Hepatolithiasis after hepatic portoenterostomy for biliary atresia

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2006
Hepatolithiasis after hepatic portoenterostomy for biliary atresia has been paid little attention, with only 22 reported cases.Fifteen patients underwent living-related liver transplantation for biliary atresia after hepatic portoenterostomy in our hospital between 1998 and 2004.

Kasai portoenterostomy—new insights from hepatic morphology

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2005
The aim of this paper was to investigate the mechanism of long-term biliary drainage after Kasai portoenterostomy by clinicopathologic study of hepatic morphology in explanted livers.Explanted livers from 13 consecutive children undergoing transplantation for biliary atresia were examined in detail using a standardized protocol.

The criteria for repeat hepatic portoenterostomy

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1986
Out of 80 patients with biliary atresia treated in the Department of Pediatric Surgery, Juntendo University, between 1977 and 1984, 10 (12.5%) underwent repeat hepatic portoenterostomy. The best results were obtained in patients who were less than 4 months of age, weighed more than "−2SD," and showed a slight degree of liver fibrosis with mild ...

Outcome of Early Hepatic Portoenterostomy for Biliary Atresia

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 2001
ABSTRACTBackgroundThe outcome of the hepatic portoenterostomy (Kasai) procedure for biliary atresia is improved when it is performed before 90 days of age. However, it is not known whether intervention before 30 days is better than intervention between 30 and 90 days.MethodsThe authors reviewed the records of all patients seen by the Pediatric ...

Percutaneus transhepatic cholangiodrainage after hepatic portoenterostomy for biliary atresia

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1980
During the past 12 mo, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage (PTCD) was carried out in 9 infants (12 procedures) who had undergone hepatic portoenterostomy (8) and hepatic portocholecystostomy (1) for biliary atresia. Bile excretion following surgery was observed in all infants.

Portal hypertension after successful hepatic portoenterostomy in biliary atresia

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1986
From 1953 through 1984, we have operated on 225 cases of biliary atresia, and 95 patients are presently surviving. Portal hypertension with esophageal varices was endoscopically confirmed in 26 of 66 patients (39%) examined, 14 with and 52 without jaundice. All these patients except two had had frequent episodes of postoperative cholangitis.

Fatal Air Embolism Following Endoscopy of a Hepatic Portoenterostomy

Endoscopy, 1990
The case reported is that of a 10-year-old girl born with congenital biliary atresia who had undergone a Kasai procedure in the first year of life. She presented with ascending cholangitis, and investigations revealed a stricture of her portoenterostomy with an intrahepatic stone above the stricture.

Hepatic calcification in an anicteric patient with biliary atresia after hepatic portoenterostomy

Pediatrics International, 1994
AbstractHepatic calcification was found in an anicteric infant with biliary atresia after hepatic portoenterostomy. When she was 2 years of age, ultrasonography detected an echogenic structure with acoustic shadowing. Computerized tomography located it at the proximal portion of Segment 6 in the right lobe.

Hepatic function following portoenterostomy for extrahepatic biliary atresia.

Canadian Medical Association journal, 1978
Liver structure and function in 10 patients with extrahepatic biliary atresia were studied after portoenteric anastomosis (Kasai operation). Bile flow adequate to reduce the serum bilirubin concentration was established in five patients (improved group), three of whom became anicteric. The serum bilirubin concentration did not decrease in the remaining
