ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To analyze the results obtained in terms of efficacy and safety during the learning curve of a surgical team in the technique of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration with cholecystectomy (LCBDE+LC) using choledochoscopy for the treatment of patients with cholelithiasis and choledocolithiasis or common bile duct stones (CBDS) (CDL). METHODS: Single-center prospective analysis of patients treated with LCBDE+LC during the first 4 years of implementation of the technique. A descriptive and comparative analysis was carried out between groups according to the transcystic (TCi) or transcolecocal (TCo) approach, and also evolutionary by periods. The effectiveness of the technique was evaluated using the variable success rate and safety through the analysis of the overall complication rate and the bile leak rate as the most frequent adverse effect. RESULTS: A total of 78 patients were analyzed. The most frequent approach was TCo (62%). The overall success rate was 92%. The TCi group had a shorter operating time, a lower overall complications rate and a shorter hospital stay. The TCo approach was related to a higher rate of clinically relevant bile leak (8%). Complex cases increased significantly during the learning curve without effect on the overall results. CONCLUSIONS: LCBDE+LC is an effective and safe technique during the learning curve. Its results are comparable to those published by more experienced groups and do not present significant differences related to the evolution during learning period.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La panlitiasis se define como la presencia de múltiples cálculos en el trayecto de la vía biliar. El manejo consiste en realizar una colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica (CPRE), la exploración de la vía biliar o la anastomosis biliodigestiva (ABD), ya sea coledocoduodenoanastomosis o hepaticoyeyunoanastomosis.Objetivo: Describir el caso clínico de un paciente con panlitiasis biliar, abordando la presentación clínica, los métodos diagnósticos, el tratamiento y la evolución, con el propósito de ofrecer un recurso sólido a la comunidad médica.Presentación del caso: Se presenta un paciente de 60 años colecistectomizado hace 13 años portador de anastomosis bilioentérica con panlitiasis recidivante, se realizó un lavado de la vía biliar con salida de cálculos y pus del interior, finalmente se colocó una sonda Kehr junto con tratamiento clínico. Presentó una evolución favorable. Discusión: Este caso reveló una panlitiasis a la exploración de las vías biliares bajo visión endoscópica, a pesar de que no se encontró obstrucción, el paciente tenía antecedente de colecistectomía y contaba con una derivación hepático-yeyunal por lesión iatrogénica. La decisión del tratamiento debe ser multidisciplinaria ya que cada caso es único y dependerá de las características del paciente y las condiciones clínicas individuales.Conclusiones: La panlitiasis coledociana recidivante requirió un control farmacológico estricto para evitar recurrencia y la subsecuente exploración de la vía biliar que incrementa la morbimortalidad del paciente. Es importante el seguimiento médico continuo del paciente y la predisposición con la que cuenta para la formación de litos, pudiendo ser prevenidos, identificados y tratados de manera oportuna


Introduction: Panlithiasis is define as the presence of multiple stones in the biliary tract that is classified as primary, secondary, or mixed according to the origin of the stones. Management consists of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), exploration of the biliary tract, or biliodigestive anastomosis (BDA), either choledochoduodenostomy or hepaticojejunostomy. Objective: Describe the clinical case of a patient with biliary panlithiasis, addressing the cli-nical presentation, diagnostic methods, treatment and evolution, with the purpose of offering a solid resource to the medical community.Case Presentation: We present a 60-year-old male patient who underwent cholecystectomy 13 years ago and has a bilioenteric anastomosis with recurrent panlithiasis. Biliary lavage was performed with the output of stones and pus from the inside. Finally, a Kehr tube was placed along with clinical treatment. The patient showed a favorable outcome.Discussion: This case revealed a panlithiasis upon exploration of the biliary tract under endoscopic vision. Despite finding no obstruction, the patient had a history of cholecystectomy and a hepatic-jejunal diversion due to iatrogenic injury. The treatment decision should be multidisciplinary, as each case is unique and depends on the patient's characteristics and individual clinical conditions.Conclusions: Recurrent choledocholithiasis required strict pharmacological control to prevent recurrence and subsequent exploration of the biliary tract, which increases patient morbidity and mortality. Continuous medical follow-up of the patient and the predisposition with which they have for the formation of stones is important. These can be prevented, identified, and treated in a timely manner.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Objetivo: Determinar la sensibilidad y la especificidad de la endosonografía biliopancreática (ESBP) para diagnóstico en pacientes con riesgo intermedio de coledocolitiasis, derivados a un centro especializado de Gastroenterología quirúrgica de Unión de Cirujano SAS - Oncólogos de Occidente grupo Zentria - Manizales - Colombia entre el 01 de marzo de 2020 al 31 de enero de 2022. Materiales y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo transversal en pacientes con riesgo intermedio para coledocolitiasis. Se calculó el rendimiento diagnóstico de la ESBP y se confirmó con CPRE. Se hizo seguimiento telefónico a los ESBP negativas. Resultados: Se analizaron 752 casos con ESBP de los cuales el 43,2% (n=325) fue positivo y el 56,8% (n=427) fue negativo. Se practicó CPRE en los casos positivos que aceptaron el procedimiento (n=317); el 73,5% (n=233) fueron positivos para coledocolitiasis, el 25,8% (n=82) tumores y el 0,6% (n=2) áscaris biliares. Pacientes con ESBP positiva fueron intervenidos con CPRE. Se obtuvo S= 98,3% (IC 95%: 95,7-99,5); E= 88,1% (IC 95%: 79,2-94,1); VPP = 95,8% (IC 95%: 92,4-98,0); VPN = 94,9% (IC 95%: 87,4-98,7). El AUC de ESBP fue de 0,9319 (IC 95% 0,8961-0,967). Conclusión: En pacientes con riesgo intermedio para coledocolitiasis, la ESBP es una opción diagnostica útil en el estudio de patologías pancreáticas, árbol biliar extrahepático, y la identificación de microlitiasis biliares; por lo que nos permite además poder complementarla con una intervención terapéutica como la CPRE en un solo tiempo.


