INTRODUCTION: Gallstone with acute cholecystitis is one of the most common diseases in the clinic. If the disease is serious, gallbladder gangrene, perforation, and sepsis may be caused. Gallbladder diseases rarely cause thoracic-related complications, especially pleural fistula, which is very rare in clinical practice. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 52-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency department for 1 month with recurrent right middle and upper abdominal pain. DIAGNOSIS: Computed tomography diagnosis: cholecystitis and peri-inflammation, small abscess around the base of the gallbladder, local peritonitis, and bilateral pleural effusion. INTERVENTIONS: After admission, conservative treatment was given. On the 4th day of admission, the symptoms worsened, and an emergency catheter drainage was performed on the right thoracic cavity to extract 900 mL of dark yellow effusion. After the operation, a large amount of bili-like fluid was continuously drained from the thoracic drainage tube. After the iatrogenic biliary fistula caused by thoracic puncture was excluded, cholecystopleural fistula was considered to be cholecystopleural fistula. On the 6th day of admission, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)â +â cholecystographyâ +â Oddi sphincterotomyâ +â laminating biliary stent was performed in the emergency department, and cholecystopleural fistula was confirmed during the operation. OUTCOMES: The patient recovered well after surgery, computed tomography examination on the 20th day after surgery indicated that pleural effusion was significantly reduced, and the patient was cured and discharged. The patient returned to the hospital 8 months after the ERCP operation to pull out the bile duct-covered stent. The patient did not complain of any discomfort after the postoperative follow-up for 3 years, and no recurrence of stones, empyema, and other conditions was found. CONCLUSION: Cholecystopleural fistula is one of the serious complications of acute cholecystitis, which is easy to misdiagnose clinically. If the gallbladder inflammation is severe, accompanied by pleural effusion, the pleural effusion is bili-like liquid, or the content of bilirubin is abnormally elevated, the existence of the disease should be considered. Once the diagnosis is clear, active surgical intervention is needed to reduce the occurrence of complications. Endoscopic therapy (ERCP) can be used as both a diagnostic method and an important minimally invasive treatment.

INTRODUCTION: Bronchobiliary fistulas are rare and difficult to treat. Peacock first reported this entity in 1850 while treating a patient with hepatic encopresis. CASE PRESENTATION: A 67-year-old Chinese male patient presented to the outpatient clinic with a complaint of coughing up phlegm with chest tightness for 4 days with symptoms of intermittent bilirubin sputum with a sputum volume of about 500 ml per day but no symptoms of abdominal pain or jaundice and no yellow urine or steatorrhea. The examination revealed cyanosis of the lips and mouth, barrel chest, low breath sounds on the right side, and a large number of wet rales heard in both lungs. The imaging investigations were suggestive of bronchobiliary fistula. Therefore, the patient was operated on and discharged with no perioperative complications. CONCLUSION: Bronchobiliary fistula should be considered diagnostically in patients with known liver disease who also experience trauma or medical treatment and cough up bile-colored sputum, regardless of the presence of concurrent infections, and in conjunction with radiological expertise to identify it. Here, we report a case of bronchobiliary fistula and a brief review of the literature on it.

Cystic echinococcosis is a zoonotic parasitic disease that affects the liver in more than 70% of cases, and there is still an underestimated incidence in endemic areas. With a peculiar clinical presentation that ranges from paucisymptomatic illness to severe and possibly fatal complications, quality imaging and serological studies are required for diagnosis. The mainstay of treatment to date is surgery combined with antiparasitic agents. The surgical armamentarium consists of open and laparoscopic procedures for selected cases with growing confidence in parenchyma-sparing interventions. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is extremely useful for the diagnosis and treatment of biliary fistulas. Recent relevant studies in the literature are reviewed, and two complex cases are presented. The first patient underwent open surgery to treat 11 liver cysts, and during the follow-up, a right pulmonary cyst was diagnosed that was treated by minimally invasive surgery. The second case is represented by the peritoneal rupture of a giant liver cyst in a young woman who underwent laparoscopic surgery. Both patients developed biliary fistulas that were managed by ERCP. Both patients exhibited a non-specific clinical presentation and underwent several surgical procedures combined with antiparasitic agents, highlighting the necessity of customized treatment in order to decrease complications and successfully cure the disease.

