Objective To investigate the recurrence of intrahepatic bile duct stones and study the relations to the primary intrahepatic stones.Methods One hundred and twenty nine patients who experienced complete lithotomy were followed up for 2-10 years. Results Thirty five cases had the recurrence of intrahepatic stones at 49 sites (27.13%). The recurrent stones were found at following sites: 13 at left duct, 12 right duct , 8 left medial segment, 6 right anterior segment, 4 right posterior segment, 3 left lateral segment, 3 caudate. Nine cases were asymptomic, 16 cases had slight symptoms and 10 cases suffered from the serious attacks of stones. The time of recurrence was from 2 to 9 years (5.49±2.25 years) after surgery. The recurrent rate was 27.13% in our group. Conclusion The recurrence of intrahepatic stones also developed at several sites in the liver. The recurrence of intrahepatic stones had a tendency to develop at the primary sites. The recurrence of intrahepatic stones may be asymptomic and most patients suffered from slight attack. Liver resection is the best way to prevent the recurrence from intrahepatic stones.
Objective To study the effect of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration via choledochotomy and T tube drainage. Metheods Laparoscopic exploration of common bile duct with choledochoscopy via choledochotomy was performed in 105 patients, T tube was placed in all patients with laparoscopic suturing technique.Results Except negative exploration in 2 cases, duct clearance was achieved in 99 per cent (102/103) of patients. Conclusion Laparoscopic exploratoin of common bile duct via choledochotomy and T tube drainage is one of the safe and effective management options for common bile duct calculi.
The development of the fifth generation mobile networks (5G) technology has brought great breakthroughs and challenges to clinical medicine and medical education. In the context of “5G + medicine”, the development of telemedicine, emergency rescue, intelligent analysis and diagnosis has opened up new horizons for clinical medicine. Facing the constant impact of high technology, the focus of medical education should be on the cultivation of students’ integrated medical view, critical thinking, communication abilities and skills, and creativity. The “5G + education” model will be presented by means of virtual reality, artificial intelligence, cloud computing and other technologies, providing a new direction for the development of medical education. This article summarizes the key points and prospects of medical education under 5G technology in order to provide a reference for the field of medical education to adapt to the changes in the 5G era.
Objective To evaluate the linkage between the proxmal as well as long term outcome and choice of therapeutical modality for benign hilar stricture of bile duct prospectively. Methods 25 patients have been catergorized into 4 groups according to different pathogen and the proxmal as well as long term outcome after pathogen based management have been studied prospectively. Results The hepatic portal cholangio-jejunostomy applied for iatrogenic hilar stricture of bile duct has been proved to be effective and the incidence of refulux cholangitis is only 10%(1/10). Hepatic hilar plasty procedures keep the physiological entitity of bile duct and the vital, sufficient autologous repair materials as well as reliable operation design are needed. Resection of atrophic right liver lobe bearing hepatolithiasis combined hepatic hilar plasty has reached both elimination of liver focus and maintaining the physiological entitity of bile duct. The ballon dilation for mild ring-like hilar stricture of bile duct is valide but not for hilar tubular stricture of secondary sclerosing cholangitis.Conclusion The strategy of individualized management (pathogen based management) for benign hilar stricture of bile duct has proved to be reliable and effective.
Several unusual manifestations such as white bile draining in common bile duct (14 cases) and casual massive bleeding (2 cases ) during and following hepatobiliary and pancreatic operations is reported. These manifestations were in fact signs of hepatic insufficiency. The manners of manifestations of hepatic insufficiency and their treatment are discussed, with a stress that liver-protective treatment and nutritional support are the fundamental modalities.
Objective To investigate the cell compatibility of the porcine acellular lumens matrix substituting bile duct and evaluate the method to guide the clinical application of the porcine lumens scaffold. Methods Porcine bile duct and ureter were treated using detergent sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS) and 1% Triton X-100 to prepare the acellular lumens matrix. The toxic effects of different concentrations of acellular lumens matrix extract were tested by MTT to assess the proliferation of human scarfskin fibroblasts (HSF). The cytotoxicity of the target biomaterial was graded according to the national standards. The growth manner of the human intrahepatic bile duct endothelial cells (HIBDCs) seeded on the acellular lumens matrix was studied after 20 d under scanning electron microscopy.Results Acellular lumens matrix was completely devoid of cellular and nuclear material while maintaining the integrity of extracellular collagenous matrix. The cytotoxicity score of the matrix was in grade 0－1, which meant the biomaterial had no cytotoxicity. The microscopy showed the seeded HIBDCs had the potentials of spread and proliferation on the matrix, but there were few cells infiltrating into the acellular lumens matrix. Conclusions Porcine acellular lumens matrix is a natural non-toxic xenogenic lumens substitute with good cell affinity, but the time of adherence is long, so further endeavors are needed to improve the progress of adherence.
