담도폐쇄증은 간외 담도의 진행성, 특발성, 섬유 폐쇄성 염증질환으로 신생아기에 담도 폐쇄가 나타나고 소아 간이식의 가장 흔한 적응증이다. 조기에 치료하지 않으면 간경화가 진행되어 2세 이전에 사망하게 된다. 오늘날 Kasai portoenterostomy와 간이식 수술기법의 발달로 담도폐쇄증 환자의 90% 이상이 성인기까지 생존한다. 따라서 Kasai portoenterostomy의 성공 가능성은 시간이 지날수록 줄어들기 때문에 조기 진단이 매우 중요하다. 이 고찰은 담도폐쇄증의 원인, 분류, 유병률, 임상양상, 치료와 예후를 최신 지견을 중심으로 종합적으로 검토하고자 한다.

Two dogs were referred to Veterinary Medical Center, Chungbuk National University with the clinical signs of vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia, and jaundice. Both dogs were diagnosed as extrahepatic biliary tract obstruction(EHBO) with concurrent pancreatitis based on dilated common bile duct and hyperechoic or mixed-echoic pancreas in abdominal ultrasonographic examination and serum biochemical abnormalities, such as high serum bilirubin, cholesterol, and increased cholestatic enzyme activity. Percutaneous ultrasound-guided cholecytocentesis(PUCC) was performed to examine bile and decompress the gall bladder. After PUCC with medical therapy, both dogs were steadily improved clinical signs of jaundice and anorexia. Also, cholestatic enzyme activity and serum bilirubin concentration decreased. Any complications that have been described in previous studies, such as peritonitis resulting from bile leakage and hemorrhage, were not identified. It is assumed that percutaneous ultrasound guided cholecystocentesis may be an useful diagnostic and therapeutic tool in canine gallbladder disease and can be used easily and safely to gain bile for diagnosis of bacterial cholecytitis.

목적: 다양한 간외담도질환에서 3차원적 자기공명췌담도조영술(MR cholangiopancreatography, MRCP)의 진단적 가치를 내시경적 역생성 췌담도조영술(ENDOSCOPIC RETROGRADE CHOLANGIOPANCREATOGRAPHY, ERCP)와 비교하여 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 간외담도질환이 의심되는 46명의 환자에 대하여 MRCP와 ERCP를 각각 시행하였다. MRCP는 reverse fast imaging with a steady-state free precession(reverse FISP:PSIF) 기법을 이용하여 얻어낸 후 MIP algorithm을 이용하여 재구성하였다. 담도확장여부와 폐쇄부위 진단에 대한 MRCP의 정확성을 ERCP를 최적기준으로 하여 평가하였다. 또한 악성 및 양성병변의 감별과 종합적인 진단정확도를 MRCP와 ERCP간에 비교하였다. 결과: MRCP의 담도확장여부 예측은 민감도 94.6%, 특이도 75.0%, 정확도 91.1%였다. 폐쇄부위 예측의 정확도는 87.0%였다. 악성과 양성병변의 감별에 있어 MRCP와 ERCP의 민감도, 특이도, 정확도는 각각 76.2%, 87.5%, 82.2%와 71.4%, 83.3%, 77.8%였다. 각각의 지롼에 대한 전체적 진단의 정확도는 MRCP가 60.0%, ERCP가 55.6%였다. 결론: 3D MRCP는 간외담도질환에 있어 ERCP와 비교하여 손색없는 진단적 가치를 가지며, 앞으로 ERCP를 대체할 수 있는 좋은 검사방법이라고 생각된다.

Objective: To compare the efficacy of suprapapillary and transpapillary methods of transhepatic biliary metallic stent placement in malignant biliary strictures and to specify the indications of each method applied. Materials and Methods: Stents were placed in 59 patients. Strictures were categorized as type A (within 3 cm of the ampulla, n = 27), type B (over 3 cm from ampulla, n = 7), type C (within 3 cm of the bending portion, n = 9), or type D (over 3 cm above the bending portion, n=16). The stenting method was suprapapillary in 34 cases and transpapillary in 25. The rates of initial and long-term patency and of early recurrence were compared. Results: Initial patency rates for the suprapapillary and transpapillary methods were 1/7 (14.3%) and 20/20 (100%) respectively for type A (p < 0.0001), 4/5 (80.0%) and 2/2 for type B, 3/7 (42.9%) and 2/2 for type C, and 15/16 (93.8%) and 0/0 for type D. Early recurrence rates were 7/30 (23.3%) using the suprapapillary method and 4/29 (13.8%) using the transpapillary method (p = 0.51). The long-term patency rate did not differ significantly according to either type (p = 0.37) or method (p = 0.62). Conclusion: For good initial patency, the transpapillary method is recommended for strictures of the distal extrahepatic duct near the ampulla and just above the bending portion. Long-term patency is not influenced by the stenting method employed.

