Summary
In 5 patients with common bile duct stones a dissolution therapy with the octanoate mixture Capmul 8210 was performed using the transpapillary perfusion technique. In 3 out of the 5 cases a passage of the stones without further endoscopic operative procedures could be achieved. Complaints were endurable except in one case. Further studies to dissolve common bile duct stones with a modified Capmul solution via a transpapillary tube seem justified.
