Cholangioscopy in bile duct disease: a case series.
CONTEXT Direct endoscopic visualization of biliopancreatic duct is certainly one of the greatest advances of therapeutic endoscopy. The use of a single-operator cholangioscopy platform (SpyGlass) is a promising technique in the evaluation of diseases such as indeterminate biliary stricture and giant choledocholitiasis. This is the first Brazilian case series using this technology. METHODS We ...
متن کاملDouble common bile duct visualized by SpyGlass cholangioscopy.
ly rare anomaly of the biliary tract system, which was first described by Vesalius in 1543 [1]. Recent advances in radiologic examinations have facilitated the correct diagnosis and management of this condition, but visualization of the anomaly using cholangioscopy has not been reported [2]. We report the finding of a double common bile duct with ectopic drainage into the duodenal bulb, which w...
متن کاملEarly Bile Duct Cancer Detected by Direct Peroral Cholangioscopy with Narrow-Band Imaging after Bile Duct Stone Removal
Cholangioscopy not only enables the direct visualization of the biliary tree, but also allows for forceps biopsy to diagnosis early cholangiocarcinoma. Recently, some reports have suggested the clinical usefulness of direct peroral cholangioscopy (POC) using an ultra-slim endoscope with a standard endoscopic unit by a single operator. Enhanced endoscopy, such as narrow band imaging (NBI), can b...
متن کاملVanishing bile duct syndrome in Hodgkin's disease: case report.
CONTEXT Liver damage is relatively common in patients affected by Hodgkin's disease. A smaller proportion of cases develops jaundice. Recently, the vanishing bile duct syndrome was described in Hodgkin's disease. The mechanisms of this severe complication have been poorly understood until now. OBJECTIVE To describe a rare case of intra-hepatic cholestasis due to vanishing bile duct syndrome. ...
متن کاملA Case of Adenocarcinoma in situ of the Distal Common Bile Duct Diagnosed by Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangioscopy
Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is often clinically challenging to diagnose. Even multidisciplinary approaches which include computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography are unsatisfactory in some cases, especially with biliary stricture. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy (PTCS) with its direct visualization for biopsy appears to be a promisi...
