Laparoscopic common bile duct (CBD) exploration can be performed following choledocotomy or via the trancystic approach. Laparoscopic CBD exploration is limited in some benign upper gastrointestinal units due to the cost of sterilization of the re-usable choledochoscope. We have recently published a case series confirming the safety and efficacy of the 5mm re-usable bronchoscope for CBD exploration. This case series evaluates a single-use bronchochoscope (Ambu aScopeTM) for laparoscopic CBD exploration. Data were collected from electronic records of the patients from January 2015 until December 2016; all the cases had confirmation of CBD stones. Twenty-one patients had CBD exploration using the disposable bronchochoscope. There were 7 male and 14 female (median age 42). 8 procedures were performed as emergencies and 13 were performed electively. All the cases were done laparoscopically apart from one planned as an open procedure due to previous extensive open surgery. Twenty cases had their CBD cleared using disposable bronchoscope and one needed subsequent special test follow up. Choledocotomy was performed in 15 and Tran’s cystic approach was performed in 6. No T-tube was used in the laparoscopic cases. 2 cases were performed as day case surgery. Median postoperative hospital stay was 2.5 days. In conclusion, the disposable bronchoscope is safe and effective for use in CBD exploration with results comparable to our previously published case series. It has guaranteed sterility and is cost effective compared to the re-usable bronchoscope especially when initial capital outlay, sterile processing and maintenance costs are considered.

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.

Tóm tắt Đặt vấn đề: Sỏi đường mật chính thường gặp là ống mật chủ (OMC) là bệnh lý phổ biến ở Việt Nam. Phẫu thuật nội soi (PTSN) để lấy sỏi qua OMC ngày càng được áp dụng rộng rãi trong điều trị bệnh sỏi mật. Kết hợp tán sỏi qua nội soi đường mật trong lúc phẫu thuật nhằm làm sạch sỏi đặc biệt là sỏi trên gan đang được áp dụng ở nhiều cơ sở. Phương pháp nghiên cứu: Nghiên cứu kết quả ứng dụng PTNS và nội soi tán sỏi qua OMC để điều trị sỏi đường mật chính tại bệnh viện VN-TĐ Uông Bí. Phương pháp can thiệp lâm sàng, mô tả tiến cứu. Đối tượng nghiên cứu là những người bệnh có sỏi đường mật chính (sỏi đường mật trong gan và ngoài gan) được PTNS ổ bụng lấy sỏi đường mật qua OMC có kết hợp tán sỏi điện thủy lực được thực hiện tại bệnh viện VN-TĐ Uông Bí từ 9/2014-9/2017. Thông tin của người bệnh được thu thập trước và sau phẫu thuật, xử lý bằng phần mềm thống kê y học SPSS 16.1. Kết quả: Gồm 31 trường hợp (TH) được nghiên cứu, có 9 nam và 22 nữ, tuổi trung bình là 55,45 ± 15,05. Trong đó sỏi OMC đồng thời với sỏi trong gan là 31, sỏi túi mật kết hợp 9 TH. 21 TH lấy hết sỏi đường mật ngay trong phẫu thuật. 10 người bệnh còn sót sỏi trong gan phải lấy sỏi qua đường hầm Kehr sau 1 tháng. 1 người bệnh phải chuyển mổ mở, 2 người bệnh bị rò mật sau mổ. Thời gian phẫu thuật trung bình là 130.65 ± 46.91 phút, thời gian nằm viện trung bình là 8,58 ± 3,59 ngày. Không có tử vong do phẫu thuật. Kết luận: Đây là những kinh nghiệm PTNS mở OMC có kết hợp với nội soi tán sỏi để điều trị sỏi đường mật đầu tiên của chúng tôi. Chúng tôi nhận thấy phẫu thuật có tính khả thi an toàn cũng như hiệu quả tại bệnh viện VN-TĐ Uông Bí. Abstract Introduction: Common bile duct (CBD) stone is endemic in Vietnam. Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) has gained wide popularity in the treatment of choledocholithiasis. At the same time, electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL) via choledochoscopy might help to clear intrahepatic stones. Material and Methods: The aim of this study is to access the results of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration associating with electrohydraulic lithotripsy via choledochoscopy to clear biliary stones Vietnam – Thuy Dien – Uong Bi Hospital. This is a prospective, interventional and descriptive case series study. Patients with both extra-and intra-hepatic stones who underwent laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) from September 2014 to September 2017 were enrolled in our study. The data was prospectively collected and analysed by using SPSS 16.1. Results: There were 9 men and 22 women with age ranging from 12 to 78 years old (average 55,45 ± 3,59). There were 9 patients with gallbladder stones. Complete bile duct clearance was done in 21 patients. 10 patients with residual intrahepatic stones required extracting stones through T tube tunnel by choledochoscopy and EHL. The average duration of surgery was 130.65 ± 46.91 minutes and the average hospital stay was 8,55 ± 3,59 days. There were one conversion to open surgery and two cases of bile leakage. We had non-fatal postoperative complications. Conclusion: This is preliminary experience of LCBDE in my hospital in the management of choledocholithiasis. It should be considered effective and feasible in the treatment of CBD stones in Vietnam – Thuy Dien – Uong Bi Hospital.

Bile and pancreatic juice were collected from conscious, standing sheep with fistulae of the common bile duct, before and during infusions of secretin to the portal vein, and during infusion of acid to the duodenum. The output of volume and electrolytes, particularly bicarbonate, in bile and in pancreatic juice increased during infusion of secretin. However, the output of volume and of bicarbonate was three to five times higher in bile than in pancreatic juice. When acid was infused into the duodenum a similar result was obtained, and the increment in total bicarbonate output was similar to the amount of acid infused.
