Here, we present a case of malignant biliary tract obstruction with severe obesity, which was successfully treated by endoscopic ultrasonography-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD). A female patient in her sixties who had been undergoing chemotherapy for unresectable pancreatic head cancer was admitted to our institution for obstructive jaundice. She had diabetes mellitus, and her body mass index ...
BACKGROUND Cancer in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common genetic disorder in Caucasians, has been a rare event. However, more patients now reach adulthood, and more patients undergo organ transplantation-factors associated with an increased cancer risk. Our aim was to assess the risk of cancer in nontransplanted and transplanted CF patients. METHODS We followed 28 858 patients...
Interventional radiologists fi rst became involved in the management of malignant obstruction of the biliary tree in the late 1960s, when Kaude et al. introduced nonsurgical biliary drainage. Since then, improved diagnostic imaging techniques, significant developments in interventional radiology, and the results of clinical trials have revolutionized and clearly defi ned the role of percutaneou...
Gallbladder cancer is a common malignancy of the biliary tract. It is the fifth common malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract in United States and third in Northern India. Despite such high prevalence, there is scanty published literature about this disease in indexed journals. Therefore, this article is intended to provide a brief overview of gallbladder cancer risk factors, based mainly on ...
BACKGROUND Cisplatin and gemcitabine is the standard first-line chemotherapy regimen for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer; expression of VEGF and its receptors is associated with adverse outcomes. We aimed to assess the effect of the addition of cediranib (an oral inhibitor of VEGF receptor 1, 2, and 3) to cisplatin and gemcitabine on progression-free survival. METHODS In this mult...
Biliary tract cancer is of highly malignancy with a poor 5-year survival. However, established chemotherapeutic regimens have not yet been established. Previously, we have reported that hMLH1, a mismatch repair (MMR) gene was frequently (57%) found to be lacking in surgically resected biliary tract carcinomas and the patients lacking the expression of hMLH1 revealed a poorer prognosis than thos...
PURPOSE The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the relationship between UGT1A1 polymorphisms and toxicities in Chinese patients with pancreatic or biliary tract cancer receiving irinotecan-containing regimens as the second- or third-line chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 36 patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer and 12 patients with unresectable biliary tract...
Bile is normally sterile. Bactibilia occurs when bile flow is impaired and bacteria gain access to the biliary duct by the papilla or portal circulation. Bile duct obstruction leads sequentially to increase in intra biliary pressure, infection of bile, cholangiovenous and cholangiolymphatic reflux leading to bacteremia [1-3]. The bacteria described commonly in biliary tract infections include E...
