COMPARISON OF ULTRASOUND WITH ENDOSCOPIC RETROGRADE CHOLANGIOPANCREATOGRAPHY AND SURGERY IN THE DETECTION OF SITE AND CAUSE BILE DUCTS DILATATION [PDF]
background and Objectives: Ultrasound (US) is the initial imaging test used in the evaluation of patients with biliary tract disease. Our retrospective study was designed to evaluate the capacity of ultrasound to determine the cause and site of bile ...

ABSTRACT Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the standard procedure for biliary drainage; however, access can be challenging in patients with altered anatomy or tumor‐related distortion. Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) is a common alternative, yet it is not always feasible, particularly in patients with prior

ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is usually performed for unresectable malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) when endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography‐guided biliary stenting with fully covered self‐expandable metallic stents (EBS‐MSs) fails.

In this single‐center retrospective study of anastomotic biliary strictures after living donor liver transplantation, intraductal fully covered self‐expandable metal stents (ID‐FCSEMSs) achieved durable stricture resolution with low restenosis. Compared with multiple plastic stents, ID‐FCSEMS were associated with fewer late biliary complications and a ...

ABSTRACT Migration of clips used in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is rare, but when a clip migrates into the bile duct, it can serve as a nucleus for common bile duct stone formation and trigger acute cholangitis. An elderly woman in her 80s underwent LC for cholecystolithiasis at another hospital in year X.

ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is a technically demanding procedure performed predominantly at centers with high expertise. Its feasibility and learning curves in inexperienced centers remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the initial clinical outcomes and learning curves of EUS‐HGS implemented in ...

Migration of Fish Bones to the Bile Duct Following Hepaticojejunostomy
ABSTRACT Objectives Migration of fish bones into the bile duct is rare, but can cause bile duct stone formation or acute cholangitis. Herein, we examine the characteristics of this phenomenon. Methods This single‐center, retrospective study enrolled patients with a history of fish bone extraction from the bile duct by an endoscopic procedure at our ...
