ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the optimal timing of indomethacin administration on prevention of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography ( ERCP ) pancreatitis. Methods The patients were randomly divided into the preoperative group and the postoperative group, and given 100 mg indomethacin in rectum within 30 min before and after ERCP, respectively. The serum levels of amylase and lipase were measured preoperatively and 4 h, 24 h postoperatively. The incidences of postoperative complications such as acute pancreatitis, hyperamylasemia, gastrointestinal bleeding, and perforation were assessed. Results A total of 340 patients were enrolled in this study from June 2014 to June 2017. The preoperative group consisted of 163 patients, including 11 cases ( 6. 75％) with post-ERCP pancreatitis ( PEP ) and 32 cases ( 19. 63％) with hyperamylasemia. Meanwhile, 177 patients constituted the postoperative group, with 25 cases ( 14. 12％) with PEP and 55 cases ( 31. 07％) with hyperamylasemia. The incidences of PEP and hyperamylasemia were significantly lower in the preoperative group than that in the postoperative group ( P = 0. 027 and P = 0. 016, respectively ) . Conclusion Preoperative use of indomethacin can better reduce the incidence of PEP than postoperative administration, without incidence increase of other complications.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of different localizations of juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula of patients with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for pancreaticobiliare disease.Methods We studied patients in whom juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula was detected during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography form January 2010 to April 2016 in Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery,Dongyang People's Hospital of Zhejiang Province.The influence of juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula on the success rate of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and the incidence of associated complications was analyzed.Measurement date were represented as ((x) ± s) comparison between the groups was analyzed by the t test.Count date were evaluated by the frequency and percentage,comparison between the groups was analyzed by the chisquare test or Fisher exact probability method.Results Juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula were present in 67 (14.11％) of the 475 patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for various indictions.Of the 67 patients,38 (56.72％) patients were peridiverticular papilla and 29 (43.28％) patients were intradiverticular papilla.The presence of cannulation success on first attempt was signicantly different between juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula group and non-juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula group(P =0.022),whereas the presence of c annulation success on total attempt was no-different between two groups(P =0.086).The presence of cannulation success on first attempt and total attempt was signicantly different between peridiverticular papilla group and intradiverticular papilla group(P =0.002,P =0.001).The presence of post-ERCP pancreatitis and bleed were more frequently in juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula group (P =O.023,P =0.003),but the different was non-signicantly between peridiverticular papilla group and intradiverticular papilla group (P =1.000,P =1.000).Conclusion Juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula detection rate and different location increase the difficulty of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and maybe increase the presence of complications.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of juxtapaillary duodenal diverticula (JPDD) in patients of acute calculous cholangitis (AC) with different severity grade.Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out for 488 AC cases of different severity from January 2011 to December 2013 who underwent duodenoscopy in Dongyang People's Hospital.Results Of the 488 patients, the JPDD was found in 2.87％, 6.15％ and 4.10％ in patients with mild, moderate and severe AC, respectively.The prevalence of JPDD in severe AC were significantly higher in the moderate and mild AC (x2 =4.486, P =0.034;x2 =14.686, P ＜ 0.001);Procalcitonin (PCT) concentrations in severe AC of JPDD were significantly higher in moderate and mild AC of JPDD (t =10.420 9, P ＜ 0.001;t =4.870 4, P ＜ 0.001).The cannulation failure rate and the amylase were significantly higher in JPDD patients compares to patients without JPDD (x2 =36.95, P ＜ 0.001;t =8.29, P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions JPDD detection rate increases with aging and seems to be associated with acute cholangitis (AC) with different severity grade and PCT concentration.JPDD predicts a higher cannulation failure rate and the amylase level after duodenoscopy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the role of procalcitonin in patients with different severity grades of acute cholangitis (AC).Methods A retrospective study was carried out on 147 patients with different severity grades of AC who were treated from May 2012 to November 2013 at the Dongyang People's Hospital.Results Of 147 patients,the PCT concentrations were (165.63 ± 32.67) pg/ml,(348.97 ± 45.78) pg/ml,(758.91 ± 28.94) pg/ml for patients with mild,moderate and severe AC respectively.The PCT concentrations were significantly higher in patients with severe AC than those with moderate AC (P ＜ 0.05),and also in patients with moderate AC than those with mild AC (P ＜ 0.05).The top three bacteria obtained from blood culture from the different severity grades of AC showed no significant diferences (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Serum PCT concentrations were elevated in patients with AC and it may be used as a parameter to assess the severity of AC.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of one day method in endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in treatment of cholecysto lithiasis and combined.Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out for fivety-seven cases of cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis were peformed EST combined with LC as one day method (Conducted EST firstly and then took LC within 24 hours) from September 2007 to September 2012.Results Fifty-six cases completed LC,the surgical success rate was 98.24％,transit operation rate was 1.76％.Two cases performed abdominal pain and serum amylase rised the other 1 case was transited operation because of the inflammation of triangular parts of the gallbladder and discharged after 9 days.All patients total bilirubin fell to normal level within 72 hours.Conclusion The one day method in EST combined with LC treatment of cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis can effectively reduce patients trauma,achieve good effect with fewer complications and shorter recovery time.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate values of laparoscope,duodenoscope,choledochoscope and seven procedures for extrahepatic biliary calculi.Methods From Junuary 2002 to June 2006,clinical data of 246 cases of extrahepatic biliary calculi treated by three kinds of endoscope and seven procedures were reviewed retrospectively.Laparoscope(Ⅰa) was used in 8 cases,duodenoscope(Ⅰb) in 27 cases,choledochoscope(Ⅰc) in 17 cases,laparoscope combined with choledochoscope(Ⅱa) in 83 cases(including transferred 9 cases),laparoscope combined with duodenoscope(Ⅱb) in 102 cases,choledochoscope combined with duodenoscope(Ⅱc) in 3 cases(all transferred),combined three kinds of endoscope(Ⅲ) in 21 cases(containing transferred 3 cases).Results The success rate of all procedures was 82%-100% without severe complications.Residual stones in biliary tracts were removed once again successfully in 10 cases.The mean of follow-up period was 25.6 months(range,3 months to 4 years).No biliary tract stenosis was observed in 202 cases and stone recurred in 15 cases.Conclusions Three kinds of endoscope and seven procedures supplement minimally invasive treatment.As seven procedures have different indications respectively,the principle "one endoscope preference,main application of two endoscopes,and reasonable application of three endoscopes" should be followed.