Bronchobiliary fistulas are defined as an abnormal communication between the biliary system and the bronchial tree. They are extremely rare complications of radiofrequency or microwave ablation. A 39-year-old woman with a history of neuroendocrine pancreatic carcinoma suffering from liver metastasis was treated with microwave ablation (MWA). In this case report, we present a case of intractable biliptysis from a bronchobiliary fistula secondary to an MWA. The patient was diagnosed by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatograph and hepatobiliary scintigraphy. Treatment involved a right hemihepatectomy, a redo-hepaticojejunostomy, and the surgical placement of a transhepatic drain. After 6 weeks of drain placement, this could be removed. The fistula was thus successfully treated.

Introducción: La colecistectomía laparoscópica ambulatoria (CLA) se considera en la actualidad un trazador representativo de la calidad de un servicio de cirugía general. La gran diversidad de unidades de cirugía ambulatoria dificulta la comparativa de los diferentes indicadores de calidad. Objetivo: Conocer los resultados del manejo de la CLA en un centro integrado y como afecta a sus indicadores de calidad. Pacientes y método: Estudio observacional prospectivo entre 2015 y 2021 de las colecistectomías programadas en unidad integrada. Resultados: Se intervinieron 887 pacientes, el 76,5 % (n = 679) programados en régimen ambulatorio. La pernocta no planificada (PNP) media fue del 25,2 % (n = 171), siendo el índice de sustitución del 57,8 %. Las principales causas de PNP fueron: intolerancia digestiva (48,5 %), cirugía compleja (29,2 %) y el dolor (12,8 %). Los tiempos quirúrgicos fueron superiores en los pacientes en régimen de ingreso (p < 0,001) y en aquellos que causaron PNP (p < 0,001). Un tiempo quirúrgico superior a los 45 minutos fue causa de PNP de forma significativa (p = 0,007). La tasa global de infección de sitio quirúrgico fue del 3,1 %,siendo la infección profunda del 0,59 %. Ningún paciente reingresó en las primeras 24 horas, siendo la asistencia a urgencias a 30 días del 8,2 % (n = 73),reingresando el 1,91 % (n = 17) de los pacientes, con una tasa de reintervención del 0,35 % (n = 3). La tasa de fístula biliar fue del 0,67 %. Conclusión: La CLA es una técnica segura y expansiva, aunque la obtención de parámetros de calidad estandarizados es complejo por la diversidad de unidades.(AU)
Introduction: Ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ALC) is currently considered a representative tracer of the quality of a general surgery service. The great diversity of day surgery units makes it difficult to compare the different quality index. Objective: To know the results of the management of the CLA in an integrated center and how it affects its quality index. Patients and method: Prospective observational study between 2015 and 2021 of scheduled cholecystectomies in an integrated unit. Results: 887 patients were operated on, 76.5 % (n = 679) programmed on an outpatient basis. The average unplanned overnight stay (PNP) was 25.2 % (n = 171), with the replacement rate being 57.8 %. The main causes of PNP were: digestive intolerance (48.5 %), complex surgery (29.2 %) and pain (12.8 %). Surgical times were higher in patients on admission (p < 0.001) and in those who caused PNP (p < 0.001). Surgical time greater than 45 minutes was a significant cause of PNP (p = 0.007). The overall rate of surgical site infection was 3.1 %, with deep infection being 0.59 %. No patient was readmitted in the first 24 hours, with 30-day emergency care being 8.2 % (n = 73), readmission rate of 1.91 % (n = 17), with a reoperation rate of 0.35 % (n = 3). The biliary fistula rate was 0.67 %. Conclusion: CLA is a safe and expansive technique, although obtaining quality standard parameters is complex due to the diversity of units.(AU)

BACKGROUND: External biliary fistula, where the residual cyst is associated with the biliary tree, is one of the most common complications after liver hydatid cyst surgery. Surgical procedures become a consideration for patients in whom the biliary fistula persists despite all endoscopic procedures. However, reoperation for biliary fistula after hydatid cyst surgery leads to additional complications and increases morbidity and mortality. AIM: This study aims to treat persistent biliary fistulas that develop after liver hydatid cyst surgery using a simple noninvasive technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: External drainage surgery was performed on 295 patients with liver hydatid cysts. Endoscopic treatment methods were used in patients who developed biliary fistula after surgery. Despite all endoscopic treatment methods, 14 patients developed persistent biliary fistulas. These patients were subsequently treated using the drain clamping technique. FINDINGS: All persistent fistulas occluded in 11.86 days (with a range of 8-20 days). No complications were observed in the one-year follow-up visits. CONCLUSION: Drain clamping, a novel approach to the treatment of persistent biliary fistulas developed despite all available endoscopic methods, can be safely used. This technique resulted in a complete recovery in patients without the need for surgical procedures.