ABSTRACT Objective: Determine the sensitivity and specificity of the ESBP for diagnosis in patients with intermediate risk of choledocholithiasis, referred to the specialized surgical Gastroenterology center of Unión de Cirujanos SAS - Oncologists of the West Zentria group - Manizales - Colombia between March 01, 2020 to January 31, 2022. Materials and methods: Retrospective cross-sectional study in patients with intermediate risk for choledocholithiasis. The diagnostic performance of ESBP was calculated and confirmed with ERCP. Negative ESBPs were followed up by telephone. Results: 752 cases with ESBP were analyzed, of which 43.2% (n=325) were positive and 56.8% (n=427) were negative. ERCP was performed in positive cases who accepted the procedure (n=317); 73.5% (n:233) were positive for choledocholithiasis, 25.8% (n=82) tumors and 0.6% (n=2) biliary roundworms. Patients with positive ESBP underwent ERCP. S= 98.3% (95% CI: 95.7-99.5) was obtained; E= 88.1% (95% CI: 79.2-94.1); PPV = 95.8% (95% CI: 92.4-98.0); NPV = 94.9% (95% CI: 87.4-98.7). The AUC of ESBP was 0.9319 (95% CI 0.8961-0.967). Conclusion: In patients with intermediate risk for choledocholithiasis, ESBP is a useful diagnostic option in the study of pancreatic pathologies, extrahepatic biliary tree, and the identification of biliary microlithiasis; Therefore, it also allows us to complement it with a therapeutic intervention such as ERCP in a single time.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. La colocación de endoprótesis biliares es cada día más frecuente por ser actualmente una de las mejores opciones para el tratamiento de patologías de la vía biliar. La migración de las endoprótesis es una de las complicaciones que puede ocurrir en hasta un 10,8 % de los pacientes, pero en muy raras ocasiones llegan a causar una perforación intestinal. Caso clínico. Se trata de una paciente de 61 años, a quien cinco años atrás se le realizó una colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica por coledocolitiasis. Consultó por presentar dolor abdominal, y al examen físico se encontraron abdomen agudo y plastrón en fosa ilíaca izquierda a la palpación. La tomografía computarizada informó un cuerpo extraño a nivel del colon descendente, con perforación del mismo. Se realizó laparotomía exploratoria y colostomía por perforación del colon sigmoides secundaria a prótesis biliar migrada. Resultados. La paciente evolucionó favorablemente y a los seis meses se realizó el cierre de la colostomía, sin complicaciones. Conclusión. Los pacientes a quienes se les colocan prótesis biliares requieren un seguimiento adecuado para evitar complicaciones que, aunque raras, pueden ocurrir, como la migración intestinal con perforación. El tratamiento de dichas complicaciones se hace por vía endoscópica, laparoscópica o laparotomía en caso de complicación severa.


