Traumatic Bile Duct Injuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The vast majority of bile duct injuries is iatrogenic and occurs during abdominal surgeries or other interventions such as endoscopic or percutaneous cannulation of the biliary tree. Accidental traumas are responsible only for 1–5% of the total number of

Normothermic machine perfusion reduces bile duct injury and improves biliary epithelial function in rat donor livers

open access: yesLiver transplantation, 2016
Bile duct injury may occur during liver procurement and transplantation, especially in livers from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has been shown to reduce hepatic injury compared to static cold storage

Active Learning-Based Multistage Sequential Decision-Making Model with Application on Common Bile Duct Stone Evaluation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Multistage sequential decision-making scenarios are commonly seen in the healthcare diagnosis process. In this paper, an active learning-based method is developed to actively collect only the necessary patient data in a sequential manner. There are two novelties in the proposed method.

Bile Duct Ligation in Mice: Induction of Inflammatory Liver Injury and Fibrosis by Obstructive Cholestasis

open access: yesJournal of Visualized Experiments, 2015
In most vertebrates, the liver produces bile that is necessary to emulsify absorbed fats and enable the digestion of lipids in the small intestine as well as to excrete bilirubin and other metabolic products. In the liver, the experimental obstruction of

Evaluation of Direct Haptic 4D Volume Rendering of Partially Segmented Data for Liver Puncture Simulation [PDF]

open access: yesNature - Scientific Reports, Nature Publishing Group (NPG), 7(671), 2017, 2017
This work presents an evaluation study using a force feedback evaluation framework for a novel direct needle force volume rendering concept in the context of liver puncture simulation. PTC/PTCD puncture interventions targeting the bile ducts have been selected to illustrate this concept.

Endoscopic ultrasound versus magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography for common bile duct stones.

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015
BACKGROUND Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) are tests used in the diagnosis of common bile duct stones in patients suspected of having common bile duct stones prior to undergoing invasive treatment. There

Spread of Intraductal Papillary Neoplasm Arising from the Cystic Duct of the Biliary Tree

open access: yesCase Reports in Gastroenterology, 2016
Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a variant type of the bile duct carcinoma characterized by intraductal growth. IPNB is also recognized as a precursor of invasive carcinoma.

Management of major bile duct injuries following laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy - single center experience [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2019
Introduction/Objective. Bile duct injuries represent a devastating and potentially life-threatening consequence of cholecystectomy. Although most cholecystectomies are currently performed laparoscopically, some complex cases require an open approach. The

A Case of Right Hepatic Artery Syndrome Diagnosed by Using SpyGlassDSTM System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We report the case of a 68-year-old woman who had abdominal pain and slightly elevated biliary enzymes. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography detected biliary duct stenosis, while contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging showed that the right ...

Bile dynamics within the biliary tract and microfluidic-based bile component detection: A review [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Bilestones are solid masses found in the gallbladder or biliary tract, which block the normal bile flow and eventually result in severe life-threatening complications. Studies have shown that bilestone formation may be related to bile flow dynamics and the concentration level of bile components.
