Biliary atresia: Outcome and management 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Davenport M 《Indian journal of pediatrics》2006,73(9):825-828
Untreated, biliary atresia remains a fatal condition of the newborn. Most present within four to six weeks of conjugated jaundice
and acholic stools, and, although still a challenging diagnosis to make, therein lies the opportunity of changing the course
of this otherwise inexorable disease. The aim of surgery is to restore bile flow, alleviate jaundice and abbreviate the cholangiodestructive
process within the liver. The Kasai portoenterostomy, introduced almost 50 years ago in Japan, aims to expose microscopic
biliary ductules within the fibroinflammatory mass at the porta hepatis, and restore bile drainage into a mobilised Roux loop.
About 50% of infants with BA will be able to clear their jaundice following Kasai alone, given appropriately experienced surgeons
and if performed prior to the onset of overt cirrhosis. They have a reasonable expectation of long-term survival to adulthood
with a good quality-of-life. The remainder may be candidates for liver transplantation (where available) although donor organ
shortage and immunosuppresion-related complications remain significant problems. 相似文献

Long-term survival after Kasai's operation for biliary atresia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Barbara A. Stewart Roberta J. Hall Frederick M. Karrer John R. Lilly 《Pediatric surgery international》1990,5(2):87-90
Long-term survival of biliary atresia patients after Kasai hepaticoportoenterostomy is being increasingly reported. Prognostic factors indicative of a favorable long-term outcome consist of: (1) early age at operation; (2) bilirubin excretion of at least 6 mg daily 1 month after operation; (3) favorable hepatic histology at the time of operation; and (4) low incidence of postoperative cholangitis. Jaundice-free long-term survival is now attained in from one-fourth to one-third of patients undergoing Kasai hepaticoportoenterostomy by experienced surgeons in the Western hemisphere. In many long-term survivors there is normalization of liver function, improvement in hepatic histology, and resolution of the complications of portal hypertension. Most patients in this category have made a normal adjustment to their disease and lead active adolescent and adult lives.

Accelerated weight-gain velocity was observed in five infants with extraheptic biliary atresia following closure of the exteriorized conduit. Despite excellent bile drainage (daily volumes 150–900 ml) and refeeding of this fluid to the efferent limb, steatorrhea occurred in three patients and was suspected in the other two. Total bile-acid concentrations in the bile collected prior to refeeding into the jejunum were below the critical micellar concentration in most of the specimens tesred. The nutritional consequences of bile diversion need to be balanced against the beneficial effects in diminishing the incidence of postoperative cholangitis. We postulate that fat malabsorption occured in these children because of inadequate bile-acid concentrations and inefficient fat emulsification. Bile acids were normally conjugated with glycine and taurine.

The outcome of 18 biliary atresia (BA) patients (5 male, 13 female; age range 10.7–22.5 years; mean 15.4±0.7 years) treated
with hepatic portoenterostomy (HPE) and jaundice-free for more than 10 years without liver transplantation (LT) is analyzed
retrospectively. Eight of these patients subsequently required LT (age at LT 12.8±0.5 years, range 10.5–15.2 years); 3 children
(aged 11.6, 13.2 and 14.1 years, respectively) had episodes of gastrointestinal variceal bleeding associated with other signs
of severe disease and are now candidates for LT; and among the 7 asymptomatic patients (age range 11.2–22.5 years; mean 15.9±2.1
years), 5 had sonographic and biochemical signs of moderate portal hypertension (PH). In order to analyze whether the age
at transplantation influences the survival of children transplanted for BA, we also reviewed the outcome of 71 BA patients
transplanted at our hospital between 1986 and 1996. All the children older than 10 years at the time of LT were alive; only
patients younger than 10 years died following LT (n= 15). We conclude that the natural outcome of extrahepatic BA is toward PH, fibrosis, and cirrhosis, even in those cases
successfully treated with HPE. In our experience, the results of sequential treatment with HPE and LT were excellent. 相似文献