Introduction. Endoscopic placement of biliary stents is becoming more common every day, as it is currently one of the best options for the treatment of bile duct pathologies. One of the complications that can occur is the migration of the endoprostheses in up to 10.8% of patients, which in very rare cases can cause intestinal perforation. Clinical case. This is a 61-year-old female patient, who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography five years ago for choledocholithiasis. She consulted due to abdominal pain, with a physical examination that upon palpation documented an acute abdomen and a palpable plastron in the left iliac fossa. The computed tomography revealed a foreign body at the level of the descending colon, with perforation. Exploratory laparotomy and colostomy were performed due to perforation of the sigmoid colon secondary to migrated biliary prosthesis. Results. The patient progressed favorably and six months later the colostomy was closed without complications. Conclusions. Patients who receive biliary stents require adequate follow-up to avoid complications that, although rare, may occur, such as intestinal migration with intestinal perforation. The treatment of these complications can be endoscopic, laparoscopic or laparotomy in case of severe complication.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: The single-operator cholangiopancreatoscopy (SOCP) with the SpyGlass™ system is a endoscopy technique whose use has grown exponentially in recent years. The aims of this study were to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SOCP with SpyGlass™ and determine the factors related to the onset of adverse events (AEs). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Retrospective study at a single tertiary institution with inclusion of all consecutive patients undergoing SOCP with SpyGlass™ from February-2009 to December-2021. No exclusion criteria were considered. A descriptive statistical analysis was performed. The factors associated with the existence of AE were analyzed using Chi-square and Student's t-test. RESULTS: A total of 95 cases were included. The most common indications were biliary strictures (BS) evaluation (66.3%) or treatment of difficult common bile duct stones (27.4%). Technical and clinical success was attained in 98.9%. Single-session stone clearance was obtained in 84%. The AE rate was 7.4%. To detect malignancy in BS, optical diagnosis presents a sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 91.2%, respectively; while histology results were 36.4% and 100% respectively. A previous endoscopic sphincterotomy was associated with a lower rate of AEs (2.4% vs 41.7%; p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: SOCP with SpyGlass™ is a safe and effective technique to diagnose and treat pancreatobiliary pathology. The presence of sphincterotomy performed prior to the procedure could improve the technique's safety.

ABSTRACT

Se presenta el caso de un paciente varón de 77 años con diagnóstico de colecistitis crónica calculosa y coledocolitiasis, con antecedente de situs inversus totalis. Se le realizó una colecistectomía con exploración de vías biliares laparoscópica, utilizando la "técnica francesa en espejo", con extracción de los cálculos. El paciente evolucionó favorablemente. El objetivo del presente trabajo es dar a conocer el caso clínico que es poco frecuente su reporte en la literatura mundial (solo 9 casos). Su importancia radica en que sería el primer reporte de caso clínico publicado de una colecistectomía y exploración de vías biliares laparoscópica con retiro del cálculo en colédoco en un paciente con situs inversus totalis, realizado en el Perú.


We present the case of a 77-year-old male patient with a diagnosis of chronic calculous cholecystitis and choledocholithiasis, with a history of situs inversus totalis. Therefore, a laparoscopic cholecystectomy with common bile duct exploration were performed, using the "french mirror technique", with stone extraction. Patient evolved favorably. The aim of this study is to present this clinical case that is rarely reported in the world literature (only 9 cases). Its importance lies in the fact that it would be the first published clinical case report of a laparoscopic cholecystectomy and bile duct exploration with removal of the common bile duct stones in a patient with situs inversus totalis, performed in Peru.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. Los pacientes con antecedente de baipás gástrico que presentan coledocolitiasis no pueden ser tratados con la técnica convencional de colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica. En estos casos, la vía transgástrica abierta o asistida por laparoscopia, se convierte en una excelente alternativa a la exploración abierta de la vía biliar. Métodos. Estudio retrospectivo que incluyó pacientes adultos con coledocolitiasis y antecedente de gastrectomía subtotal o baipás gástrico con Y de Roux, llevados a colangiopancreatografía endoscópica transgástrica laparo-asistida, entre enero de 2019 y diciembre de 2021, en la Clínica CES de Medellín, Colombia. Resultados. Se encontraron siete pacientes, todos con antecedente de baipás gástrico para el manejo de la obesidad. La tasa de identificación y canulación de la vía biliar y extracción de cálculos fue del 100 % mediante el abordaje transgástrico laparo-asistido. Conclusión. De acuerdo con varias revisiones sistemáticas, esta técnica es relativamente fácil de implementar y segura, presentando una tasa de complicaciones inferior a 5 %. Se propone una variante de esta técnica


Introduction. Patients with a history of gastric bypass who present with choledocholithiasis cannot be treated with the conventional technique of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. In these cases, the open or laparoscopic-assisted transgastric approach becomes an excellent alternative to open bile duct gastric exploration. Methods. A retrospective review of patients with choledocholithiasis and a history of subtotal gastrectomy or gastric bypass with Roux-en-Y, who underwent laparo-assisted transgastric endoscopic cholangiopancreatography, was conducted between January 2019 and December 2021 at Clínica CES de Medellín, Colombia. Results. Seven patients were found, all with a history of gastric bypass secondary to obesity. The rate of bile duct identification and cannulation, and stone removal was 100% using the laparo-assisted transgastric approach. Conclusion. According to several systematic reviews, this technique is relatively easy to implement and safe, presenting a rate of complications less than 5%. A variant to this technique is proposed

