Objective: To conduct a literature review on nursing interventions in patients with choledocholithiasis. Methodology: Structured non-experimental research and literature review, with articles from scientific databases such as Medline, Pubmed, SciELO, Scopus, Taylor & Francis, ProQuest, Elsevier, Springer, Web of Science, and Redalyc. Results: Choledocholithiasis represents a prevalence of 20% of the population, with Mexico being one of the countries with the highest rate of cases, estimating a percentage ranging from 5% to 23%. The most predictive risk factors include poor diet, obesity, diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, liver cirrhosis, age between 40 and 60, and female sex. The most frequent complications are bile duct obstruction, obstructive jaundice, cholecystitis, pancreatitis, cholangitis, and sepsis. The therapeutic approach includes intraoperative cholangiography, resonance, ERCP, and pharmacological treatment, including NSAIDs, proton inhibitors, antiemetics, and antibiotics. Nursing care involves monitoring vital signs, pain management, infection prevention, and administering drugs for the patient's prompt recovery. Conclusion: Choledocholithiasis is one of the most frequent diseases worldwide, and timely treatment is essential to avoid complications that can cause the patient's death.
