Antegrade papillosphincterotomy in laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Stenotic lesions of the distal part of the common bile duct are often revealed in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. From 1997 intraoperative antegrade papillosphincterotomy (APST) has been introduced in clinical practice of the endoscopic department of the A.V. Vishnevsky Institute of Surgery as the method able both to treat choledocholithiasis and restore adequate bile outflow. Indications to APST were stenosis of Vater's papilla (13 patients), stricture of a terminal part of the common bile duct (6 patients), choledocholithiasis in combination with distal bile duct stenosis (20 patients), isolated choledocholithiasis (4 patients). APST was successful in 36 patients and in 35 ones it was a final procedure for correction of ducts lesions. There were no complications of APST. It is an effective method in the treatment of intraoperatively defected stenotic lesions of the biliary tracts and choledocholithiasis. It makes the base of one-stage surgical policy in line with cholangioscope-assisted lithoextraction, intraoperative retrograde papillosphincterotomy and balloon dilatation of Vater's papilla. Antegrade papilloshincterotomy in patients with cholelithiasis and lesions of the ducts revealed during surgery permits one to reduce number of complications, time of hospital stay and increase comfort of surgical care.     

Choledochoduodenostomy in choledocholithiasis and benign strictures of the common bile duct

The methods of external and of internal drainages of the bile ducts are alternatives in choledocholithiasis and benign strictures of the choledochus. In the Central Research Institute of Gastroenterology, 349 operations were performed on the common bile duct, stones were found in the choledochus in 259 (74.2%) cases and benign strictures of the terminal part of the choledochus and the major duodenal papilla in 103 (29.5%) cases. Ninety-five operations were secondary or reconstructive in character. A precise diagnosis of affection of the biliary tract can be established only during an operation or by retrograde cholangiopancreatography. External drainage of the common bile duct was conducted in 229 (65.6%) cases. Choledochoduodenostomy was undertaken in 105 patients (55 were operated on for the first time and 50 underwent operation on the biliary tract for a second time). Endoscopic papillosphincterotomy was successful in 28 cases with short strictures of the choledochus and choledocholithiasis. The stones were removed from the ducts with instruments or were expelled spontaneously at days 2 to 5.     

Late results of endoscopic papillosphincterotomy treatment in patients with acute cholecystitis

The authors examined 81 patients who were subjected to endoscopic papillosphincterotomy (EPST) in the management of acute cholecystitis attended by total or partial obstruction of the choledochus. Cholestomy was carried out before or after EPST in 68 patients but not in 13 patients. The duration of the follow-up period after treatment ranges from 12 months to 6 years. All patients who were examined felt well and had no complaints caused by cholelithiasis. It was found that destruction of the sphincter apparatus of the major duodenal papilla and terminal choledochus led to the development of reflux from the duodenum into the choledochus in 25% of cases. In 18 patients ultrasonic examination revealed signs of chronic pancreatitis which was not manifested clinically. Among 13 patients with a preserved gallbladder containing concrements only 3 were operated on during the follow-up period. Residual choledocholithiasis was found in 5 patients in whom during good bile drainage after EPST it was not manifested clinically. The authors come to the conclusion that EPST shows a high clinical efficacy in the treatment of acute cholecystitis complicated by obstruction of the terminal choledochus.     

Transduodenal papillosphincterotomy in the treatment of nontumorous lesions of the terminal portion of the common bile duct

For benign stricture, obstruction of the major duodenal papilla (MDP) and terminal common bile duct in 130 patients with acute and chronic cholecystitis and its complications, the papillosphincterotomy was performed. Postoperative lethality was 3.8%. A good long-term result was noted in 84% of the patients, satisfactory--in 12%, bad--in 4%. There were no restenosis of MDP and recurrent choledocholithiasis.     

Duodenoscopic interventions on the terminal part of the choledochus]

The results of various methods of duodenoscopic interventions on the terminal choledochus in 261 patients with papilla stenosis and choledocholithiasis were analysed. Endoscopic papillosphincterotomy by the cannulation method was performed in 107 patients, endoscopic papillosphincterotomy with preincision of the major duodenal papilla in 31, and endoscopic suprapapillary choledochoduodenostomy in 123 patients. The performance of various methods of duodenoscopic interventions according to indications made it possible to increase the possibility of conducting the operation to 98% and its efficacy to 95%. Complications after duodenoscopic interventions occurred in 10% of cases with 1.2% lethality. The late results of duodenoscopic interventions were good in 85.5% of cases irrespective of the mode of the operation.     

Validation of intraoperative diagnostic criteria in the differentiation of benign stenoses of Vater's papilla

The following criteria were recorded from complex intraoperative bile duct diagnosis and were recalculated for validation: residual pressure, flow per minute, choledochal width, and possible probing of the papilla. A comparison was made between 189 cases of papillary stenosis without accompanying choledocholithiasis, on the one hand, and cases with non-contributory choledochus, on the other, for the period from 1970 to 1984. Probabilities by which presence of papillary stenosis could be established were 83 per cent by debitomanometry or 91 per cent by enlargement of choledochus in conjunction with possible probing of the papilla. With all four criteria tested, the probability went up to 99.9 per cent. Diagnosis of papillary stenosis thus proved to be possible with high probability by combination of several examination methods.     

