ABSTRACT
It is a consensus to place stent after cutting bile duct in the hepatobiliary surgery in the past.However,as the development of bile physiological research and surgical technique,especially the raise of medical concepts of rapid recovery,the negative effects which are caused by the placement of stent have been taken seriously gradually.Up to now,whether the stent should be placed after the bile duct is cut has no definite answer yet.
ABSTRACT
Objective To describe the feasibility of biliary reconstruction methods and to explore the preventing and curing methods for biliary complications. Methods A total of 77 cases of living donor liver transplantation were included in our study for retrospective analysis. The operation types included right lobe contain middle hepatic vein (n=29), right lobe without middle hepatic vein (n=45), left lobe (n=1) and left lateral lobe transplantation (n=1). The biliary reconstruction was performed by duct-to-duct and Roux-en-Y epaticojejunostomy. Results Fifty-four grafts had 1 bile duct and 23 had multiple ones. The duct-to-duct biliary reconstruction was performed for 75 adult cases and T-tube drainage was used in 63 patients. Meanwhile, the conventional Roux-en-Y epaticojejunostomy was utilized for 2 pediatric patients. Total biliary complication incidence was 36.4% (28/77) and the complications included bile leakage (10.4%, 8/77) and biliary stricture (26.0%, 20/77).The rate of biliary complication was remarkably different between single hepatic duct group and multiple group (P<0.05). All the 8 patients suffering from bile leakage were cured by percutaneous bile drainage guided by ultrasound. By percutaneous balloon cholangioplasty and placing stent through the T-tube tract or endoscopic retrograde balloon cholangioplasty, the liver function of biliary stricture cases got better and most cases were cured. Conclusion Protecting the blood supply of bile duct at the cutting surface and harvesting one bile duct stump as much as possible can reduce biliary complication effectively. Radiate intervention treatment such as percutaneous balloon cholangioplasty and endoscope treatment etc. are effective for treatment of biliary complications.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the feasibility and morphological characteristics of wide caliber of local biliary tract constructed by increasing pressure of local bile duct in a short period of time.Methods Twelve mongrel dogs were randomized into 2 groups.In group A,only inlaid bile duct dilator(IBDD)was placed for biliary drainage in common bile duct.In group B,IBDD was placed in tommort bile duct for biliary drainage and dilated it through affusing 0.1 ml,0.1 5 ml,0.2 ml and 0.25 ml water on postoperative day 1,8,15 and 22,respectively.The expandable ballbladders were kept on being dilated with increasing pressure for a month.Total bilirubin(TB),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase;aspartate transaminase(AST)of serum,bile duct diameter (BDD),histologic changes of biliary duct wall and hepatic tissue,and postoperative biliary tract contrast were determined before and after operation in both groups.Results There was no significant difference in TB,ALT,AST and histologic changes of hepatic tissue in bilary predilation and postdilation of each group and between group A and group B.There was great difference in BDD in bilary predilation and postdilation of each group and between group A and group B.In group B,the biliary wall was thickened and the lumina of bile duct widened,favorable tenacity of broaden biliary tract was shown.The specific staining of the broadened biliary wall showed that collagen and elastic fibers compacted fine and close and there was no breakage.Conclusion Dilated local bile duct constructed by increasing internal pressure of local bile duct has thick wall,wide caliber and its collagen and elastic fibers compact fine and close.This provides condition to supply early-stage cholangio-jejunostomotic reconstruction of bile duct iniury and create wide stoma for cholangio-jejunostomy in dogs.
