Current management of biliary strictures

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2004
The definitive management of benign biliary strictures depends upon numerous factors, including the complexity and location of the stricture, the degree of inflammation and fibrosis, the presence of ongoing infection or sepsis, and the capability and experience of the surgeon and interventional radiologist at the institution.For some,such as high-risk ...

Benign Biliary Strictures and Leaks [PDF]

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 2015
The major causes of benign biliary strictures include surgery, chronic pancreatitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and autoimmune cholangitis. Biliary leaks mainly occur after surgery and, rarely, abdominal trauma. These conditions may benefit from a nonsurgical approach in which endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) plays a pivotal ...

Biliary stricture: A continuing study

The American Journal of Surgery, 1976
Fortunately, benign stricture is becoming a much less frequently encountered problem in biliary surgery. This must be largely explained by repetitious warnings in the literature and by teachers during the past thirty years. Our efforts now perhaps should be directed toward early recognition and treatment of ductal injuries before irreversible liver ...

Management of Hilar Biliary Strictures

The American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2008
Biliary strictures at the liver hilum are caused by a heterogeneous group of benign and malignant conditions. In the absence of a clear-cut benign etiology, i.e. bile duct damage during surgery, hilar biliary strictures remain a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for which a multidisciplinary approach is often necessary. A definitive diagnosis can be

Management of Benign Biliary Strictures

CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 2002
Benign biliary strictures are most commonly a consequence of injury at laparoscopic cholecystectomy or fibrosis after biliary-enteric anastomosis. These strictures are notoriously difficult to treat and traditionally are managed by resection and fashioning of a choledocho- or hepato-jejunostomy. Promising results are being achieved with newer minimally

Biliary Strictures Complicating Pancreaticoduodenectomy

International Journal of Gastrointestinal Cancer, 2000
Biliary-enteric anastomotic strictures may complicate pancreaticoduodenectomy. Anastomotic ischaemia and reflux of gastric and enteric contents with secondary bacterobilia and cholangitis may contribute.Four patients (3 females, 1 male) with a mean age of 50 yr (range 26-73 yr) presented 1-12 yr following pancreaticoduodenectomy with features ...

Biliary Endoscopy for Benign and Malignant Biliary Strictures

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2019
Percutaneous endoscopy operated by interventional radiologists has the potential to become an effective tool to both help diagnose and treat benign and malignant biliary strictures. This is particularly true in cases where endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography fails or is not feasible due to surgically-altered anatomy.

Tubercular biliary stricture - a malignant masquerade

South African Journal of Surgery, 2013
Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is the most common cause of a stricture in the hilar region, and hilar stricture in the absence of any previous surgical intervention should be considered to indicate malignant disease until proven otherwise. We present a rare case of isolated hilar tubercular stricture, all the features of which were suggestive of malignancy.

BENIGN STRICTURES OF THE BILIARY DUCTS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1947
The management of benign strictures of the biliary ducts is one of the most difficult problems in abdominal surgery. While the diagnosis is usually evident from the history, the operative intervention to restore the normal flow of bile into the gastrointestinal tract presents many technical problems and requires the greatest ingenuity on the part of ...