Improvement of endoscopic treatment of the acute cholecystitis

Treatment results of 763 patients with acute cholecystitis were analyzed. Destructive forms of the disease was diagnosed by the ultrasound examination in all cases. Choledocholithiasis was diagnosed in 35 (4.6%), choledocholithiasis with papilla Vatery stricture was in 9 (1.2%) patients and isolated papilla Vatery stricture was registered in 5 (0.7%) patients. All patients were attempted to treat laparoscopically with the use of original "Device for antegrade papillotomy" and "Method of antegrade bipolar papillosphincterotomy". Authors state, that a final decision about the possibility of endoscopic treatment of the acute cholecystitis can be made after detection of anatomical structures of the Calo triangle. By complicated forms of the disease a one-stage laparoscopic treatment should be preferred. Endoscopic papillosphincterotomy should be performed only by the enblocked concrement of the papilla Vatery.

Role of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration in the management of choledocholithiasis

Surgical fraternity has not yet arrived at any consensus for adequate treatment of choledocholithiasis. Sequential treatment in the form of pre-operative endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) is considered as optimal treatment till date. With refinements in technique and expertise in field of minimal access surgery, many centres in the world have started offering one stage management of choledocholithiasis by LC with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration(LCBDE). Various modalities have been tried for entering into concurrent common bile duct(CBD) [transcystic(TC) vs transcholedochal(TD)], for confirming stone clearance(intraoperative cholangiogram vs choledochoscopy), and for closure of choledochotomy(T-tube vs biliary stent vs primary closure) during LCBDE. Both TC and TD approaches are safe and effective. TD stone extraction is involved with an increased risk of bile leaks and requires more expertise in intra-corporeal suturing and choledochoscopy. Choice depends on number of stones, size of stone, diameter of cystic duct and CBD. This review article was undertaken to evaluate the role of LCBDE for the management of choledocholithiasis.     

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy and choledochoscopy for the treatment of cholelithiasis and choledocholithiasis.

A 33-year-old woman with symptomatic cholelithiasis underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Preoperative evaluation did not suggest the presence of choledocholithiasis, but intraoperative cholangiography showed a totally obstructing stone in the distal common bile duct. Laparoscopically directed, transperitoneal choledochoscopy was performed by passing a 9.4 F flexible ureteroscope through the cystic duct into the distal common bile duct. A single calculus was visualized and removed with a basket. The patient was discharged the next day, returned to full activity within 1 week, and has done well in the subsequent postoperative interval. The management of incidentally discovered common bile duct stones during performance of laparoscopic cholecystectomy is discussed.     

Therapeutic tactics in acute obstruction of the terminal part of the common bile duct

The authors had 158 patients with acute block of the terminal part of the choledochus under observation. According to the clinical course, a biliary, pancreatic, and mixed forms were distinguished. The emergency diagnostic program was made up of ultrasonic examination, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, ERCP, and laparoscopy. The cause of the block of the terminal choledochus was choledocholithiasis in 104 patients, papillitis and microcholedocholithiasis in 36, and ++choledocholithiasis and stenosis of the major duodenal papilla in 18 patients. Acute block of the major duodenal papilla was found in 76 and acute block of the intramural part of the choledochus in 76 patients. The mixed form prevailed in the first and the biliary form of hypertension in the second. Operations (cholecystectomy, choledocholithotomy with external or internal drainage of the choledochus) were performed on 42 patients, the postoperative fatality rate was 9.7%. Emergency EPST and extraction of concrements was undertaken in 116 patients. Increase in the clinical picture of acute cholecystitis and destructive pancreatitis after EPST called for operative interventions on 21 patients. The lethality rate after EPST performed for acute block of the terminal choledochus was 6.1%.

Minimally invasive methods for treatment of cholelithiasis, complicated by choledocholithiasis

Disease of the common bile duct (choledochal duct) was revealed in 18 from 531 patients with bile tract lithiasis (3.4%), who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and in 3 of 72 patients (5.4%), who underwent cholecystectomy through minilaparotomy approach. Stenosis of the large duodenal papilla was observed in 14 patients, choledocholithiasis in 9 patients. Endoscopic papillosphincterotomy (EPST) was performed in all cases. There were no complications. In 2 cases moderate amylasemia was detected. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed 5 days after the procedure on the large duodenal papilla (5.1 days mean). Intervention with the use of mini-approach after EPST was carried out in patient with concrement of gall bladder duct stump, which was revealed 3 months after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mini-approach made it possible to perform reconstructive operations on bile ducts in combination with cholecystectomy in 3 patients. At present there are many tools which enable combined treatment of the bile tract lithiasis complicated by bile ducts pathology with low-invasive technique.
