Hepatic hydatid cyst is one of the common public health problems in Maghreb, remains a benign pathology, but its seriousness concerns complications, which are largely dominated by cystic rupture bile ducts.The aim this study to highlight difficulty surgical treatment hydatic cyst, localized central part liver and ruptured biliary ducts with place endoscopywe report cases three patients hepatic ...

The functional interrelationship between biliary cholesterol secretion, sinusoidal lipoprotein cholesterol secretion and bile salt synthesis was studied in the rat. Diosgenin, fructose, and colestipol in the diet were used to, respectively, influence biliary cholesterol output, VLDL production and bile salt synthesis. In the acute bile fistula rat, biliary cholesterol output was 700% increased ...

Spontaneous choledochoduodenal fistula in the absence of primary biliary disease is a very unusual complication of duodenal ulcer disease. In most cases it is diagnosed incidentally, because it seldom gives clinical manifestations. Although surgical approaches have been the treatment of choice in the past, the use of modern antisecretory drugs turns now management strategy to more controversial...

A biliobronchial fistula is an abnormal communication between the biliary tract and the bronchial tree. It may be a rare complication after treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). We present a case of a 71-year-old man that developed a biliobronchial fistula as a complication of hepatocellular carcinoma treated with TACE. It was successfully d...

Direct drain of the cystic duct and drain of the biliary tract through an internal fistula into the duodenum in a 81-year-old man were endoscopically diagnosed without an operation.

Somatostatin is a potent inhibitory hormone, it's synthetic analogue is more potent and has a prolonged action. It has a wide range of actions in the gastrointestinal system; among which is an anticholeritic action on bile secretion. The use of Sandostatin in the management of a case of complicated biliary fistula is reported; it controlled the fistula reducing its daily output from 200 ml to l...

Cholecystocolic fistula is a rare cause of diarrhoea, and the diagnosis may be significantly delayed. Air in the biliary tree on imaging should raise suspicion, and barium enema or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography will be diagnostic. Cholestyramine should provide effective symptomatic relief until definitive treatment is arranged. We report on two patients with cholecystocolic fis...

Hemobilia is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal tract bleeding. Most cases are iatrogenic following medical interventions, most commonly liver biopsy and transhepatic cholangiography. We present a case of arteriobiliary fistula between the right hepatic artery and the common hepatic duct, in a case of Mirrizi syndrome, following endoscopic biliary stenting and presenting with hemobilia. The...

We report the case of a 55-year-old patient presenting with biliary obstruction caused by coil migration from a recently performed embolization of a post-traumatic gastroduodenal artery pseudoaneurysm. Based on imaging findings, biliary drain placement was initially performed and the subsequent endoscopy demonstrated coil erosion into the common bile duct and duodenum, resulting in choledochodu...

There are several varieties of bilioenteric fistulae. They are usually incidental findings, but once detected, various modalities can then be employed to further delineate the fistula. The fistulae usually arise as a complication of chronic duodenal ulcer disease, cholelithiasis or previous instrumentation to the biliary system. The presence of a fistula per se does not immediately equate to ne...
