  We consider the distribution of conductance fluctuations in disordered
quantum dots with single channel leads. Using a perturbative diagrammatic
approach, valid for continuous level spectra, we describe dephasing due to
processes within the dot by considering two different contributions to the
level broadening, thus satisfying particle number conservation. Instead of a
completely non-Gaussian distribution, which occurs for zero dephasing, we find
for strong dephasing that the distribution is mainly Gaussian with
non-universal variance and non-Gaussian tails.
