Aim. To evaluate the results of retrograde biliary stenting in patients with pancreatobiliary diseases. Methods. In 2008-2012, 85 retrograde biliary stenting procedures were performed in 65 patients (28 men and 37 women) with pancreatobiliary diseases aged 33 to 86 years. Obstructive jaundice was diagnosed in 44 of 65 patients (in 67% of cases), ascending cholangitis - in 14 (21%) patients. Endoscopic biliary stenting was performed in 47 patients with benign pancreatobiliary diseases (chronic and post-surgical pancreatitis, benign common bile duct stricture, Mirizzi syndrome, intradiverticular papilla, common bile duct bile stones) and in 18 patients with malignancies (cancers of pancreas head, bile ducts and papillary cancer). Plastic biliary stents with a (diameter 2.5 to 3.3 mm) were used for stenting. Results. Endoscopic biliary stenting allows to resolve the clinical manifestations of оbstructive jaundice and cholangitis, to eliminate pain, to prevent the development of pancreatitis, to prepare patients for surgery. Serious complications of biliary stenting (stent migration in common bile duct, acute cholangitis) were observed in 5 of 85 procedures (5.9% of cases), and all were resolved after repeated endoscopic intervention. Conclusion. Endoscopic retrograde biliary stenting is a safe and effective treatment option for patients with both benign and malignant pancreatobiliary diseases, it is characterized by low rate of specific complications (5.8%) and had reduced the risk of acute pancreatitis in patients with papillostenosis and stricture of the common bile duct terminal part down to 3%.

The main causes of cholangitis are hypertension in the biliary ducts and infection. In order to determine the place of the infectious factor in the acute cholangitis development, a retrospective and prospective analysis of case histories of 176 patients with choledocholithiasis and manifestations of acute and chronic cholangitis was performed. Bile from the common bile duct in the patients with obstruction of the biliary tract was studied. In the patients with mechanical jaundice without and with cholangitis, the intraductal pressure in the common bile duct averaged 227.3±26.1 mm of water column, in the patients without signs of cholangitis that was 97.5±8.3 mm of water column. With mechanical jaundice without acute cholangitis, it was slightly elevated if compared to normal. This suggests that the increase in pressure in the bile ducts in acute cholangitis is not influenced by the fact of obstruction of the biliary tract, and the development of the inflammatory process in them. In the patients with cholangitis, the initial values of the number of colonizing units were much higher than in "pure" choledocholithiasis. After endoscopic papillosphincterotomy in the patients with vivid clinical cholangitis, in whom decompression was achieved, in the control study, this value decreased by 100−500 times, which was accompanied by clinical improvement. According to the results of the study, it was noted that in the patients with a manifested clinic sign of cholangitis there is a significant decrease in the number of colonizing units on the third day after endoscopic papillosphincterotomy. At the stone stuck in a papilla the choledoch turns into so−called analog of an abscess. The opening of the papilla provides a free passage of the contents of the choledochus (i.e. pus) into the duodenum, so there is an almost instant therapeutic effect. The increase in pressure in the bile ducts in acute cholangitis is influenced by the development of an inflammatory process, which indicates the manifestations of biliary infection. The presented research has a prospective character and needs further development. Key words: cholangitis, biliary infection, intraductal pressure, bile.