ABSTRACT

The local experience and the success rate of different available treatments for dificult biliary stones in Colombia are poorly described. We made an observational study reporting patients treated for dificult biliary stones, at Hospital Universitario San Ignacio in Bogotá, Colombia between January 2015, and November 2021. Clinical characteristics, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) findings, and outcomes are presented. Additionally, the success rates of Endoscopic Sphincterotomy Plus Large Balloon Dilation (ESLBD), Mechanical Lithotripsy (ML), temporary stenting (TS), cholangioscopy-guided laser lithotripsy (CGLL), and surgery are described. A total of 146 patients were included (median age 69 years, IQR 58.5-78.5, 33.8% men). The median stone diameter was 15 mm (IQR 10 - 18 mm). One stone was presented in 39.9%, two stones in 18.2%, and ≥3 stones in the remaining stone. A 67.6% disproportion rate was observed between the stone and distal common bile duct. Successful stone extraction was achieved in 56.2% in the first procedure, 22.6% in the second, 17.1% in the third, 3.4% in the fourth, and 0.7% in the fifth procedures. The successful extraction rates were 56.8% for ESLBD, 75% for ML, 23.4% for TS, 57.7% for CGLL, and 100% for surgery. Endoscopic management of dificult stones is usually successful, although it usually requires 2 or more ERCPs procedures. The surgical requirements were low. ESLBD is an effective technique unlike TS. Few patients required advanced techniques such as ML or CGLL. Endoscopic procedures are associated with a low rate of complications.


La tasa de éxito de diferentes tratamientos de Cálculo Biliar Difícil (CBD) en Colombia no está descrita. Hemos realizado un estudio descriptivo observacional sobre el tratamiento de CBD en el Hospital Universitario San Ignacio en Bogotá, Colombia entre enero 2015 y noviembre 2021. Se presentan las características clínicas, hallazgos en la Colangiopancreatografía Retrógrada Endoscópica (CPRE) y desenlaces asociados. Adicionalmente, se describe la tasa de éxito de los pacientes tratados mediante esfinterotomía asociada a dilatación endoscópica con balón grande (EDEBG), litotripsia mecánica (LM), stent temporal (ST), litotripsia con láser guiada por colangioscopia (LLGC) y cirugía. 146 pacientes fueron incluidos (Mediana de edad 69 años, RIC 58,6-78,5). 33,8% eran hombres. La mediana del tamaño del CBD fue de 15 mm (RIC 10-18 mm). 39,9% tenían un solo cálculo, 18,2% tenían 2 y el resto ≥3 cálculos. 67,6% tenían desproporción entre el cálculo y el colédoco distal. La extracción exitosa se logró en 56,2% en el primer procedimiento, 22,6% en el segundo, 17,1% en el tercero, 3,4% en el cuarto y 0,7% en el quinto procedimiento. La tasa de extracción exitosa fue de 56,8% con EDEBG, 75% con LM, 23,4% con ST, 57,7% con LLGC y 100% con cirugía. El manejo endoscópico del CBD es usualmente exitoso. Sin embargo, requiere usualmente ≥2 CPRE. El tratamiento quirúrgico no es común. EDEBG es una técnica efectiva a diferencia del ST. Pocos pacientes requirieron técnicas avanzadas como LM o LLGC. Los métodos endoscópicos presentan una baja tasa de complicaciones.

ABSTRACT

Background: Choledocholithiasis causing acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP) may migrate to the duodenum or persist in the common bile duct (CBD). We developed a model for predicting persistent choledocholithiasis (PC) in patients with ABP. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 204 patients, age ≥18 years (mean age: 73 years, 65.7% women), admitted for ABP in 2013–2018, with at least a magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), and/or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Epidemiological, analytical, imaging, and endoscopic variables were compared between patients with and without PC. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to develop a predictive model of PC. Results: Patients underwent MRCP (n=145, 71.1), MRCP and ERCP (n=44, 21.56%), EUS and ERCP (n=1, 0.49%), or ERCP (n=14, 6.86%). PC was detected in 49 patients (24%). PC was strongly associated with CBD dilation, detected in the emergency ultrasound (p<0.001; OR=27; 95% CI: 5.8–185.5), increased blood levels of gamma glutamyl transpeptidase, detected at 72h (p=0.008; OR=3.4; 95% CI: 1.5–8.9); and biliary sludge in the gallbladder (p=0.008; OR=0.03; 95% CI: 0.001–0.3). Conclusions: The predictive model showed a validated area under the curve (AUC) of 0.858 for detecting PC in patients with ABP. A nomogram was developed based on model results. Conclusions: The predictive model was highly effective in detecting PC in patients with ABP. Therefore, this model could be useful in clinical practice.(AU)


