Systematic study of risk factors for biliary stone post-liver transplantation is rarely performed. To investigate the risk factor of choledocholithiasis formation after liver transplantation, we c onducted a case-control study. Fourteen patients were selected into a study group. The stones of the bile duct of the patients were confirmed and treated successfully by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. For univariate analysis, we selected carefully some potential risk factors such as cold ischemia time, warm ischemia time, and biliary stricture. The results revealed that cold ischemia time and biliary stenosis were significant predictors. But multivariate analysis revealed that only biliary stenosis was a significant risk factor. In conclusion, biliary stenosis is a risk factor of bile duct stones formation after liver transplantation. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is effective and safe in the diagnosis or treatment of bile duct stones after liver transplantation.
