Visualizing biliary tracts with isosulphan blue to prevent injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a preliminary cadaveric study

, 2015
Bile duct injury (BDI) as a complication of laparoscopic cholecystectomy may result in biliary cirrhosis with a high morbidity-mortality rate. Recurrent invasive procedures may be required for the optimum management. The most frequent causative factor in

Rare anatomical variants encountered during laparoscopic cholecystectomy in low resource conditions and the convenient concept of the safe zone of dissection: a prospective observational study at a single center

Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery
Purpose: The severity of surrounding adhesions, anomalous anatomy, and technical issues are the main factors that complicate cholecystectomy. This study focused on determining the types and frequency of laparoscopic anatomical variations found during ...

Subclinical focal cholangitis mimicking liver metastasis in asymptomatic patients with history of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and biliary tree intervention

Cancer Imaging, 2017
Background Cholangitis is an inflammatory process of the biliary tract with a wide range of clinical manifestations and it is not always considered in the differential diagnosis in asymptomatic patients.

Biliary tract obstruction secondary to cancer: management guidelines and selected literature review.

, 1987
Malignant biliary tract obstruction (MBTO) due to either primary biliary tract cancer or metastasis to the porta hepatis is a common clinical problem. The most common metastatic tumors causing MBTO in order of frequency are gastric, colon, breast, and ...

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

Stenting of the biliary tract in children.

, 2002
We report on the technique and results of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) in children with obstructive jaundice. Three patients aged 8 - 15 years were treated, two of them for a benign and one for a malignant stricture.

Human Gut Bacteria and Lipidic Nanoparticles: Particle Composition Predicts Structural Transformation and Bacterial Biocompatibility

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lipidic nanoparticles (LNPs) were incubated with 21 gut bacteria frequently associated with the human microbiome. SAXS revealed that ∼75% of tested species induced structural transformations in monoolein LNPs, whereas phytantriol and phospholipid formulations remained unaffected.

Percutaneous creation of new bilioenteric anastomosis in a patient with accidentally failed hepaticojejunostomy

Journal of Minimal Access Surgery
If the cause of the bile leakage after hepaticojejunostomy is accidental non-anastomosis of one bile duct, it is unlikely that the leakage will resolve spontaneously, and reoperation may be necessary.