Objective To investigate the effect of laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy on common bile duct (CBD) stones with primary suture of the CBD. Methods Totally 523 patients of gallbladder stone companied with CBD stones or choledochectasia (diameter ≥0.8 cm) from September 1998 to December 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Results The primary suture of the CBD incision was successfully performed in 487 patients. The CBD stones were completely removed during the operation in 400 patients. Nothing was found in 87 cases. In 10 cases conversion to open surgery were performed and in 26 cases the T tube drainage was put into the CBD in choledocholithotomy. Average operative time was 90 min and average bleeding volume was 50 ml. All patients took food at 24 h, returned general activity on 2-3 d and discharged on 5 d after operation. Postoperative biliary leakage occurred in 29 cases with drainage average volume of 35 ml/d and continued 1-6 d, which were cured by non-operation therapy. Conclusions The primary suture of the CBD during the laparosocopy combined with choledochosopy in choledocholithotomy is a safe and effective operation with less invasion, less pain and quicker recovery. CBD incision suture without T tube drainage can be done when CBD stones are cleared completely and no stenosis is found in extrahepatic bile duct.
Objective To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of ERCP/S+LC and LC+LCBDE in cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis. Methods A fully recursive literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, EMbase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials in any language. By using a defined search strategy, both the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and controlled clinical trials on comparing ERCP/ S+LC with LC+LCBDE in cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis were identified. Data were extracted and evaluated by two reviewers independently. The quality of the included trials was evaluated. Meta-analyses were conducted using the Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 5.0.2 software. Results Fourteen controlled clinical trials (1 544 patients) were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that: a) There were no significant difference in the stone clearance rate between the two groups (RR=0.96, 95%CI 0.92 to 1.01, P=0.14); b) There were no significant difference in the residual stone rate between the two groups (OR=1.05, 95%CI 0.65 to 1.72, P=0.83); c) There were no significant difference in the complications morbidity between the two groups (OR=1.12, 95%CI 0.85 to 1.55, P=0.48); d) There were no significant difference in the mortality during follow-up visit between the two groups (RD= 0.00, 95%CI –0.03 to 0.03, P=0.84); e) The length of hospital stay in the LC+LCBDE group was shorter than that of the ERCP/S+LC group with significant difference (WMD= 1.78, 95%CI 0.94 to 2.62, Plt;0.000 1); and f) The LC+LCBDE group was superior to the ERCP/S+LC group in the aspects of procedure time and total hospital charges. Conclusion Although there aren’t differences in the effectiveness and safety between the ERCP/S+LC group and the LC+LCBDE group, the latter is superior to the former in procedure time, length of hospital stay and total hospital charges. For the influencing factors of lower quality and astable statistical outcomes of the included studies, this conclusion has to be verified with more strictly designed large scale RCTs.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress of tissue engineered bile duct in recent years.MethodsThis paper summarized recently-published papers related to tissue-engineered bile duct on in vitro test platform, scaffold materials, acquisition methods of seed cells, and in vivo repair effectiveness after the fusion of seed cells and materials, in an attempt to review the basic and clinical application studies of tissue-engineered bile duct.ResultsTissue-engineered bile duct had been developing rapidly. At present, great progress had been made in the fields of in vitro test platform, scaffold materials, seed cells, and repair effectiveness in animal models. However, further study was still needed in terms of its clinical application. The external bile duct platform included 3D printing and biological simulation; in the aspect of scaffold material, apart from the progress of various artificial materials, acellular matrix was introduced; the selection of seed cells included the induction and differentiation of bile duct-derived stem cells, human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), hepatic oval cell (HOC), pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), and other stem cells; animal models of tissue-engineered bile ducts had also achieved good results in animals such as pigs and dogs.ConclusionThe development of tissue-engineered bile duct will promote the progress of fundamental in vitro studies on extrahepatic biliary tract diseases, thus introducing new options to the clinical treatment of extrahepatic biliary tract injuries.