Cholecysto-cutaneous fistula (CCF) is a rare complication of untreated biliary pathology, with fewer than 100 cases documented in the literature. Most are secondary to bacterial infection, although it has also been described in gallbladder adenocarcinoma and post trauma. Its clinical presentation is variable, being able to present systemic affection, and its most frequent external drainage site is in the right hypochondrium. Due to the low incidence of this pathology, and the variety of forms of presentation, its management does not have, to date, standardized bases. We present two cases of patients who consulted in the emergency room at the Hospital Nacional de Clínicas for presenting cholecysto-cutaneous fistula. The treatment of both was surgical.
La fístula colecisto-cutáneas (FCC) es una rara complicación de la patología biliar no tratada, habiendo menos de 100 casos documentados en la literatura. La mayoría son secundarias a infección bacteriana, aunque también fue descripta en el adenocarcinoma de vesícula y posterior a traumatismo. Su presentación clínica es variable, pudiendo presentar afección sistémica, y su sitio más frecuente de drenaje externo es en hipocondrio derecho. Debido a la baja incidencia de esta afección, y a la variedad de formas de presentación, su manejo no tiene hasta el momento bases estandarizadas. Presentamos dos casos de pacientes que consultaron por guardia de urgencias en el Hospital Nacional de Clínicas por presentar fistula colecisto-cutánea. El tratamiento de ambos fue quirúrgico.

RATIONALE: Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) plays a significant role especially in the diagnosis and decompression of bile duct obstruction. However, it is associated with complications such as hemobilia, occlusion of drainage, bile leakage, and even bronchobiliary fistula (BBF). PATIENT CONCERNS AND DIAGNOSES: We herein describe a patient with a complication of BBF caused by long-term indwelling PTBD catheters. She underwent multiple operations including bilioenteric anastomosis, hepatic left lateral lobectomy, and long-term PTBD treatment. Her symptoms were mainly cough, fever, and yellow sputum and her diagnosis was confirmed by sputum culture (bilirubin detection was positive). INTERVENTIONS AND OUTCOMES: The patient recovered uneventfully by minimally invasive treatment, was discharged after 1 week of hospitalization, and the drainage tube was removed 2 weeks later. During 2 years of follow-up, no recurrence of BBF was observed. LESSONS: Patients with long-term indwelling PTBD catheters for biliary tract obstruction may lead to BBF. The treatment plan of BBF is tailored to the patient's individualized characteristics. And minimally invasive treatments might be an effective alternate way for the treatment of BBF. The accurate diagnosis, precision treatment, and multidisciplinary team play important roles in the treatment of BBF.

Introducción: El Íleo biliar (IB) es una obstrucción intestinal mecánica muy poco frecuente, del 1 al 4 % de todas las obstrucciones intestinales, y es más común en pacientes de edad avanzada. Se produce a través de una fístula bilioentérica en el intestino delgado, sobre todo en el íleon distal. Luego de tener un enfoque diagnóstico mediante imagenología, en su gran mayoría, se opta por el tratamiento quirúrgico para eliminar el o los cálculos impactados. El éxito de esta intervención depende en gran medida del tamaño del cálculo biliar, de la ubicación de la obstrucción intestinal y comorbilidades preexistentes. Caso clínico: Mujer de 78 años con cuadro clínico de obstrucción intestinal, emesis de contenido fecaloide y sintomática respiratoria; se evidenció una masa concéntrica a nivel de íleon distal y proceso neumónico concomitante por tomografía toracoabdominal. Se realizó laparotomía exploratoria con enterolitotomía, extracción de cálculo y anastomosis íleo-ileal y fue trasladada a la UCI en donde presentó falla ventilatoria y requerimiento de ventilación mecánica; se confirmó infección viral por SARS-CoV-2 mediante RT - PCR. Discusión: El IB es una obstrucción intestinal que ocurre con mayor frecuencia en pacientes de edad avanzada. Se habla de la fisiopatología y mecanismo de producción de la fístula entérica y se presentan opciones diagnósticas, terapéuticas y quirúrgicas para dirigir el manejo clínico más apropiado. Conclusión: El IB es difícil de diagnosticar. Debido a su baja incidencia, no existe un consenso que paute el manejo a seguir en los pacientes con diagnóstico de IB. Aunque el tratamiento estándar es la intervención quirúrgica, hay diversas opiniones en cuanto al tipo de cirugía a realizar.
Introduction: Biliary ileus (BI) is a very rare mechanical intestinal obstruction, responsible for 1-4% of all intestinal obstructions and more frequent in elderly patients. It occurs through a bilioenteric fistula in the small bowel, mainly in the distal ileum. After a diagnostic imaging approach, the vast majority opt for surgical treatment to remove the impacted stone or stones. The success of this intervention depends largely on the size of the stone, the location of the bowel obstruction and pre-existing comorbidities. Case report: 78-year-old woman with clinical symptoms of intestinal obstruction, fecaloid emesis, respiratory symptoms, concentric mass at the level of the distal ileum and concomitant pneumonic process in the thoraco-abdominal CT scan. Exploratory laparotomy was performed, with total lithotomy, extraction of the calculus and ileo-ileal anastomosis, and she was transferred to the ICU, where she presented ventilatory failure and required mechanical ventilation. SARS-CoV-2 infection was confirmed with RT-PCR. Discussion: IB is an intestinal obstruction that occurs more frequently in elderly patients. The pathophysiology and the mechanism of production of enteric fistula are discussed and diagnostic, therapeutic and surgical options are presented to guide the most appropriate clinical management. Conclusion: Enteric fistula is difficult to diagnose. Due to its low incidence, there is no consensus on the management of patients diagnosed with IB. Although the standard treatment is surgical intervention, there are divergent opinions as to the type of surgery to be performed.

