The joint and massive presence of gallstones from the bile duct, both intra and extra hepatic, is a rare entity within the western population. Two cases are presented below, which debuted with a clinical picture of pain in the right hypo chondrium and with a clinical picture of pain in the right hypochondrium and with clinical and laboratory data of bile duct obstruction, and that by means of a resonance cholangiography study, multiple endoluminal stones of the bile duct are evidenced. Overall, it also shows the treatment of one of the cases by ERCP with successful evacuation of the gallstones.

Keywords : Lithiasis; bile duct; massive; resonance cholangio; endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP).
