Key inclusion criteria - 1. Patients with bile duct stones detected by imaging examinations such as abdominal ultrasonography, CT, MRI, or other modalities
2. Patients who have undergone Roux-en-Y reconstruction after gastrectomy and are scheduled to undergo endoscopic stone removal using balloon-assisted endoscopy
3. Patients with stones measuring 15 mm or more in maximum diameter, or with multiple stones (three or more) including at least one stone measuring 10 mm or more in maximum diameter (as measured on pre-procedural imaging)
4. Patients aged 20 years or older at the time of informed consent
5. Patients with an ECOG Performance Status score of 0-2
6. Patients from whom written informed consent for participation in this study has been obtained
Key exclusion criteria - 1. Patients who have not undergone gastrointestinal reconstruction surgery, or who have undergone reconstruction procedures other than Roux-en-Y reconstruction after gastrectomy
2. Patients in whom discontinuation or substitution of antithrombotic agents is required but cannot be performed when conducting high bleeding-risk endoscopic procedures, as described in the guidelines for gastrointestinal endoscopy in patients receiving antithrombotic or anticoagulant therapy. In addition, patients with valvular atrial fibrillation receiving warfarin whose anticoagulation cannot be maintained within the therapeutic range
3. Patients with severe cholangitis (TG18 grade III) in whom cholangioscopic procedures are considered high risk
4. Patients with poor general condition (ECOG Performance Status score 3 or4)
5. Female patients who may be pregnant