A retrospective analysis was performed of the records of 133 patients with extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA) who had undergone a Kasai portoenterostomy. The patients were divided into a non-transplantation group who survived but did not receive liver transplantation after the procedure and a failure group of those who died or received liver transplantation. A score was calculated that assessed nine factors, including laboratory values and complications. The data were assessed at the time complications occurred. The scores were analysed by a trend analysis to see if serial scores predicted the evolution of liver disease. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to assess the optimal cut-point for the scoring system. There were 98 patients in the non-transplantation group and 35 in the failure group. The latter group had significantly higher post-operative bilirubin (9.3±7.2 mg/dl versus 3.5±3.1 mg/dl), ALT (136±89 U/l versus 92±88 U/l), prothrombin time, and incidence of cirrhosis, ascites, oesophageal varices, portal hypertension, cholangitis and sepsis than the non-transplantation group ( P <0.05). A score of 8 had a high sensitivity (96.9%) and specificity (89.5%) for predicting the need for liver transplant. Conclusion:based on easily available clinical information, our scoring system can predict which patients with biliary atresia who have already undergone a Kasai procedure should be considered for liver transplantation.Abbreviations EHBA extrahepatic biliary atresia - ROC receiver operating characteristic 相似文献

Almost a half-century since Kasai described the portoentersotomy for extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA), some questions about the management of this condition have been resolved and many are unanswered. The most useful diagnostic steps to aid in the diagnosis are debated. Sonography can be helpful but its sensitivity and selectivity are arguable with strong advocates for its effectiveness. Likewise, the magnetic resonance imaging has forceful advocates but also has not been universalized. The liver biopsy, done commonly before an operation for cholestasis, is often not discriminating. The radionuclide scan hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid (HIDA) scan after phenobarbital stimulation is helpful if negative, but false positive results are common. It is agreed to proceed expeditiously to the operation in the cholestatic infant after a prompt investigation. The proposal to avoid this step and provide liver transplantation as initial management for EHBA has been suppressed by several clinical findings. The Kasai procedure has not worsened the outcome of eventual liver transplantation. The Kasai, even if it eventually fails, will often buy time and allow the child to grow before transplantation is needed. Multiple reoperations prior to the transplant are discouraged. Revisions to improve bile flow have not gained wide popularity. Use of a stoma to divert the bile has been largely abandoned. The need for frozen section examination of the liver at the site chosen for the portoenterostomy is no longer demanded. The preferred type of intestinal conduit is argued. Unanswered questions about the post-operative management include the role of steroids and of prophylactic antibiotics. The Biliary Atresia Research Consortium, a multi-institutional National Institutes of Health (NIH)-supported project, will address many of the unanswered issues. 相似文献

胆道闭锁(biliary atresia,BA)是肝内外胆管进行性纤维化引起肝内外胆管硬化和闭锁的一种常见疾病,Kasai手术(肝门空肠吻合术)改善了患儿预后.手术时肝脏的病理状态,包括肝脏纤维化程度、胆管板畸形、肝门部纤维斑块、胆道闭锁类型都对Kasai术后的效果有影响.单纯用年龄评价手术预后有欠妥当.建立胆道闭锁治疗中心以提高外科医师实施Kasai手术的经验有助于改善手术预后,而胆道闭锁脾脏畸形综合征、早产儿、CMV感染对预后有不利影响.激素、熊去氧胆酸及抗生素的预防性使用其有效性目前尚有争议. 相似文献

