Biliary stone disease is one of the most common medical conditions that can lead to hospitalization and surgical intervention. Choledocholithiasis develops in approximately 10e20% of patients with gallbladder stones, while approximately 3e10% of patients undergoing cholecystectomy will have common bile duct (CBD) stones. The CBD stones can cause cholangitis, obstructive jaundice, acute pancreat...
Untreated biliary cholestasis such as in the case of choledocholithiasis with biliary obstruction can lead to inflammatory strictures, recurrent cholangitis, the formation of more stones and eventually secondary biliary cirrhosis. This can lead to a shortened life expectancy. We report a case of a 61 year old male from Somalia, who presented with recurrent painless jaundice. He had had similar ...
Biliary tract cancers, encompassing the gallbladder, extrahepatic bile duct, and ampulla of Vater, are uncommon yet highly fatal malignancies. Gallstones, the primary risk factor for biliary cancers, are linked with hyperlipidemia. We examined the associations of 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms of five genes in the lipid metabolism pathway with the risks of biliary cancers and stones in a po...
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Bile 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 METHODS 1,307 patients with choledocholithiasis in the absence of any associated hepatobiliary disease wh...
Biliary tract cancer, encompassing tumors of the gallbladder, extrahepatic bile ducts and ampulla of Vater, is a rare but highly fatal malignancy. Obesity and gallstones, both related to insulin resistance, are linked to an elevated risk of biliary cancer. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and the retinoid X receptors (RXRs), expressed in adipose tissue, play a key role in...
A 43-year old woman was admitted 11 days after open cholecystectomy with a iatrogenic bile duct injury. On admission the patient showed an uncontrolled biliary fistula through an external drain placed at an emergency laparotomy for biliary peritonitis with fever and jaundice. PTC showed a biliary stricture type II (Bismuth). A percutaneous drainage was performed to decompress the biliary system...
Because of the increasing frequency of surgical procedures such as hepatic resection, partial liver transplantation, and laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the number of patients requiring biliary imaging has increased. In this report, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography findings of a case with an aberrant right posterior hepatic duct draining directly into the gallbladder, which was overloo...
BACKGROUND Less than 67% of patients with intermediate risk for common bile duct (CBD) stones require therapeutic intervention. It is important to have an accurate, safe, and reliable method for the definitive diagnosis of CBD stones before initiating therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Few publications detail the diagnostic efficacy of linear echoendoscopy (EUS) ...
Ninety percent of patients with intraductal biliary stones are successfully treated with sphincterotomy and subsequent stone extraction. However, technical difficulty increases with stone size and giant stones require fragmenation to facilitate endoscopic removal. For stones too large to be engaged in a basket for mechanical lithotripsy laser and electrohydraulic lithotripsy have been proposed ...
