ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of a new China-made direct visualization system of peroral cholangiopancreatography in the diagnosis and treatment of biliopancreatic diseases.Methods:Clinical data of 37 patients who underwent endoscopic examination through the direct visualization system of peroral cholangiopancreatography at Digestive Endoscopy Center of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from April 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Technical success rate and complications were analyzed.Results:The examination was completed in 37 patients through the system. The technical success rate was 100.0%. The nature of biliary stricture was confirmed in 24 cases, presenece or absence of bleeding or residual stones in the bile duct was confirmed in 6 cases, neoplasm or residual stones in the pancreatic duct was determined in 2 cases, biliary stricture was passed assisted with visualized guidewire in 2 cases, and lithotripsy was performed assisted with biliary laser in 3 cases. Nine patients were pathologically diagnosed as having malignant biliary stricture, and 8 of them were confirmed malignant by the system. Drainage was performed in 34 cases after the examination. There were 3 cases of cholangitis, 4 cases of bacteremia and 2 cases of postoperative pancreatitis after the operation, which were relieved in a short time after conservative treatment. Bleeding occurred in 1 case which was improved after two times of endoscopic hemostasis.Conclusion:The new direct visualization system of peroral cholangiopancreatography is safe and effective in the diagnosis and treatment of biliopancreatic diseases.
ABSTRACT
Spyglass es un sistema monooperador recientemente desarrollado para realización de colangioscopia permitiendo la evaluación de los ductos biliares. Demostrar la experiencia preliminar en Venezuela en un hospital público con colangioscopia peroral monooperador (Spyglass) en pacientes con patología biliar. Estudio prospectivo (febrero - abril 2012), Hospital Vargas de Caracas. Se incluyeron 9 pacientes (6 hombres, 3 mujeres), edad media 50,44 años (28 - 83 años) con patología bilio-pancreática. Indicaciones: litiasis biliar (3), estenosis (1), colangitis (1), tumores.5 De los 9 pacientes, 5 fueron sometidos a esfinterotomía y 4 estaban previamente instrumentados. En 4 pacientes se realizó dilatación de la esfinterotomía. En 7 pacientes (6 con estenosis y 1 con litiasis biliar gigante) se colocó stent (7 plásticos y 1 metálico autoexpandible) post spyglass. Sedación fue monitoreada por anestesiología y administración antibiótico profiláctico. Spyglass fue realizado en 9 pacientes (1 paciente fue fallida por problemas técnicos del haz de luz). Spyglass pudo ser insertado en el colédoco en 9 pacientes (100%), ductos intrahepáticos 3 (33,3%) y adecuada visualización en 8 pacientes (88,9%). Hallazgos: lesiones exofíticas neovascularizadas 4 (44,4%), litiasis 1 (11,1%), estenosis 2 (22,2%), normal 2 (22,2%). En 2 pacientes (1 con estenosis, otro lesión exofítica) se tomó biopsias (inflamatorio y colangiocarcinoma respectivamente). No hubo complicaciones. Spyglass es un endoscopio miniatura mono operador efectivo en la evaluación y tratamiento de cálculos y lesiones biliares
Spyglass is a mono operated system recently developed for the practice of cholangioscopy that permits the direct evaluation of the biliary ducts. To demonstrate the preliminary experience in Venezuela in a public hospital with mono operated peroral cholangioscopy (Spyglass) in patients with biliary disease. Patients and Methods: Prospective study (february - april 2012), 9 patients (6 men, 3 women) mean age 50,44 years old (28-83) with biliopancreatic disease. Indications: lithiasis (3), stenosis (1), cholangitis (1) and tumors (5). Of the 9 patients, in 5 sphinterotomy was performed and 4 were previously instrumented. In 4 patients dilatation of the sphinterotomy was performed. In 7 patients (6 with stenosis, 1 with a giant biliary stone) a stent was placed (7 plastic and 1 autoexpandible) after Spyglass. Sedation monitored by anesthesiologist and prophylactic antibiotic. Spyglass was performed in 9 patients (1 patient was unsuccessful due to technical problems). Spyglass could be inserted into the common bile duct in 9 patients (100%), intrahepatic ducts 3 (33.3%) and adequate visualization was acquired in 8 patients (88.9%). Findings: exophytic lesions neovascularizadas 4 (44.4%), lithiasis 1 (11.1%), stenosis 2 (22.2%), normal 2 (22.2%). In 2 patients (1 with stenosis, another with exophytic lesion) took biopsies (inflammatory and cholangiocarcinoma, respectively). There were no complications. Spyglass is a miniature endoscope mono operated effective in the evaluation and treatment of lithiasis and biliary lesions. There were no complications

Objective To study the long-term effect of different surgical procedures for juxtapapillary duodenal diverticula accompanying biliopancreatic diseases. Methods The study included 86 cases of juxtapapillary duodenal diverticula accompanying biliopancreatic diseases treated with different operations from April 1982 to October 2001.The 5-year incidence of postoperative cholangitis was retrospectively analyzed using the life table method. Results There were 45 cases of treatment of biliopancreatic diseases without management of the diverticula,9 cases of Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy,11 cases of subtotal gastrectomy with gastrojejunostomy(Billroth Ⅱ),and 13 cases of sphincteroplasty,with their incidences of cholangitis in 5 years being 52.0%,40.0%,75.0%,and 66.7%,respectively. Other procedures were carried out in 8 cases.There was no statistically significant difference in incidences of cholangitis in 5 years among these procedures(?~2=1.49,P=0.8287). Conclusions Management of juxtapapillary duodenal diverticula is not required in patients without the stenosis of the papilla.If postoperative cholangitis cannot be explained with biliary diseases,surgical procedures should be performed depending on the patient's individual condition and the surgeon's experience.The incidences of cholangitis in 5 years among these procedures are not significantly different.
