This lady was referred to us from another hospital. A T tube had been placed following cholecystectomy the post operative ultrasound and T tube cholangiogram suggested that there was a retained stone in the CBD. Contrast injection identified a negative shadow in the upper CBD (A: blue arrow. White arrow marks the T tube). We removed the T tube and performed a balloon sweep which resulted in not one but two stones (B1 & B2: white arrows. The second was a perfectly cut diamond!). An occlusion cholangiogram with contrast injection over a fully inflated balloon (C: white arrow) showed a clear CBD.
