AbstractThere is limited evidence supporting the usefulness of endoscopic retrograde pancreatic drainage (ERPD) for symptomatic pancreaticojejunal anastomotic stenosis (sPJS). We examined the usefulness of ERPD for sPJS. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 10 benign sPJS patients. A forward-viewing endoscope was used in all sessions. Following items were evaluated: technical success, adverse events, and clinical outcome of ERPD. The technical success rate was 100% (10/10) in initial ERPD; 9 patients had a pancreatic stent (no-internal-flap: n = 4, internal-flap: n = 5). The median follow-up was 920 days. Four patients developed recurrence. Among them, 3 had a stent with no-internal-flap in initial ERPD, the stent migrated in 3 at recurrence, and a stent was not placed in 1 patient in initial ERPD. Four follow-up interventions were performed. No recurrence was observed in 6 patients. None of the stents migrated (no-internal-flap: n = 1, internal-flap: n = 5) and no stents were replaced due to stent failure. Stenting with no-internal-flap was associated with recurrence (p = 0.042). Mild adverse events developed in 14.3% (2/14). In conclusions, ERPD was performed safely with high technical success. Recurrence was common after stenting with no-internal-flap. Long-term stenting did not result in stent failure.Clinical trial register and their clinical registration number: Nos. 58-115 and R2-9.

Abstract 【Background】 There is limited evidence demonstrating the usefulness of endoscopic retrograde pancreatic drainage (ERPD) for symptomatic pancreaticojejunal anastomotic stenosis (sPJS). We examined the usefulness of ERPD for sPJS. 【Methods】 We conducted a retrospective analysis of 10 benign sPJS patients. Following items were evaluated: technical success, adverse events and clinical outcome of ERPD. 【Results】 Technical success rate was 100% (10/10); 9 patients had a pancreatic stent (no-internal-flap: n=4, internal-flap: n=5). Median follow-up was 920 days. Four patients developed recurrence. Among them, 3 patients had a stent with no-internal-flap in initial ERPD and the stent migrated in 3 patients at recurrence, and a stent was not placed in 1 patient in initial ERPD. Four follow-up ERPD were performed. No recurrence was observed in 6 patients. Among them, none of the stents migrated (no-internal-flap: n=1, internal-flap: n=5), and none were replaced stents due to stent failure. A stent placement with no-internal-flap was associated with recurrence (p=0.042). Mild adverse events developed in 14.3% (2/14). 【Conclusions】 ERPD was performed safely with high technical success. Recurrence was common in a stent placement with no-internal-flap, which was associated with stent migration. Long-term stent placement didn’t result in stent failure.

Outpatient Appointments

A 49-year-old man was referred to our hospital for an abnormality of the hepatobiliary enzyme. The patient was diagnosed with primary sclerosing cholangitis 9 years ago, and he had a biliary stent with a string placed as an inside stent. We attempted to remove the stent 6 months later, but the string was cut off, so the stent could not be removed. Removal was attempted again, but the patient cancelled the outpatient appointments. During the examination performed at the present visit, we discovered that the biliary stent had migrated into the bile duct, and a stone had formed around the stent. We attempted to remove the stent-stone complex by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, but it was difficult; thus, we decided to implant a new biliary stent and remove the other stent later. When we performed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography again 2 days later, the bile duct axis was linearized thanks to the additional stent, enabling us to grab the migrated stent with stent-stone complex using grasping forceps and to successfully pull it out. By implanting an additional plastic stent temporarily, we were able to straighten the biliary axis and endoscopically remove the biliary stent that migrated and caused the development of stent-stone complex in a 2-staged approach.

Aim. To evaluate the short-and long-term outcomes after surgical repair of iatrogenic lesions of extrahepatic bile ducts depending on the timing of diagnosis in conditions of specialized clinic. Materials and methods. Our study involved a retrospective analysis of 159 patients who were treated for iatrogenic lesions of extrahepatic bile ducts during 1987-2017. These patients were divided into two groups depending on the timing of surgical treatments: early biliary reconstruction ( 5 days after bile duct transection) and late biliary reconstruction ( 5 days post-transection). These groups were compared on the basis of postoperative morbidity and long-term outcomes. Results. Following laparoscopic cholecystectomy, 2 patients received endoscopic retrograde stents due to bile leakage from the cystic ducts, and 14 patients underwent hepaticocholedochostomy using Ker drainage. The incidence of bile leakage was observed in 14. 3 % of cases during the early post-operative period, strictures appeared in 28.6 % of cases. Hepaticojejunostomy was performed in 91 cases: in 62 with stents and in 29 without stents. Bile leakage was observed in 17.6 % of cases, and strictures in 19.8 % of cases. Our statistical analyses revealed no significant differences between the two groups (i.e., early and late timing of surgical treatment) in the rates of bile leakage and strictures. The extent of surgeons experience in bile surgery significantly correlated with positive outcomes. Conclusions. Endoscopic retrograde stent proved to be an effective and fast solution in cases of bile leakage from cystic ducts following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Although it is preferable to perform reconstructive surgeries within the first five days after bile duct injury, our results indicated that in the presence of external bile fistula without peritonitis and severe cholangitis, reconstructive surgery can be performed in specialized surgical departments later than 5 days with satisfactory results.

Biliary sump syndrome is a rare condition. It is seen as a rare long-term complication in patients with a history of a side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy. In the era before endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy was a common surgical procedure for the management of biliary obstruction. In the setting of a side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy, the bile does not drain through the distal common bile duct anymore. Therefore, the part of the common bile duct distal from the choledochoduodenostomy anastomosis consequently transforms into a poorly drained reservoir, making this so-called “sump” prone to accumulation of debris. These patients are prone to cholangitis. We present a 64-year-old man with a history of side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy who presented with manifestations of cholangitis. An endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography confirmed a diagnosis of sump syndrome. The etiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment of biliary sump syndrome are discussed in this article.
