UPPER GASTROINTESTINAL BLEEDING AND ACUTE PAINFUL EPIGASTRIC MASS DUE TO RUPTURE OF HYDATID CYST INTO THE DUODENUM

Various complications of hydatid cyst have been recognized to date. We have encountered one such complication-rupture of hydatid cyst to the duodenum­ leading to upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a 40 year old male, who referred with severe right upper quadrant (RUQ) pain and gastrointestinal bleeding of a few hours' duration. Laparotomy revealed a cyst (7 x 15 cm) in the left lobe of the ...

Major duodenal papilla and its normal anatomy.

The major duodenal papilla (papilla of Vater) is the point where the dilated junction of the bile and pancreatic ducts (ampulla of Vater) enter the duodenum. The ampulla is surrounded by the sphincter of Oddi, which not only controls the flow of bile and pancreatic juice into the duodenum, but also prevents the reflux of duodenal contents, bile and pancreatic juice into the bile and pancreatic ...

Bile secretion in the fistulated pig: effect of the method used for bile reinfusion.

The aim of this work was to investigate the effects on bile secretion of flow rate and site of reinfusion of the collected bile to the animal. Thirty-two pigs weighing 50 +/- 3 kg at the beginning of the experiment were fitted with a reentrant fistula in the lower common bile duct and in the upper duodenum. Bile collected from the bile duct was reinfused in four different ways (four groups of 8...