BACKGROUND: Endocystectomy is a conservative surgical approach to managing cystic echinococcosis. Bile leakage is the main complication of this technique. The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors associated with bile leakage and to assess the outcomes and cost efficiency of strategies used to treat bile leakage. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Patients who underwent endocystectomy between 2005 and 2020 were included. The preoperative characteristics, intra- and postoperative outcomes, hospital costs, and cost efficiency (the Diagnosis-Related Group reimbursement minus the overall cost) were evaluated prospectively. A total of eighty patients with 142 cysts were included. Postoperative complications occurred in 17 patients (21%), including 11 patients with bile leakage (type A: 1, type B: 6 and type C: 4 patients, total 13%). Bile leakage was more frequent in patients with preoperative MRI signs of cysto-biliary fistulas or intraoperative visible cysto-biliary fistulas (p = 0.03 and p = 0.04, respectively) and in patients with cysts larger than 8 cm (p = 0.03). Patients with bile leakage who underwent reoperation (type C) had significantly shorter hospital stays (9 vs. 16 days, p<0.01) and better cost efficiency than those who received radiologic or endocscopic interventions (2,072 vs. -2,097 p = 0.01). No mortality was observed, and recurrence was seen in two patients. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Endocystectomy is a safe and efficient technique. Preoperative and intraoperative cysto-biliary fistulas and a cyst diameter larger than 8 cm are correlated to postoperative bile leakage. Early operative management of bile leakage reduces hospital stay and improves cost efficiency compared with radiologic or endoscopic treatments.

Hepatic artery aneurysms (HAA) are rare (20% of all visceral arteries). Most often, HAAs are asymptomatic and detected at autopsy. However, their ruptures and/or bleeding following pressure ulcers in visceral gastrointestinal organs are a significant clinical and diagnostic problem. We present 2 patients with obstructive jaundice and hemobilia. Diagnostics revealed aneurysm of the right hepatic artery with arterio-biliary fistula. Life-threatening hemobilia is a consequence of HAA rupture into biliary system. Endovascular approach is preferable for HAA without clinical manifestations. Awareness of this disease is important for early detection and active surgical intervention before possible complications.

BACKGROUND: The presence of an aberrant right hepatic artery (a-RHA) could influence the oncological and postoperative results after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS: A systematic review and metanalysis were conducted, including all comparative studies having patients who underwent PD without (na-RHA) or with a-RHA. The results were reported as risk ratios (RRs), mean differences (MDs), or hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (95 CI). The random effects model was used to calculate the effect sizes. The endpoints were distinguished as critical and important. Critical endpoints were: R1 resection, overall survival (OS), morbidity, mortality, and biliary fistula (BL). Important endpoints were: postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), delayed gastric emptying (DGE), post pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), length of stay (LOS), and operative time (OT). RESULTS: Considering the R1 rate no significant differences were observed between the two groups (RR 1.06; 0.89 to 1.27). The two groups have a similar OS (HR 0.95; 0.85 to 1.06). Postoperative morbidity and mortality were similar between the two groups, with a RR of 0.97 (0.88 to 1.06) and 0.81 (0.54 to 1.20), respectively. The biliary fistula rate was similar between the two groups (RR of 1.09; 0.72 to 1.66). No differences were observed for non-critical endpoints. CONCLUSION: The presence of a-RHA does not affect negatively the short-term and long-term clinical outcomes of PD.
