Study of Relationship Between the Blood Supply of the Extrahepatic Bile Duct and Duct Supply Branches from Gastroduodenal Artery on Imaging and Anatomy

Chinese Medical Journal, 2015
Background: Liver transplantation has become the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage acute or chronic hepatic disease. Bile duct complications are common events after liver transplantation.

Routine intra-operative cholangiography for safe laparoscopic cholecystectomy and single stage laparoscopic choledocholithotomy [PDF]

Ain-Shams Journal of Surgery, 2008
Background: While laparoscopic cholecystectomy is widely accepted for therapy of cholecystolithiasis, controversy still exists concerning the routine use of intra-operative cholangiography (IOC) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and its role in ...

SMAD4 Palmitoylation Drives a Metabolic‐Transcriptional Circuit to Promote Tumorigenesis and Confers Radiosensitivity in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies palmitoylation as a novel regulatory modification of SMAD4, mediated by ZDHHC22/APT2. It activates fatty acid synthesis, creating a self‐reinforcing SMAD4–FASN–palmitate feedback loop that drives pancreatic cancer growth and enhances radiotherapy sensitivity.

Laparoscopic trans-cystic common bile duct stone retrieval in a patient with gallbladder agenesis

, 2019
Gallbladder agenesis is a rare but well-documented anatomical variation. Pre-operative diagnosis may be difficult as patients can present with typical symptoms of biliary colic and imaging may be misleading. We report a case of choledochoscopy and common

Balancing Stealth and Targetability: cCPP‐ and PEG‐Modified Liposomes for the Targeted Delivery of Anti‐HER2 Nanobodies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study addresses the rapid renal clearance of anti‐HER2 nanobodies by developing specialized liposomal carriers. It details the formulation of dual modified liposomes, demonstrating how PEGylation preserves structural integrity and cell‐penetrating peptides enhance cellular interaction.

Spontaneous rupture of the common hepatic duct associated with acute pancreatitis: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background Rupture of the common bile duct is a life-threatening condition, usually observed after a trauma or in association with choledocholithiasis or an obstructive tumor of the bile duct.

The termination of the common bile duct

Journal of British Surgery, 1974
Abstract Abnormal terminations of the common bile duct, as demonstrated by operative cholangiography, occurred in 23 per cent of 120 patients with biliary tract disease. The importance of this observation in biliary surgery is discussed.

The supraduodenal pedicle can be a useful landmark of the common bile duct in laparoscopic cholecystectomy

, 2021
This investigation was undertaken to determine whether the supraduodenal pedicle (SP) can assist in defining the location of the common bile duct (CBD) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).

Melatonin Alleviates Graft Biliary Fibrosis by Inhibiting VIM+ Cholangiocyte Subcluster via Hypoxia/TGF‐β‐CREM‐VIM Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing verified the presence of the VIM+ biliary epithelial cell (BEC) in the bile ducts of NAS patients. The hypoxia/TGF‐β‐CREM‐VIM axis mediated phenotypic switch toward VIM+ BEC is validated using a hypoxia/TGF‐β‐stimulated cellular model, a rat liver transplantation model, BEC‐specific Crem conditional knockout rats, and BEC ...
