Abstract Introduction Common bile duct (CBD) stones are detected in approximately 10-15% of patients with gallstone disease. They can be formed in the absence of gallbladder stones or in patients who underwent previous cholecystectomy. Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration has been documented since 1999, with increasing evidence illustrating the effectiveness of the transcystic approach. There is no review of re-exploration of the CBD, due to retained stones, following laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) via this approach. Four cases are presented detailing need for initial intervention, and intra-operative findings. Method Review of four cases in 2020 in Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Each underwent re-do laparoscopic transcystic common bile duct exploration for retained stone, following previous laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Results Each case had successful stone clearance and resolution of symptoms. Conclusions With increasing laparoscopic technology and surgical skill, re-exploration of the CBD following previous LC due to emergency surgical presentations should be performed. This is feasible and safe. We recommend the transcystic approach due to reduced morbidity and high success rates of stone extraction.

The Common

The treatment of choledocholithiasis discovered incidentally during laparoscopic cholecystectomy is not yet standardized. Options include laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE), postoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with endoscopic sphincterotomy (ERCP-ES), and no intervention. We undertook a review of our case series to determine whether LCBDE is obligatory and which LCBDE method is unsuccessful. During the 6-year study period, 91 patients with choledocholithiasis were identified. Fifty-six patients (62%) underwent LCBDE. Thirteen (23%) of these 56 patients subsequently required ERCP. Balloon sweeping of the common bile duct failed in 10 of 21 patients (48% failure) compared to any other combination of techniques with a failure rate of 1/33 (3%; P < 0.001). Two patients did not undergo complete duct exploration because of technical problems. Thirty-five patients (38%) did not undergo LCBDE. Nine of these patients (26%) did not have ERCP-ES. None of the patients who underwent postoperative ERCP-ES required additional procedures or surgery. LCBDE can successfully treat common bile duct stones, with minimal to no morbidity, but is not mandatory for safely treating choledocholithiasis. Additionally, advanced techniques for clearing the common bile duct are more successful. Surgeons should be proficient at performing these techniques.

Abstract The advent of endoscopic and laporoscopic techniques changed surgery in many regards. A number of options exist in the management of cholelithiasis and secondary choledocholithiasis. Among them, laparoscopic common bile duct (CBD) exploration with the choledocotomy followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has gained popularity. However, efforts should be made for minimally invasive or non-invasive to the CBD. For this purpose, we modified the surgical modality by laparoscopic transcystic approach with dilatation of the cystic duct confluence in CBD exploration (LTD-CBDE). The aim of this work was to assess the feasibility, safety and effectivity of LTD-CBDE based on our preliminary experience.

Nulliparous Women

SummaryIn population studies, gallstones are found in 6.5% to 8.4% of nulliparous women, and in 18.4% to 19.3% of women with two to three or more pregnancies (7). Approximately 1 in 500 to 1 in 635 women will require non-obstetrical abdominal surgery during their pregnancies. Pregnancy induced physiological hormonal changes are associated with a decrease of gallbladder motility and increased cholesterol saturation of bile, leading to biliary stone formation (12,6,8). Surgical approach nowadays is the method of choice in the management of symptomatic gallstone disease during pregnancy, preferably if possible surgery should be postponed to second trimester (7,8).Preoperative radiologic imaging using magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography is the golden standard for patients with suspected choledocholithiasis, however, its application during pregnancy is limited (9). Therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) may be used before, during or after laparoscopic cholecystectomy when it is indicated, but unfortunately, its application during pregnancy is associated with considerable number of complications concerning mother and fetus. Alternative approach has been developed and recommended for patients with the common bile duct (CBD) stones providing laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE). Intraoperative cholangiography or intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) are the methods currently used for detection of the CBD stones during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, however, IOUS can be considered as the method of choice during pregnancy (3).IOUS is a dynamic imaging modality that provides interactive and timely information during surgical procedures. Because the transducer is in direct contact with the organ being examined, high-resolution images can be obtained that are not degraded by air, bone, or overlying soft tissue (1).

Nasobiliary Drainage

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with stone extraction is a common and preferred choice for gallstone disease. Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) and laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) are being increasingly used for managing choledocholithiasis and cholecystolithiasis. We report a case of a Hem-o-lok clip that was dropped into the common bile duct (CBD) after LC and surgical common bile duct exploration (CBDE). An 84-year-old man presented with right upper quadrant pain and jaundice for 2 months, and chills and hyperpyrexia for 1 day. The patient had received ERCP and surgical CBDE at a local hospital 3 years previously. The patient first received ERCP and endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD). When laboratory tests were normal, the patient then received LCBDE. During exploration, stones and a Hem-o-lok clip in the CBD were removed. The patient made good progress after LCBDE + T-tube placement and was discharged from hospital. The findings from this case suggest the following: 1) an appropriate therapy method should be considered for certain gallstone diseases, especially for choledocholithiasis and cholecystolithiasis; and 2) a Hem-o-lok clip should be carefully used during laparoscopic or robot-assisted surgery and the Hem-o-lok clip should not be in close proximity to the incision on the CBD.

Operative Findings

Background: Biliary disease is one of the most common surgical problems encountered all over the world. Ultrasound is widely accepted for the diagnosis of biliary system disease. However, it is a highly operator dependent imaging modality and its diagnostic success is also influenced by the situation, such as non-fasting, obesity, intestinal gas. Objective: To compare the ultrasonographic findings with the peroperative findings in biliary surgery. Methods: This prospective study was conducted in General Hospital, comilla between the periods of July 2006 to June 2008 among 300 patients with biliary diseases for which operative treatment is planned. Comparison between sonographic findings with operative findings was performed. Results: Right hypochondriac pain and jaundice were two significant symptoms (93% and 15%). Right hypochondriac tenderness, jaundice and palpable gallbladder were most valuable physical findings (respectively, 40%, 15% and 5%). Out of 252 ultrasonically positive gallbladder, stone were confirmed in 249 cases preoperatively. Sensitivity of USG in diagnosis of gallstone disease was 100%. There was, however, 25% false positive rate detection. Specificity was, however, 75% in this case. USG could demonstrate stone in common bile duct in only 12 out of 30 cases. Sensitivity of the test in diagnosing common bile duct stone was 40%, false negative rate 60%. In the series, ultrasonography sensitivity was 100% in diagnosing stone in cystic duct. USG could detect with relatively good but less sensitivity the presence of chronic cholecystitis (92.3%) and worm inside gallbladder (50%). Conclusion: Ultrasonography is the most important investigation in the diagnosis of biliary disease and a useful test for patients undergoing operative management for planning and anticipating technical difficulties.
