- Brief Summary
Bile duct stone extraction is impossible after endoscopic sphincterotomy (ES) alone in approximatively 10% of cases (mostly because of stones' size). Adjunction of a mechanical lithotripsy (ML) is well established to improve clearance of common bile duct (CBD) stones. Because of inconstant success, high cost, and length of procedure, an alternative method was proposed in 2003: endoscopic sphincterotomy plus large balloon dilatation (ESLBD). If the safety of ESLBD is accepted in all recent published studies, it remains controversial wether ESLBD is superior to conventional endoscopic treatment associating ES± ML for CBD stones. Procedure treatment and place of ESLBD in CBD stones therapeutic strategy is unclear.
The purpose of this prospective comparative multi center randomized study is to evaluate the superiority or not of ESLBD on conventional treatment (ES±ML) for the treatment of large bile duct stone (≥13mm) after standard ES, and to propose a new CBD stones therapeutic strategy.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Success of common bile duct clearance in one session of ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) 1 month
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of patients with mild or severe BLEEDING (Morbidity) after ERCP 1 month Immediate complications were noted :
* bleeding : mild if blood transfusion not necessary, and severe if blood transfusion necessary
* Clinical data (pain, fever, vomiting...) are noted during first month
* Clinical examination and blood tests (Blood count, C reactive protein, lipase blood test, hepatic tests, creatininemia) were noted at the 30th day after procedure
* In case of bleeding suspected, a new ERCP was done
* Number of patients with bleeding and with any complication in both groups were noted and comparedNumber of patients with mild or severe ACUTE PANCREATITIS (Morbidity) after ERCP 1 month Immediate complications were noted :
* Acute pancreatitis : defined by the association of abdominal pain and lipase blood test \> 3 N
* Severity of acute pancreatitis was evaluated on CT index, and on evolution data
* Clinical data (pain, fever, vomiting...) are noted during first month
* Clinical examination and blood tests (Blood count, C reactive protein, lipase blood test, hepatic tests, creatininemia) were noted at the 30th day after procedure

* Number of patients with Acute Pancreatitis and any complication in both groups were noted and comparedNumber of patients with PERFORATION (Morbidity of ERCP) 1 day * Suspected on clinical data (pain, fever, vomiting...) and blood tests (Blood count, C reactive protein) noted during first day after ERCP:
* confirmed on CT
* Number of patients with perforation in both groups were noted and compared, and global morbidity in both groups were noted and comparedNumber of patients with post ERCP INFECTION as angiocholitis, cholecystitis or urine infection, septicemia (Morbidity of ERCP) 1 month * Suspected on clinical data (pain, fever, vomiting...), blood tests (Blood count, C reactive protein, blood and urine cultures), noted during first day after ERCP, during 30th day and more if necessary in the meantime

* Number of patients with infection in both groups were noted and compared, and global morbidity in both groups were noted and comparedCost of procedure Day one All the instrument used during ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) for each patient were noted, and at the end of procedure cost of all instruments were recorded
GLOBAL MORBIDITY of ERCP (number of patients with bleeding and/or acute pancreatistis and/or perforation and/or infection) 1 month - Number of patients with any complication as bleeding, acute pancreatitis, perforation, infection (as angiocholitis, cholecystitis, urine infection or septicemia) happened in both groups during the first month after the procedure were noted and compared
