Transhepatic Biliary Drainage

The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) in patients with duodenal stump leakage (DSL) and afference loop syndrome (ALS) postgastrectomy for malignancy or benign ulcer perforation. Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) is an interventional radiologic procedure used to promote bile drainage. Duodenal stump leakage (DSL) and afferent loop syndrome (ALS) can be serious complications after gastrectomy. From January 2002 through December 2014, we retrospectively reviewed 19 patients who underwent PTBD secondary to DSL and ALS postgastrectomy. In this study, a PTBD tube was placed in the proximal duodenum near the stump or distal duodenum in order to decompress and drain bile and pancreatic fluids. Nine patients with DSL and 10 patients with ALS underwent PTBD. The mean hospital stay was 34.3 days (range, 12 to 71) in DSL group and 16.4 days (range, 6 to 48) in ALS group after PTBD. A liquid or soft diet was started within 2.6 days (range, 1 to 7) in the ALS group and within 3.4 days (range, 0 to 15) in the DSL group after PTBD. One patient with DSL had PTBD changed, and 2 patients with ALS underwent additional surgical interventions after PTBD. The PTBD procedure, during which the tube was inserted into the duodenum, was well-suited for decompression of the duodenum as well as for drainage of bile and pancreatic fluids. This procedure can be an alternative treatment for cases of DSL and ALS postgastrectomy.
