Abstract Background  Common bile duct (CBD) stone recurrence is considered an unresolved concern after cholecystectomy and complete extraction of previous CBD stones. This study aimed to investigate the potential risk factors for primary CBD stone recurrence after cholecystectomy and endoscopic treatment. Methods  The endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) database of our medical center was retrospectively reviewed between February 2008 and May 2018. A total of 45 patients with CBD stone recurrence with a history of previous cholecystectomy were recruited in the study. Moreover, 104 patients who underwent cholecystectomy at our medical center and who were followed up for more than 1 year without CBD stone recurrence were assigned to the control group. The characteristics of the patients, surgical records during cholecystectomy, and ERCP records obtained immediately before cholecystectomy were analyzed. Results  Univariate analysis, based on the binary logistic regression method, indicated that age (p = 0.01) and the presence of the periampullary diverticulum (PAD; p = 0.006) were significantly different between the non-recurrence and recurrence groups. However, the surgical records during cholecystectomy were not significantly different between the two groups. The CBD stone number (p = 0.039), CBD stone diameter (≥ 10 mm; p = 0.05), and CBD diameter (≥ 15 mm; p < 0.001), based on the ERCP findings were significantly different between the two groups. Multivariate analysis revealed that CBD diameter (≥ 15 mm; OR, 3.878; 95% CI, 1.406–10.697; p = 0.008) was the independent risk factors for CBD stone recurrence after cholecystectomy. Conclusions  CBD diameter (≥ 15 mm) at the time of the initial ERCP is associated with CBD stone recurrence after cholecystectomy.
