Aim. Determination of the effectiveness of the improved method of sphincterotomy in choledocholithiasis, called radial sphincterotomy. Methods. Analyzed were results of 38 operations performed by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with a diagnosis of choledocholithiasis. In the first group (23 patients) performed a standard sphincterotomy, in the second group - radial sphincterotomy. 21 patients of the first group had gallstones up to 20 mm, 2 patients - more than 20 mm; in 6 patients (out of 15) of a second group gallstones sizes exceeded 20 mm, the other patients had stones sizes 15-20 mm. Results. The technique developed radial sphincterotomy allows multiple incisions towards 11, 12 and 13 hour clock directions. Thus, the main incision can be made to the transverse folds, and other radial incisions should be carried out below it, not going beyond the proposed location of the intramural common bile duct. Anatomical and mathematical justifications of the method of radial sphincterotomy were presented. Depending on the cut and shape of papillae, the severity of the upper transverse folds defining a safe distance from the hole until it papillae, performed lateral radial incisions, thereby achieving an increase of sphincterotomy cut altogether. Neither group registered death. In 2 (8.7%) patients of the first group bleeding occurred during the procedure, after the operation pancreatitis has developed in 1 (4.3%) patients in first group and in 1 (6.7%) patients in the second group. Conclusion. The proposed technique of radial sphincterotomy is a safe way to increase the area of dissected papillae to provide high efficiency for removal of large gallstones.

Aims. To investigate the effect of biliary stent placement without endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) on common bile duct stones (CBDS) disappearance and the contribution of preserving the duodenal papilla function to reduce recurrence of CBDS.Methods. Sixty-six patients admitted for acute obstructive cholangitis due to CBDS who underwent biliary stent placement without EST for 2 years from March 2011 were evaluated retrospectively. The second endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) was performed for treatment of CBDS 3 to 4 months after the first ERCP. We estimated the rate of stone disappearance at the time of second ERCP.Results. CBDS disappearance was observed in 32 (48.5%) of 66 patients. The diameter of the bile ducts and the diameter of CBDS in patients with CBDS disappearance were significantly smaller than in those with CBDS requiring extraction (p=0.007andp<0.001, resp.). Stone disappearance was evident when the diameter of bile ducts and that of CBDS were <10 and 7 mm, respectively (p=0.002).Conclusions. Short-term stent placement without EST eliminates CBDS while preserving duodenal papilla function and may be suitable for treating CBDS in patients with nondilated bile ducts and small CBDS.

Choledocholithiasis is a rare pathology in children. Various techniques have been proposed for removing calculi from the common bile duct: percutaneous puncture drainage of bile ducts, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with papillosphincterotomy as well as revision of the common bile duct which can be done laparoscopically or in the open abdomen. However at present, there is no any unified approach to managing this pahtology in children. The article describes authors’ experience of laparoscopic revision of the common bile duct in an infant with choledocholithiasis. The authors consider that this technique can be applied in pediatric surgical practice.

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.

A 34-year-old woman presented with a history of a previous laparoscopic cholecystectomy, followed within a few days by a formal laparotomy for a suspected bile duct injury. Approximately one week after the laparotomy, she developed a sinus on the anterior abdominal wall that was draining bile. She was then referred to our institution for further management. The earlier surgery was done at another hospital, and these details were not clear. A CT scan, including a CT sinogram, was performed. The sinogram was done by inserting a catheter into the sinus and running in diluted contrast under gravity. CT images showed the sinus tract communicating with a collection in the gallbladder fossa, as well as contrast opacification of the segment 6 and 7 bile ducts. A week later, an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) examination was performed. This showed no filling of the right posterior sectoral ducts but normal opacification of the other ducts. These findings led to the diagnosis of an aberrant right posterior sectoral bile duct that was not identified prior to surgery and that was damaged at the time of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This duct now drained into the gallbladder fossa, causing the collection and draining sinus.

Abstract. The aim of the research was to studying histological and some morphomethrics feathers of the liver and related with them lethality during experimental complete and partial obstruction of the extrahepatic bile ducts (COEHBD and POEHBD). Materials and methods. The experiment was included 83 rats that were sacrificed on the 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th and 35th days. COEHBD was modeled by ligation and transaction of the common bile duct, POEHBD was modeled by ligation of the common bile duct with a needle of a given diameter. Histological analyses of the liver was performed together with morphometric study. Results. The death of rats occurs during the first 3 days of the experiment and after 14 days, with a predominance of mortality on 14-35 days compared to the period up to 14 days (p<0.05). Death after 14 days of the experiment occurs in the model of complete cholestasis. From the all investigated morphometric measures such as the hepatocytes volume density (HVD), liver volume (LV), total hepatocytes volume (THV), the last one is the most accurately reflects the compensatory capabilities of the liver in conditions of complete and partial cholestasis and can serve as a criteria for predicting of the fatal outcome. Conclusion. The THV most accurately reflects the compensatory capabilities of the liver in experimental COEHBD and POEHBD and can serve as a criterion for predicting a fatal outcome.

Endoscopic Fistulotomy

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is established as the method of choice to investigate the biliary tree when obstruction is suspected. On rare occasions, the papilla cannot be entered because of anatomical or pathological abnormalities. This report describes endoscopic fistulotomy or the suprapapillary punch that has been carried out at the Foothills Hospital in Calgary, Alberta, on 30 of 623 patients referred for ERCP for conditions causing obstruction of the common bile duct or suspected obstruction of the common bile duct. The following communication also describes the method of suprapapillary punch or endoscopic fistulotomy. Results have been excellent with only one complication, a minor attack of pancreatitis after the procedure. In summary, the suprapapillary punch or fistulotomy is a safe and useful method for entering the common bile duct when access by the usual method is impossible.

Abstract Background Endoscopic balloon dilatation (EBD) is the established treatment for common bile duct (CBD) stones. Although pancreatitis and bleeding have been reported as major complications of EBD, balloon-related complications are rarely reported in EBD. Case presentation A 30-year-old woman with suspected CBD stones underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and EBD. During EBD, the balloon of the EBD catheter suddenly burst at the biliary sphincter. We therefore performed surgical intervention: removal of the broken EBD catheter and T-tube drainage. Finally, the patient was discharged without any complications. Conclusions We present a case involving a burst balloon of an EBD catheter as a rare complication during EBD, as well as the surgical technique that was used to treat this complication.