Three cases of extrahepatic bile duct disorder were presented. Two cases, a dog and a cat, were related to the obstruction of the extrhepatic bile duct, the other dog was affected with the gall bladder rupture. The clinical signs included anorexia, abdominal distension and vomiting. The laboratory test represented increased hepatic enzymes. On the radiography, hepatomegaly was seen in the obstructive cases, and ascites could be seen in the ruptured case. On the Ultrasonography, dilated gall bladder and extrahepatic bile duct were found in the obstructive cases, and there were ascites, indistinct gall bladder wall, dilation of gall bladder and extrabiliary tract, increased mesenteric echogenicity in the ruptured case. All presented were taken medication, surgical foreign material removal, or cholecystectomy showed complete recovery.

Backgrounds/Aims: Extra hepatic portal venous obstruction (EHPVO) is the most common cause of portal hypertension in Indian children. While endoscopy is the primary modality of management, a subset of patients require surgery. This study aims to report the short- and long-term outcomes of EHPVO patients managed surgically. Methods: All the patients with EHPVO who underwent surgery between August 2007 and December 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Postoperative complications were classified after Clavien-Dindo. Binary logistic regression in Wald methodology was used to determine the predictive factors responsible for unfavourable outcome. Results: Total of 202 patients with EHPVO were operated. Mean age of patients was 20.30 ± 9.96 years, and duration of illness, 90.05 ± 75.13 months. Most common indication for surgery was portal biliopathy (n = 59, 29.2%), followed by bleeding (n = 50, 24.8%). Total of 166 patients (82.2%) had shunt procedure. Splenectomy with esophagogastric devascularization was the second most common surgery (n = 20, 9.9%). Nine major postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo > 3) were observed in 8 patients (4.0%), including 1 (0.5%) operative death. After a median follow-up of 56 months (15-156 months), 166 patients (82.2%) had favourable outcome. In multivariate analysis, associated splenic artery aneurysm (p = 0.007), isolated gastric varices (p = 0.004), preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiography and stenting (p = 0.015), and shunt occlusion (p < 0.001) were independent predictors of unfavourable long-term outcome. Conclusions: Surgery in EHPVO is safe, affords excellent short- and long-term outcome in patients with symptomatic EHPVO, and may be considered for secondary prophylaxis.

Backgrounds/Aims: Biliary surgery in patients with extrahepatic portal vein obstruction with portal cavernoma (PC) is technically challenging, and associated with the risk of bleeding. Therefore, prior portal vein decompression is usually recommended before definitive biliary surgery. Only a few studies have so far reported the safety of isolated laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We aimed to evaluate our experience of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with PC without prior portal decompression. Methods: Prospectively maintained data for patients with PC who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for symptomatic gallstone disease without portal decompression were analyzed. Clinical features, imaging, intraoperative factors, conversion rate, complications of surgery, and long-term outcomes were assessed. Results: Sixteen patients underwent cholecystectomy without portal decompression from 2012 to 2021, of which interventions 14 were laparoscopic cholecystectomies. One patient required conversion (7.1%) to open surgery. Jaundice was present in 5 patients (35.7%), and underwent endoscopic stone clearance before surgery. Median intraoperative blood loss, operative time, and hospital stay were 100 mL (20-400 mL), 105 min (60-220 min), and 2 days (1-7 days), respectively. Blood transfusion was required in two patients (14.2%). Prior endoscopic or percutaneous intervention was associated with significant blood loss and prolonged intraoperative time. Conclusions: In centers with experience, prior portal decompression can be avoided in patients with PC requiring isolated cholecystectomy to treat gallstones or their complications. Laparoscopic surgery is safe and feasible for these patients, and gives excellent outcomes in the selected group.

Variceal bleeding results in significant morbidity and mortality in both children and adults. The guidelines for the management of variceal bleeding are well established in adults but not in children as there have been insufficient pediatric studies of this disorder. In addition, the adult guidelines for treatment of variceal bleeding cannot be applied directly to children as the etiology and natural course of this disease differs between children and adults. Examples of recommended treatments in children include endoscopic variceal ligation as secondary prophylaxis for biliary atresia whereas a meso-Rex shunt operation for extrahepatic portal vein obstruction. In this review, we discuss prophylaxis options and some technical aspects of endoscopic management for variceal bleeding in children.
