the biliary stricture. After 2 months, we retrieved all of the plastic stents and confirmed biliary dilatation. Simultaneously, endoscopic lithotomy was performed without any complications. Multiple plastic stents were safely used for the treatment of choledocholithiasis with benign common bile duct stricture.