Biliary atresia (BA) is the end-result of a destructive inflammatory process that affects intra- and extrahepatic bile ducts,
leading to fibrosis and obliteration of the biliary tracts with the development of biliary cirrhosis and portal hypertension
(PH). Endothelins (ET) are 21-amino-acid peptides of endothelial origin with potent vasoconstrictor activity that bind to
various cells of the liver. Nothing is presently known about plasma ET levels in BA. The aim of this study was to determine
the clinical significance of plasma ET levels in patients with BA after hepatic portoenterostomy (Kasai's procedure) and to
correlate these with liver function tests (LFT) and PH. We measured plasma concentrations of ET in 19 patients with BA (5
boys and 14 girls; mean age 11.6 ± 5.5 years) after portoenterostomy and 10 age-matched controls. Patients were grouped according
to outcome based on LFT: group A consisted of 9 patients with an ‘‘unfavorable outcome” and Group B 10 patients with a “favorable
outcome”. The plasma ET levels were measured using a highly sensitive and specific enzyme immunometeric assay (EIA). No patient
had ascites or hepatorenal syndrome. Plasma ET levels were significantly higher in patients with BA than in controls (3.42 ± 0.42 vs
1.75 ± 0.39 pg/ml, respectively; P < 0.01) and in patients in group A than in group B. (3.75 ± 0.25 vs 3.06 ± 0.23 pg/ml, respectively; P < 0.01). In group A, plasma ET levels were higher in patients with PH (n = 4) than in those without PH (n = 5) (3.99 ± 0.06 vs 3.64 ± 0.22 pg/ml, respectively; P < 0.05). We conclude that plasma ET levels are high in patients with BA, especially those with severe biliary cirrhosis,
and that ET may partially contribute to development of PH in BA. The results of the present study also suggest that plasma
ET concentrations may be a useful marker in the follow-up of patients with BA.

This paper describes a rare case of biliary atresia (BA) in which massive postoperative bleeding developed due to portal
hypertensive enteropathy. A 15-year-old boy had been doing well after Kasai's operation for BA. At around the age of 6 years
he developed recurrent episodes of esophageal variceal bleeding and underwent esophageal transection, splenectomy, sclerotherapy,
and embolization of the left gastric vein. At the age of 15 years he suddenly developed abdominal pain, hematemesis, and massive
tarry stools. His hemoglobin level was 6.3 g/dl. Endoscopy showed several small, polypoid lesions in the jejunum beyond Treitz'
ligament. The source of the bleeding was one of these lesions located in the proximal jejunojejunostomy of the Roux-en-Y loop.
Because he had repeated episodes of melena, he underwent partial resection of the jejunum under endoscopic guidance. He has
since been free of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. From this experience, we conclude that the polypoid lesions of an enteropathy
may be a cause of massive GI bleeding in the postoperative portal hypertension of BA.

We report on two infants with biliary atresia who underwent a successful Kasai operation at the age of 125 and 109 days, respectively. These cases support the hypothesis that in some cases the biliary tract may be normal or near-normal at birth, but secondary changes may later lead to an abnormality. Under such circumstances the prognosis is influenced by the length of time since the onset of biliary tract obstruction, and not by the absolute age of the patient. This implies that the Kasai operation should still be considered after the age of 100 days of life. 相似文献

Background
It is controversial whether adjuvant steroid treatment should be given to biliary atresia (BA) patients following a Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE). This study aimed to quantitatively and systematically evaluate the effect of adjuvant steroid therapy post-KPE in relation to major clinical outcomes of BA patients.Methods
We systematically reviewed the literature in PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database, Wanfang Database, Scholarly and Academic Information Navigator and manually searched for relevant papers published before August, 2015. We extracted data on the effects of steroid treatment following KPE on clinical outcome, including jaundice free rate and native liver survival rate at 6 months, 1 or 2 years after KPE. The weighted overall relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by using a random-effects model.Results
Eight cohort studies and two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were identified (n=998). Of them, 6 cohort studies and 2 trials investigated the effect of steroid treatment as compared to non-users or placebo (n=566), and 2 cohort studies compared the effects of high-dose to low-dose steroid treatment (n=432). Steroid usage increased the clearance rates of jaundice at 6 months (pooled RR: 1.32; 95% CI: 0.995-1.76; I2=72.6%) and 1 year (pooled RR: 1.35; 95% CI: 1.12-1.61; I2=0.0%), but not 2 years (pooled RR: 0.82; 95% CI: 0.55-1.22; I2=0.0%) after KPE. There was no solid evidence supporting that steroid treatment would improve native liver survival rate at 6 months (pooled RR: 1.02; 95% CI: 0.90-1.15; I2=0.0%), 1 year (pooled RR: 1.10; 95% CI: 0.91-1.34; I2=35.2%) or 2 years (pooled RR: 1.00; 95% CI: 0.73-1.35; I2=57.4%) after KPE.Conclusions
Adjuvant steroid treatment following KPE may improve short-term (≤1 year) clearance rate of jaundice, but no significant effects on long-term (≥2 years) clearance rate of jaundice and native liver survival rate. Studies on doses and duration of steroids, and long-term follow-up studies are warranted.13.

