The presence of bile stasis is a frequent mechanism for presenting choledocholithiasis and recurrence of this one. The bile duct angulation, also known as "elbow sign," could be a risk factor for reducing the flow of bile and forming stones and it has been reported as a consequence secondary to the use of T-tube. The recurrence of choledocholithiasis without the use of T-tube in the bile duct is minimal, whereas in those with T-tube is four times higher in bile duct exploration surgeries. We present a case report of a patient who underwent T-tube laparoscopic bile duct exploration surgery, who had a bile duct angulation and residual choledocholithiasis as a complication.