Antecedentes: La coledocolitiasis que provoca una pancreatitis aguda biliar (PAB) puede migrar al duodeno o persistir en el conducto biliar común (CBC). Desarrollamos un modelo para predecir la coledocolitiasis persistente (CP) en pacientes con PAB. Métodos: Este estudio de cohortes retrospectivo incluyó a 204 pacientes, edad ≥ 18 años (edad media: 73 años, 65,7% mujeres), ingresados por PAB entre los años 2013 y 2018, a los que se les realizó al menos una colangiopancreatografía por resonancia magnética (CPRM), una ultrasonografía endoscópica (USE) o una colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica (CPRE). Se compararon variables epidemiológicas, analíticas, de imagen y endoscópicas entre pacientes con y sin CP. Se realizaron análisis de regresión logística multivariante para desarrollar un modelo predictivo de CP. Resultados: Los pacientes se sometieron a CPRM (n=145, 71,1%), CPRM y CPRE (n=44, 21,56%), USE y CPRE (n=1, 0,49%) o CPRE (n=14, 6,86%). Se detectó CP en 49 pacientes (24%). La CP se asoció fuertemente con la dilatación del colédoco, detectada en la ecografía de urgencias (p <0,001; OR=27; IC del 95%: 5,8-185,5), aumento de los niveles sanguíneos de gamma glutamil transpeptidasa, detectados a las 72h (p=0,008; OR=3,4, IC del 95%: 1,5-8,9), y barro biliar en la vesícula (p=0,008; OR=0,03; IC del 95%: 0,001-0,3). El modelo predictivo alcanzó un área bajo la curva validada de 0,858 para la detección de CP en pacientes con PAB. Se desarrolló un nomograma basado en los resultados del modelo. Conclusiones: El modelo predictivo fue altamente efectivo en la detección de CP en pacientes con PAB. Por lo tanto, este modelo podría ser útil en la práctica clínica.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La coledocolitiasis se ha convertido en un problema de salud para el cual existen disímiles opciones de tratamiento. Objetivo: Exponer los resultados obtenidos con la colangiografía videolaparoscópica intraoperatoria y la colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica en pacientes con sospecha de coledocolitiasis. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo retrospectivo en pacientes con sospecha de coledocolitiasis sometidos a colangiografía videolaparoscópica y la colangiopancreatografía endoscópica en el Hospital Militar Clínico Quirúrgico Docente de Camagüey Dr. Octavio de la Concepción y de la Pedraja durante el período de enero de 2015 a diciembre de 2019. El universo lo conformaron los 117 pacientes sometidos a ambos procederes. Se controlaron las variables de sospecha de coledocolitiasis, grupos de edades, sexo, hallazgos imagenológicos, complicaciones e índice de sospecha de coledocolitiasis. Resultados: En la colangiografía videolaparoscópica intraoperatoria fue mayor la posibilidad diagnóstica y menor las complicaciones. El diagnóstico de coledocolitiasis fue mayor en los pacientes sometidos a colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica, aunque esta no permitió evaluar a pacientes con bajo riesgo. Los pacientes del sexo femenino fueron más frecuentes en ambos grupos y la sospecha de coledocolitiasis se observó en grupo de edades entre 31 y 45 años. Sin embargo, fue normal el hallazgo de las vías biliares en ambos procederes. Conclusiones: Ambos métodos son seguros y útiles en el estudio en pacientes con sospecha de coledocolitiasis, con mayor eficacia diagnóstica para la técnica videolaparoscópica y menos complicaciones. El hallazgo normal de la vía biliar fue el resultado que prevaleció en ambos procederes(AU)


Introduction: Choledocholithiasis has become a health problem for which there are dissimilar treatment options. Objective: To present the results obtained with intraoperative videolaparoscopic cholangiography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with suspected choledocholithiasis. Methods: A retrospective and descriptive study was conducted in patients with suspected choledocholithiasis and submitted to videolaparoscopic cholangiography and endoscopic cholangiopancreatography at Hospital Militar Clínico Quirúrgico Docente Dr. Octavio de la Concepción y de la Pedraja, of Camagüey, during the period from January 2015 to December 2019. The study universe consisted of 117 patients submitted to both procedures. The variables of suspected choledocholithiasis, age groups, sex, imaging findings, complications and index of suspected choledocholithiasis were controlled. Results: Intraoperative videolaparoscopic cholangiography had a higher diagnostic possibility and lower complications. The diagnosis of choledocholithiasis was higher in patients submitted to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, although this did not allow the assessment of low-risk patients. Female patients were more frequent in both groups, while suspected choledocholithiasis was observed in patients between 31 and 45 years of age. However, the finding of a normal biliary tract was common to both procedures. Conclusions: Both methods are safe and useful in the study in patients with suspected choledocholithiasis, with greater diagnostic efficacy, as well as fewer complications, for the videolaparoscopic technique. The finding of a normal biliary tract was the prevailing result in both procedures(AU)

ABSTRACT

La litiasis biliar en Pediatría es una patología de baja incidencia. El diagnóstico se suele producir de forma casual debido a que cursa en la mayor parte de los casos de forma asintomática. En ocasiones, el síntoma de debut es en forma de dolor torácico, si bien esta circunstancia es poco frecuente. El método diagnóstico más utilizado es la ecografía abdominal debido a su alta especificidad y sensibilidad. El tratamiento depende de las características del paciente, pudiendo plantear opciones tanto médicas como quirúrgicas (AU)


