Objectives Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PCC) is a complex disorder involving the hepatic hilum. Multiple endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography sessions are necessary for diagnosis and treatment with underlying cholangitis risk.

Balloon Enteroscopy-Assisted Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography for the Treatment of Common Bile Duct Stones in Patients with Roux-en-Y Gastrectomy: Outcomes and Factors Affecting Complete Stone Extraction [PDF]
Background: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for extraction of common bile duct (CBD) stones in patients with Roux-en-Y gastrectomy (RYG) remains technically challenging.

Dynamic portrait of the retrograde 1:1 mean motion resonance [PDF]
Asteroids in mean motion resonances with giant planets are common in the solar system, but it was not until recently that several asteroids in retrograde mean motion resonances with Jupiter and Saturn were discovered. A retrograde co-orbital asteroid of Jupiter, 2015 BZ509 is confirmed to be in a long-term stable retrograde 1:1 mean motion resonance ...

Gallstone-induced acute pancreatitis is a prevalent condition that is associated with an unacceptably high mortality rate. Early endoscopic intervention, including endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic sphincterotomy within 24 to ...

Imaging Features of Adult Choledochal Cysts: a Pictorial Review [PDF]
Choledochal cysts are rare congenital anomalies which are principally diagnosed by disproportional dilatation of the extrahepatic bile ducts. In addition, choledochal cysts are believed to arise from the anomalous union of the common bile duct and ...

On the Instability of Saturn's Hypothetical Retrograde Co-orbitals [PDF]
We find an interesting fact that fictitious retrograde co-orbitals of Saturn, or small bodies inside the retrograde 1:1 resonance with Saturn, are highly unstable in our numerical simulations. It is shown that in the presence of Jupiter, the retrograde co-orbitals will get ejected from Saturn's co-orbital space within a timescale of 10 Myr.

Stability of prograde and retrograde planets in circular binary systems [PDF]
We investigate the stability of prograde versus retrograde planets in circular binary systems using numerical simulations. We show that retrograde planets are stable up to distances closer to the perturber than prograde planets. We develop an analytical model to compute the prograde and retrograde mean motion resonances' locations and separatrices.

Background: Obesity can be treated with bariatric surgery; but, excessive weight loss may lead to diseases of the bile duct such as cholelithiasis and choledocholithiasis.

Abstract Background The prognosis for unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (phCCA) is extremely poor. Liver transplantation in combination with neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy has become the treatment of choice for unresectable phCCA in the USA.
