Postoperative wound infection rates after biliary tract surgery vary tremendously from 2% after uncomplicated cholecystectomy to 20% in series including many jaundiced patients. Almost all such infections arise from organisms growing in the diseased biliary tract, since infection rate of 1% are achieved when the bile is sterile.

The use of the laparoscope in biliary tract surgery continues to play a major role in improving the operative management of patients with biliary diseases. Laparascopic cholecystectomy has been safely performed as a day-case procedure and has lowered the morbidity of cholecystectomy in the setting of acute cholecystitis.

In the United States, an estimated 20,000 new cases of liver and biliary tract cancer are diagnosed annually.1 Biliary tract cancer is the second most common primary hepatobiliary cancer, after hepatocellular cancer. Approximately 7500 new cases of biliary tract cancer are diagnosed per year; about 5000 of these are gallbladder cancer, and between 2000

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2009
Biliary tract interventions remain a tremendous technical challenge to the interventionalist and require appropriate clinical postprocedural management. The increased use of endoscopy for biliary tract evaluation and intervention has served to largely replace percutaneous techniques, resulting in a decreased number of patients requiring primary ...

Abstract 1. 1. Experience with 109 consecutive cases of biliary tract disease over a ten-year period from 1940 to 1950 demonstrates that no absolute rule can be applied in any series of cases. A guide to therapy is offered through the posing of three questions regarding the warranty of surgical intervention, proper time for surgery and operative ...

Reconstruction of the Biliary Tract
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1985The history of biliary reconstruction is a record of almost 100 years of surgical advancement. A reasonable technique is now available and applies not only to reconstruction after injury in the course of cholecystectomy but also to reconstruction after resection of tumor or in the treatment of sclerosing cholangitis, choledochocyst, or biliary calculi.

In addition to the detection of gallstones, common bile duct stones, and narrowed and dilated bile ducts, recent advancements in imaging techniques now make it possible to diagnose microlithiasis, pathology of normal-size ducts, and dysfunction of the gallbladder and the sphincter of Oddi (SO).

Gallstones are responsible for the majority of biliary tract emergencies and will be the main focus of this article. Gallstones present with features related to the site of the calculi and are therefore considered separately. Cholecystolithiasis refers to gallstones confined to the gallbladder, whereas choledocholithiasis refers to gallstones within ...

Cholangiocarcinomas are malignant tumors that arise from the epithelium of the intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts. Cholangiocarcinomas are rare compared with hepatocellular carcinoma, comprising less than 10% of primary malignancies of the liver [1].
