Performing a limited papillosphincterotomy, supplemented by endoscopic balloon dilation, and only endoscopic papillosphincterotomy in patients with choledocholithiasis and parapapillary diverticulum resulted in complete lithoextraction in 92.9% of cases, and adequate drainage of the common bile duct in 100% and 96.4% of cases, respectively. The use of balloon dilation after limited papillosphincterotomy definitely reduces the need for mechanical lithotripsy and the number of postoperative complications.
