A history of gastrectomy is a risk factor for choledocholithiasis in patients undergoing cholecystectomy: A single center retrospective study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study suggests that gastrectomy is a risk factor for choledocholithiasis. Especially in terms of the differences in reconstruction methods, the median time from gastrectomy to development of choledocholithiasis was 5.5 years for Roux‐en‐Y, which was significantly faster than 20 years for Billroth I and 35 years for Billroth II ...

New Endoscopic Strategy for Ampullary Tumor and Superficial Nonampullary Duodenal Epithelial Tumor Extending Into Papillary Area

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Study Aim Endoscopic papillectomy (EP) is widely performed for avoiding high‐risk surgeries. However, recurrence rates are high, and lateral extension is a risk for recurrence. With endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), even lesions with lateral extensions are able to be en bloc resected, and may reduce that risk.
