Peroral direct cholangioscopy for recurrent bile duct stones, using an ultrathin upper endoscope.
are rare, and occur when there is bile stasis and a nidus for stone conglomeration [1,2]. Endoscopic examination of the bile duct has traditionally been difficult and is not routinely performed. We report the first case of management of recurrent bile duct stones using an ultrathin upper endoscope. A 54-year-old woman presented for endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) for removal of bili...
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 کاملDetection of mucin-hypersecreting bile duct tumor by direct peroral cholangioscopy.
bile duct tumor is difficult because of ambiguity caused by the abundant mucin secretion and/or by the superficial mucosal spread of the tumor along the bile duct [1]. We report the case of a 77-year-old patient, who initially presented with severe jaundice, right upper abdominal pain, and fever. The endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) demonstrated a large amount of viscous mu...
متن کاملThe efficacy of peroral cholangioscopy for difficult bile duct stones and indeterminate strictures: a systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Current evidence supporting the efficacy of peroral cholangioscopy (POC) in the evaluation and management of difficult bile duct stones and indeterminate strictures is limited. The aims of this systematic review and meta-analysis were to assess the following: the efficacy of POC for the therapy of difficult bile duct stones, the diagnostic accuracy of POC for the evalu...
متن کاملElectrohydraulic lithotripsy of large bile duct stones under direct cholangioscopy with a double-balloon endoscope.
The use of a short double-balloon endoscope facilitates the endoscopic removal of bile duct stones in patients with surgically altered anatomy [1,2]. However, the narrow and long working channel of the double-balloon endoscope occasionally makes the procedure difficult and timeconsuming. Herein, we present the case of a patient with a history of hepaticojejunostomy in whom large bile duct stone...
