The authors discuss about the different surgical approaches in the management of primary intrahepatic stones, conforming their experience to literature reports. In the future they hope for a more conservative treatment on the basis of the good results obtained with percutaneous transhepatic fiber cholangioscopy (P.T.C.S.) and ultrasonographic extra-body lithotripsy recently adopted in the clinical practice.
