imageBACKGROUND Clinical equipoise exists regarding optimal sequencing in the definitive management of choledocholithiasis. Our current study compares sequential biliary ductal clearance and cholecystectomy at an interval to simultaneous laparoendoscopic management on index admission in a pragmatic retrospective manner. METHODS Records were reviewed for all patients admitted between January 2015 and December 2018 to a Swedish and an Irish university hospital. Both hospitals differ in their practice patterns for definitive management of choledocholithiasis. At the Swedish hospital, patients with choledocholithiasis underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intraoperative rendezvous endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) at index admission (one stage). In contrast, interval day-case laparoscopic cholecystectomy followed index admission ERCP (two stages) at the Irish hospital. Clinical characteristics, postprocedural complications, and inpatient duration were compared between cohorts. RESULTS Three hundred fifty-seven patients underwent treatment for choledocholithiasis during the study period, of whom 222 (62.2%) underwent a one-stage procedure in Sweden, while 135 (37.8%) underwent treatment in two stages in Ireland. Patients in both cohorts were closely matched in terms of age, sex, and preoperative serum total bilirubin. Patients in the one-stage group exhibited a greater inflammatory reaction on index admission (peak C-reactive protein, 136 ± 137 vs. 95 ± 102 mg/L; p = 0.024), had higher incidence of comorbidities (age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index, ≥3; 37.8% vs. 20.0%; p = 0.003), and overall were less fit for surgery (American Society of Anesthesiologists, ≥3; 11.7% vs. 3.7%; p
