Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 1999
Cholangiocytes, the cells lining the bile ducts, are now recognized as important contributors to and modulators of bile formation. During the last few years, remarkable insights have been made into the mechanisms of fluid, electrolyte, and solute transport by biliary epithelia, as well as increasing knowledge of the complex endocrine, paracrine, and ...

Biliary tract disease associated with calculi (gallstones) causes much disability and shortening or curtailment of life. At present there is insufficient knowledge to prevent the occurrence or development of gallstones. With the accomplishments of recent decades in preventing such diseases as typhoid fever, tetanus and poliomyelitis, and the control of

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2001
Advances in cellular and molecular biology of extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder adenocarcinoma are providing innovative means for the diagnosis and treatment of biliary tract cancer. Similarly, refinements in noninvasive studies--including helical computed tomography, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography, and endoscopic ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2003
AbstractThe biliary tree extends from the canals of Hering at the margin of the most peripheral portal tracts to the ampulla of Vater. Malformations occur at every level of this structure. Phenotypic features dominate present understanding of these malformations and of the disorders with which they are associated. Classifications of disease will likely

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1977
Many of the complications of biliary tract surgery are seen in elderly patients who also possess significant cardiopulmonary deficits, diabetes mellitus, and other disorders of advancing age. Operations in this group of patients could in many cases be avoided by the decision for earlier cholecystectomy in younger patients with symptomatic and ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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).

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].