Cholelithiasis in paediatrics is a pathology that has a low incidence. Diagnosis is usually made by chance as it is mostly asymptomatic. Chest pain as presenting symptom is rare. The most commonly used diagnostic method is abdominal ultrasound due to its high specificity and sensitivity. Treatment depends on the characteristics of the patient, and both medical and surgical options may be considered. (AU)

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Choledocholithiasis causing acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP) may migrate to the duodenum or persist in the common bile duct (CBD). We developed a model for predicting persistent choledocholithiasis (PC) in patients with ABP. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 204 patients, age ≥18 years (mean age: 73 years, 65.7% women), admitted for ABP in 2013-2018, with at least a magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), and/or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Epidemiological, analytical, imaging, and endoscopic variables were compared between patients with and without PC. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to develop a predictive model of PC. RESULTS: Patients underwent MRCP (n=145, 71.1), MRCP and ERCP (n=44, 21.56%), EUS and ERCP (n=1, 0.49%), or ERCP (n=14, 6.86%). PC was detected in 49 patients (24%). PC was strongly associated with CBD dilation, detected in the emergency ultrasound (p<0.001; OR=27; 95% CI: 5.8-185.5), increased blood levels of gamma glutamyl transpeptidase, detected at 72h (p=0.008; OR=3.4; 95% CI: 1.5-8.9); and biliary sludge in the gallbladder (p=0.008; OR=0.03; 95% CI: 0.001-0.3). CONCLUSIONS: The predictive model showed a validated area under the curve (AUC) of 0.858 for detecting PC in patients with ABP. A nomogram was developed based on model results. CONCLUSIONS: The predictive model was highly effective in detecting PC in patients with ABP. Therefore, this model could be useful in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: la presencia de un conducto colédoco doble es una variante anatómica infrecuente con menos de 200 casos publicados en la literatura hasta la fecha, siendo fundamental los estudios preoperatorios que se le deben realizar a los pacientes, a fin de tener la sospecha o el diagnóstico confirmado, no sólo de la variante anatómica, sino de la patología asociada, siendo estas la coledocolitiasis y las patologías malignas del árbol biliar las más frecuentes, aunque gran parte de los casos son hallazgos incidentales e intraoperatorios.Caso clínico : se presenta el caso de masculino de 81 años de edad, con antecedente de colecistectomía 20 años previos, con diagnóstico de síndrome ictérico obstructivo, y estudios de colangiorresonancia y CPRE que reportan coledocolitiasis. Se decide llevar a acto quirúrgico y se diagnóstica la presencia de conducto colédoco doble como hallazgo. Se realiza derivación biliodigestiva de tipo hepaticoyeyunoanastomosis más ligadura de conducto colédoco accesorio con evolución satisfactoria, con alta médica a los 5 días posteriores, y resultado de biopsia negativo para malignidad.Conclusión : el doble colédoco debe ser adecuadamente diagnosticado y estudiado, así no se confirme el diagnóstico preoperatorio los pacientes deben acudir con estos estudios realizados al acto quirúrgico, ya que, dicho tratamiento dependerá fundamentalmente de la patología asociada(AU)


Introduction: the presence of a double common bile duct is an infrequent anatomical variant with less than 200 cases published in the literature to the date, and preoperative studies that must be performed on patients are essential in order to have the suspicion or diagnosis confirmed, not only of the anatomical variant, but also of the associated pathology, these being choledocholithiasis and malignant pathologies of the biliary tract the most frequent, although most of the cases are incidental and intraoperative findings.Clinical case : the case of an 81-year-old male is presented, with a history of cholecystectomy 20 years prior, with a diagnosis of obstructive icteric syndrome, and magnetic resonance cholangiography and ERCP studies that reported choledocholithiasis. It was decided to carry out surgery and the presence of double common bile duct was diagnosed as a finding. Biliodigestive derivation hepaticojejunoanastomosis type and accessory common bile duct ligation was performed with satisfactory evolution, with medical discharge 5 days later, and biopsy result negative for malignancy.Conclusion : the double common bile duct should be properly diagnosed and studied, even if the preoperative diagnosis is not confirmed, patients should attend the surgical procedure with these studies, since said treatment will depend fundamentally on the associated pathology(AU)

ABSTRACT

Los abscesos hepáticos son colecciones supurativas encapsuladas dentro del parénquima hepático, las cuales generalmente se encuentran infectadas por bacterias. Se forman por diferentes mecanismos, una de ellas es la secundaria a la infección de las vías biliares, colangitis aguda, la misma que en su evolución natural puede progresar a una infección severa e incluso a sepsis o choque séptico y es por ello que requiere un diagnóstico y tratamiento adecuados. La litiasis biliar puede complicarse con colangitis aguda tras la obstrucción al flujo de salida de la bilis con posterior infección, generalmente bacteriana, no solo del árbol biliar sino también del parénquima hepático. Se presenta el caso clínico de una paciente mujer joven que cursó con microabscesos hepáticos colangiolares tras un evento de coledocolitiasis no tratado oportunamente.