Methods 281 patients diagnosed with biliary atresia(BA) type Ⅲ,admitted from Aug. 1994 to Aug 2008 were retrospectively reviewed and followed up for two years. The patients were divided into two groups. Patients in Group A were controls while patients in Group B were treated with high-dose steroids and antibiotics. We evaluated the relation between early complications and age at operation (days), baseline bilirubin, different treatments and 2 year survival. Results 93 patients had early complications,and cholangitis is the most common, There is no statistics difference of complications in age at operation and baseline bilirubin. The complication rate was 63. 6% in group A, and 25. 7% in group B(P<0. 01). The cholangitis rate was 56. 4% in group A and 23. 9% in group B (P<0. 01). Two groups showed no significant difference in digestive tract bleeding. The visit frequency rate was 92. 5%, while 2 year survival rate was 51. 2%. Patients with early complications or cholangitis have a 34. 4% or 32. 9% 2 year survival rate, while those without have a 59. 6% or 59. 2%(P< 0. 01). Patients with high-dose treatment in group B have a better 2 year survival rate (54. 0% vs 40. 0% ,P<0. 05). Conclusions Early cholangitis was the risk factor of outcome after Kasai operation. These data implied that the use of high-dose steroids and antibiotics can lower the occurrence of cholangitis and elevate 2 year survival rate. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate surgical success, survival rate and relationship of outcome parameters with time at diagnosis and operation of extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA) patients in Izmir, Turkey. METHODS: Clinical and laboratory data were reviewed from case reports of 27 EHBA patients. Twenty-five patients were operated on using Kasai procedure and two cases received liver transplants without portoenterostomy due to decompansated liver cirrhosis on diagnosis. Post operational success was defined as clearance of jaundice (bilirubine level <2 mg/dL). Patients were studied in two groups: I (jaundice free and/or compensated liver disease with liver transplant if needed after 3 years of age) and II (progressive liver disease with death or liver transplant if needed before 3 years of age). Kasai success, age at diagnosis and operation, survival and correlation of outcome with age, preoperative liver functions were evaluated. Eight patients received liver transplants. RESULTS: Median age at diagnosis was 63.5 days (21-212) and portoenterostomy was performed at median age of 67.5 days (25-220). Kasai operation was successful in two cases (8%) and the operation was performed at 35 and 42 days. Age at diagnosis (P = 0.13) and operation (P = 0.2) was not different between the two groups. Group I and II consisted of seven (28%) and 18 (72%) infants. Pre-existing ascites, serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and globulin levels were significantly higher in group II patients (P = 0.008, P = 0.04, P = 0.017, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study indicate that general practitioners should pay close attention to the evaluation of infants with prolonged jaundice in Turkey. Because of frequent late diagnosis presenting with cirrhosis at admission and also because of the low organ donation rates in Turkey, living related liver transplantation is an option and is currently undergoing detailed ethical consideration. 相似文献

