Project description:PurposeThe aim of the present study is to describe the cavity-reducing internal capitonnage technique that we used for the surgical therapy of liver hydatid cyst, and contribute to the literature by presenting the short- and long-term outcomes of the patients who were operated on with this technique.MethodsA drainage and internal capitonnage technique was performed on 12 cases due to liver hydatid cyst in our clinic between January 2016 and December 2019.ResultsThe mean age of cases was 36.25 ± 12.5 years, with 7 females and 5 males. All cases had pain in the right upper quadrant, and a sense of fullness in 5 cases. None of the cases had ruptured cysts, jaundice, or other clinical manifestations. The preoperative laboratory findings were normal in 8 cases. Intraoperative biliary-cyst communication was demonstrated in 8 cases (66.7%). Cases were followed up for a mean duration of 38.1 months (range, 24-88 months).ConclusionThe drainage/internal capitonnage with/without selective bile duct repair is a technique that can be performed with very low morbidity and mortality rates in experienced hands, especially for centrally located hydatid cysts.

Laparoscopic management of a primary gallbladder hydatid cyst with daughter cysts in the common bile duct: Case report

Project description:Introduction and importance Primary Gallbladder hydatid cysts are a very rare phenomenon caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Hydatid cysts usually present as hepatic or pulmonary lesions, but in our case, it presented in the gallbladder with three symptomatic daughter cysts in the CBD. Echinococcus caused by E.granulosus Is the most common parasite causing the disease, accounting for 95% of the cases. Case presentation 75 - year - old male presented with colic pain, jaundice, itching, vomiting, nausea, insomnia, Positive murphy's sign, and elevated AST and ALT. Total bilirubin was also elevated with no hepatomegaly or splenomegaly. Clinical discussion This disease is endemic in Mediterranean countries due to high contact with the host of the parasite the lumen or on the external surface of the gallbladder. Which can come from the portal system or the spreading of brood capsules through the biliary tract. Conclusion The method of investigation used was USG, CT, ERCP which are affordable and accessible in low-income countries including Syria. we would like to highlight this rare presentation and the possibility of using laparoscopic surgery. Highlights • Primary hydatid cyst is usually found in the liver, lungs and brain in our case it presented in the gallbladder and common bile duct which is very rare.• We can encounter primary hydatid cyst in unexpected organs especially in countries with high prevalence.• Jaundice in our case was the main presenting symptom.• The role of laparoscopic surgery in treatment because of its less invasive nature and the low spillage possibility. This is the second case treated via laparoscopic surgery.

EUS-guided hybrid rendezvous technique as salvage for standard rendezvous with intra-hepatic bile duct approach.

Project description:EUS-guided rendezvous technique (EUS-RV) is an effective salvage technique for failed biliary cannulation during ERCP. However, it is still difficult to achieve cannulation in some cases, especially using the intrahepatic bile duct (IHBD) approach, which requires complicated guidewire manipulation. EUS-hybrid rendezvous technique (HRV) has been applied as a salvage technique for difficult guidewire placement during EUS-RV with IHBD approach. The aims of this study were to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EUS-HRV using a retrospective study. Database analysis revealed 29 patients who underwent EUS-RV for difficult biliary cannulation. Among them, 8 patients underwent EUS-HRV as a salvage technique for difficult guidewire placement during EUS-RV with the IHBD approach. In EUS-HRV, a 6-French dilator was advanced into the biliary system for better guidewire manipulation. After successful guidewire placement, the EUS scope was exchanged for a duodenoscope, keeping the guidewire and dilator in place. The EUS-placed guidewire was retrieved through the duodenoscope, followed by cannulation over the guidewire. The dilator remained at the fistula until completion of the procedure. The analysis showed that the guidewire placement and the subsequent scope exchange and deep biliary cannulation after the retrieval of the EUS-placed guidewire were successfully conducted for all 8 patients. Mild pancreatitis was recognized as an adverse event in 1 patient. The overall success rate of EUS-RV combined with EUS-HRV was improved up to 90% (26/29). Our results suggested that EUS-HRV can be an effective and safe salvage technique in cases wherein guidewire placement is difficult during EUS-RV with IHBD approach.

Oblique bile duct predisposes to the recurrence of bile duct stones.

Project description:Background and study aimsBile stones represent a highly prevalent condition and abnormalities of the biliary tree predispose to stone recurrence due to development of biliary stasis. In our study, we assessed the importance of an altered bile duct course for stone formation.Patients and methods1,307 patients with choledocholithiasis in the absence of any associated hepatobiliary disease who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) between 2002 and 2009 were analysed. The angle enclosed between the horizontal portion of the common bile duct (CBD) and the horizontal plane was measured (angle ?). Oblique common bile duct (OCBD) was defined as a CBD with angle ? < 45°.Results103 patients (7.9%) were found to harbour OCBD and these were compared to 104 randomly selected control subjects. Compared to controls, OCBD patients were (i) significantly older (72 ± 13 vs. 67 ± 13, p<0.00001); (ii) more frequently underwent a cholecystectomy (p = 0.02) and biliary surgery (p = 0.003) prior to the diagnosis and (iii) more often developed chronic pancreatitis (p = 0.04) as well as biliary fistulae (p = 0.03). Prior to and after ERCP, OCBD subjects displayed significantly elevated cholestatic parameters and angle ? negatively correlated with common bile duct diameter (r = -0.29, p = 0.003). OCBD subjects more often required multiple back-to-back ERCP sessions to remove bile stones (p = 0.005) as well as more ERCPs later on due to recurrent stone formation (p<0.05).ConclusionOCBD defines a novel variant of the biliary tree, which is associated with chronic cholestasis, hampers an efficient stone removal and predisposes to recurrence of bile duct stones.