Hepatic abscesses are suppurative collections encapsulated within the liver parenchyma, which are generally infected by bacteria. They are formed by different mechanisms, one of them is secondary to bile duct infection, acute cholangitis, which in its natural history can progress to severe infection and even sepsis or septic shock and that is why it requires a proper diagnosis and treatment. Gallstones can be complicated by acute cholangitis after bile outflow obstruction with subsequent infection, usually bacterial, not only of the biliary tree but also of the liver parenchyma. We present the clinical case of a young female patient who presented with cholangiolar hepatic microabscesses after an event of choledocholithiasis not treated in a timely manner.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Common bile duct pressure (CBDP) after surgical exploration has not been fully detailed. The objective was to describe the changes of CBDP after open surgical exploration in patients with choledocholithiasis, considering clinical scenarios in remote locations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A before-after study was designed. Patients with choledocholithiasis who required an open cholecystectomy with exploration of bile ducts were included in the study. Open cholecystectomy was performed and perioperative T-tube CBDP was registered immediately after the procedure and weekly thereafter, with a 6 week follow-up. Control T-tube cholangiogram was performed at week 6 to exclude residual stones. Data were analyzed with T test for paired samples. RESULTS: Thirteen patients were included (age range, 17-69 years; 38.69 ± 17.97). Mean CBDP (cm H2O) registered were as follows: Initial = 19.5, week 1 = 16.2, week 2 = 14.3, week 3 = 13.0, week 4 = 12.1, week 5 = 11.1, and week 6 = 9.7. There were significant differences shown when comparing week 2 (p = 0.05), week 3 (p = 0.036), week 4 (p = 0.023), week 5 (p = 0.010), and week 6 (p = 0.004) with the initial value. CONCLUSIONS: CBDP decreases between 2nd and 3rd post-operative weeks. The use of choledochomanometry is useful in clinical scenarios with no access to imaging or interventionism facilities as in remote populations or rural locations.


ANTECEDENTES: La presión del conducto biliar común (PCBC) después de exploración quirúrgica no ha sido totalmente detallada. El objetivo fue describir los cambios de la PCBC tras exploración por coledocolitiasis. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio de antes y después, en pacientes con coledocolitiasis, que requirieron colecistectomía con exploración de vías biliares, registrando la PCBC por 6 semanas. Con colangiografía por sonda en T en la semana seis. Análisis con T de Student para muestras pareadas. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 13 pacientes (rango 17-69 años; 38,69 ± 17,97). Las presiones medias del CBC fueron: Inicial = 19.5, semana 1 = 16.2, semana 2 = 14.3, semana 3 = 13.0, semana 4 = 12.1, semana 5 = 11.1 y semana 6 = 9.7. Se mostraron diferencias significativas al comparar la semana 2 (p = 0.05), la semana 3 (p = 0.036), la semana 4 (p = 0.023), la semana 5 (p = 0.010) y la semana 6 (p = 0.004) contra el valor inicial. DISCUSIÓN: La PCBC disminuye entre la segunda y la tercera semana posoperatoria. La coledocomanometría muestra ser útil en escenarios clínicos sin acceso a intervencionismo como en poblaciones remotas o localidades rurales.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Introducción: con la actualización de las guías de la American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) 2019, los criterios para los pacientes con sospecha de coledocolitiasis se volvieron más estrictos a la hora de elegir quienes deben ser llevados directamente a colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica (CPRE). El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar a los pacientes llevados directamente a CPRE según las guías ASGE de 2010 frente a la guía de 2019. Métodos: estudio retrospectivo de las CPRE realizadas entre enero de 2016 y diciembre de 2018 que evaluó el rendimiento diagnóstico de las variables paraclínicas y ecográficas de forma individual y en conjunto para comparar su sensibilidad, especificidad, valores predictivos y precisión de la probabilidad alta según guías de 2019 y de 2010 respecto a la presencia de cálculos en las CPRE. Resultados: 386 pacientes se llevaron a CPRE por sospecha de coledocolitiasis, 84,5% fueron procedimientos terapéuticos. El grupo de probabilidad alta presentó mayor tasa de CPRE terapéutico: 89,3% según las guías de 2019 frente a las de 2010 con 86,3% (p < 0,001). La sensibilidad y especificidad de la probabilidad alta según las guías de 2010 fueron del 86,8% y 25,0%, respectivamente, con un valor predictivo positivo (VPP) del 86,3% y una precisión del 77,2%. La probabilidad alta según las guías de 2019 mostró una menor sensibilidad (74%), pero mayor especificidad (51,7%), un VPP del 89,3% y una precisión del 70,7%. Conclusiones: la implementación de las guías ASGE 2019 sobre las indicaciones para la realización de la CPRE debe considerarse teniendo en cuenta los recursos de los centros hospitalarios, sobre todo en países de bajos y medianos ingresos. Las guías ASGE 2010 presentan una buena sensibilidad y precisión para orientar la realización de la CPRE.