Aim: To study the impact of ongoing cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection at presentation of biliary atresia (BA) on the long-term outcome after Kasai procedure.
Methods: Twenty-eight patients with BA born 1988–1997 were included and followed-up until 2007. Eleven patients (group A) had ongoing CMV infection at presentation and were compared to the remaining 17 patients (group B). Median age at Kasai procedure was 75 days in group A and 70 days in group B (p = 0.12).
Results: Including all patients, survival with native liver was 50% and 36% at 4 and 10 years of follow-up respectively. At the end of follow-up, it was 25% and overall survival was 68%. When comparing groups A and B, neither difference in survival with native liver (p = 0.67, log-rank test) nor in survival after liver transplantation was detected.
Conclusion: Survival with native liver after Kasai procedure is comparable to that of other centres. CMV positive patients may present with a later onset, alternatively the detection of CMV infection could delay the referral of BA patients. No significant differences in long-term outcome were detected with regard to early CMV infection. 相似文献

Hepatic portoduodenostomy with interposition of the ileocecoappendix (HPI) can be used for the surgical treatment of biliary
atresia (BA). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcome of patients with HPI. The records of nine patients
who had HPI performed for BA were reviewed. Mean age at portoenterostomy was 68.1 days (range 26–113 days). At the end of
2006, seven of the nine subjects were alive, although two required liver transplantation (LT). The two deaths occurred 94 days
and 2 years after HPI due to varicella infection and variceal bleeding, respectively. Length of follow-up for the seven survivors
ranged from 17 to 19 years (mean 18 years). Three subjects achieved normal liver function after HPI and have remained jaundice-free
to date. Another three who were initially jaundice-free required Roux-en-Y jejunostomy (RYJ) to the ileocecum for severe obstructive
cholestasis 6 months, 3 years, and 19 years after HPI secondary to stones in the cecum. RYJ was successful in these three
cases, and liver function returned to normal within a few months. Two of these three have continued to have almost normal
liver function, but one required LT 5 years after RYJ. The remaining case had LT because of liver dysfunction 14 months after
HPI. There is a high risk for stone formation and obstruction with the HPI procedure because bile can stagnate in the ileocecum. 相似文献

Serum hyaluronan as a marker reflecting the severity of cirrhosis and portal hypertension in postoperative biliary atresia 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The majority of patients with biliary atresia (BA) develop progressive liver disease and serious complications of portal hypertension, including esophageal varices and ascites, despite successful Kasai operation. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether serum hyaluronan (HA) reflects the severity of cirrhosis and its complications in patients with postoperative BA. Fifty-four postoperative BA patients aged 1 to 19 years were recruited into this study. Serum HA was determined by ELISA-based assay, and serum HA levels were compared among groups of patients according to Childs classification as well as the presence of esophageal varices and ascites. Mean serum HA concentration was significantly increased in patients with Child C (534.35±573.02 ng/ml) in comparison to patients with Child B (97.67±104.22 ng/ml, p=0.002) and Child A (36.27±71.41 ng/ml, p<0.001). Mean serum HA concentration was also significantly higher in patients who had ascites or esophageal varices than in those who did not suffer from these complications. Furthermore, patients who had variceal hemorrhage had significantly higher mean serum HA levels than those without bleeding. Thus, serum HA levels may reflect the severity of cirrhosis and its complications, and may be useful in monitoring the clinical outcomes of patients with postoperative BA. 相似文献

Methods The clinical data of thirty-five BA children from pediatric surgery department of Nanjing Childrens Hospital was retrospectively analyzed using binary logistic regression analysis. Results The occurrence of early cholangitis after classical Kasai operation was found to correlate with post-op biliary drainage effect, hormone therapy and the length of Roux-loop in operation. No correlation could be established between early cholangeitis and sex,age, total bilirubin and pre-op liver function, ursodeoxycholic and luminal therapy, the installation of anti-refluxing valve in operation and the dosage of antibiotics. Conclusions Good biliary drainage,hormone therapy and sufficient length of Roux-loop were associated with decreased risk of early cholangitis. 相似文献