Abstract Introduction: With the update of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) 2019 guidelines, the criteria for patients with suspected choledocholithiasis became stricter when choosing who should be taken directly to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). This study aimed to compare patients taken directly to ERCP according to the 2010 vs. 2019 ASGE guidelines versus the 2019 guide. Materials and methods: A retrospective study of ERCPs performed between January 2016 and December 2018 evaluated the diagnostic performance of paraclinical and ultrasound variables individually and collectively to compare their sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and high probability precision according to 2019 and 2010 guidelines regarding the presence of stones in ERCPs. Results: 386 patients underwent ERCP due to suspicion of choledocholithiasis; 84.5% were therapeutic procedures. The high probability group had a higher rate of therapeutic ERCP: 89.3% according to the 2019 guidelines compared to those of 2010 with 86.3% (p < 0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of high probability according to the 2010 guidelines were 86.8% and 25.0%, respectively, with a positive predictive value (PPV) of 86.3% and an accuracy of 77.2%. According to the 2019 guidelines, high probability showed lower sensitivity (74%) but higher specificity (51.7%), a PPV of 89.3%, and an accuracy of 70.7%. Conclusions: The implementation of the ASGE 2019 guidelines on the indications for ERCP should consider the resources of hospitals, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The ASGE 2010 guidelines show good sensitivity and precision to guide the performance of ERCP.

ABSTRACT

El Síndrome de Mirizzi es una afección derivada del impacto de un lito en el conducto cístico o infundíbulo de la vesícula biliar. La enfermedad litiásica, crónica y complicada de la vesícula biliar es un factor determinante. Se presenta el caso de un paciente con historia de íctero obstructivo, al cual se le diagnosticó inicialmente tumor periampular. Fue reevaluado y se le realizaron varias pruebas diagnósticas, hasta llegar al diagnóstico de Síndrome de Mirizzi, corroborado en el acto quirúrgico. El SM es una enfermedad rara de la vía biliar cuyo tratamiento es quirúrgico. La vía laparoscópica para la realización de la colecistectomía es la de elección para casos grado I y en casos seleccionados grado II. La colecistectomía y derivación bilioentérica (hepaticoyeyunostomía) conforman el tratamiento para el resto de los casos.


Mirizzi Syndrome is a condition derived from the impact of a stone in the cystic duct or infundibulum of the gallbladder. Chronic and complicated stone disease of the gallbladder is a determining factor. A patient with a history of obstructive jaundice, who was initially diagnosed with a periampullary tumor is presented. He was reassessed and several diagnostic tests were performed, until reaching the diagnosis of Mirizzi Syndrome, corroborated in the surgical act. MS is a rare disease of the bile duct whose treatment is surgical. The laparoscopic approach to perform cholecystectomy is the one of choice for grade I cases and in selected cases grade II. Cholecystectomy and bilioenteric bypass (hepaticojejunostomy) are the treatment for the rest of the cases.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN La litiasis vesicular asociada a coledocolitiasis puede tener distintos tratamientos, endoscópicos o quirúrgicos, dependiendo del paciente, el entrenamiento del personal médico y de la disponibilidad de instrumental. Ninguno ha demostrado estar exento de complicaciones. Presentamos dos técnicas tendientes a mejorar los resultados del tratamiento quirúrgico de la coledocolitiasis. Una es la extracción transcística de coledocolitiasis y stent, en pacientes que fueron tratados endoscópicamente por colangitis, tendiente a resolver el problema (la litiasis vesicular, la coledocolitiasis y el stent) en un solo tiempo por cirugía laparoscópica. La segunda es una nueva indicación de una técnica ya descripta, la dilatación papilar anterógrada con balón, utilizada en este caso para disminuir las fugas biliares tras un cierre primario de colédoco.


ABSTRACT Cholelithiasis associated with choledocholithiasis may have different treatments, either by endoscopy or surgery, depending on the patient, level of training of the medical staff and availability of instruments. None of them is free of complications. We report two non-conventional techniques aimed at improving the results of the management of choledocholithiasis. Transcystic removal of common bile duct stones and stent in patients who underwent endoscopic treatment for cholangitis is one of these new techniques to manage cholelithiasis, choledocholithiasis and stent removal in a single procedure through laparoscopy. The second technique is a new indication of a previously described procedure, antegrade balloon papillary dilation to reduce biliary leaks after primary closure of the common bile duct.
