AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Portobiliary fistulas are rare but may lead to life-threatening complications. Biliary plastic stent-induced portobiliary fistulas during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography have been described. Herein, we present a case of portal cavernography and recurrent hemobilia after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in which a portobiliary fistula was detected in a patient with portal biliopathy. This likely indicates a change in clinical presentation (from bilhemia to hemobilia) after biliary drainage that was successfully treated by placement of a fully covered, self-expandable metallic stent.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the primary treatment modality for bile duct obstruction. When ERCP is unsuccessful, percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage can be an alternative method. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has emerged as a treatment option for biliary obstruction, especially after ERCP failure. EUS-BD offers transluminal intrahepatic and extrahepatic drainage through a transgastric and transduodenal approach. EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) is an excellent choice for patients with hilar strictures or those with a surgically altered anatomy. The optimal steps in EUS-HGS are case selection, bile duct visualization, puncture-site selection, wire insertion and manipulation, tract dilation, and stent placement. Caution should be taken at each step to prevent complications. Dedicated devices for EUS-HGS have been developed to improve the technical success rate and reduce complications. This technical review focuses on the essential practical points at each step of EUS-HGS.

Background
/Aims: Bile leak is one of the most common complications of liver transplantation. The treatment options for bile leaks include conservative management, surgical re-intervention, percutaneous drainage and endoscopic drainage. We aimed to perform a systematic review to identify the efficacy of endoscopic treatment in the resolution of post-transplant bile leaks. Methods: Two independent reviewers performed systematic literature search in PubMed, ISI Web of Science, grey literature and relevant references in May 2017. Human studies in English with documented post-liver transplant bile leaks were included. Results: Thirty-four studies were included in the final analysis. The pooled efficacy of biliary stents for the resolution of post-transplant bile leaks was 82.43% compared with 87.15% efficacy of nasobiliary tubes. The efficacy of biliary stents was lower for anastomotic leaks (69.23%) compared to T-tube (90.9%) or cut-surface/ cystic duct stump related leaks (92.8%). Similarly, the efficacy of nasobiliary tube was also lower for anastomotic leaks (58.33%) compared to T-tube or cut-surface related leaks (100%). Conclusions: In this systematic review, the overall efficacy was 82.43% in biliary stent group, and 87.15% in nasobiliary tube group. Both biliary stent and nasobiliary tube were more effective in managing non-anastomotic leaks compared to anastomotic leaks.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub

Biliary-enteric communications caused by duodenal ulcers are uncommon, and choledochoduodenal fistula (CDF) is by far the most common type. Usually in this situation, food material does not enter the common bile duct because the duodenal lumen is intact. Here, we report a case in which cholangitis occurred due to food materials impacted through a CDF. Duodenal obstruction secondary to duodenal ulcer prevented food passage into the duodenum in this case. Surgical management was recommended; however, the patient refused surgery because of poor general condition. Consequently, the patient expired with sepsis secondary to ascending cholangitis.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Biliary drainage can improve the quality of life in a patient with obstructive jaundice caused by malignancy. Biliary metal stent insertion is a very useful method because it drains the bile physiologically and patients have little discomfort with the procedure. It has a few complications such as restenosis, liver perforation, bowel perforation, fistula formation and stent dislocation. Perforation and fistula formation are caused by pressure due to the self expanding characteristics of the metal stent. We report here on a case of duodenobiliary fistula that was caused by a biliary metal stent in a patient suffering with hepatocellula carcinoma, and we also include a review of the relevant literature.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Biliary-enteric fistula is a rare disease, and the common causes of biliary-enteric fistula are gallstone, peptic ulcer, malignancy and trauma. It is known that the most common type of biliary-enteric fistula is the cholecysto- duodenal fistula, yet the combination of choledocho- duodeno-colonic fistula is a rare finding. A 78-year-old woman was admitted because she had suffered with right upper quadrant pain, a febrile sense and chills for 2 days. We confirmed the choledocho-duodeno-colonic fistula by performing gastroduodenoscopy, abdominal CT and an upper GI series. So, we report here on an usual case of choledocho-duodeno-colonic fistula, along with a review of the relevant literatures. (Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 2007;34:278⁣281)

AbstractAbstract PDF
Bronchobiliary fistula is a rare condition. It is defined by the presence of a passage between the biliary tract and the bronchial tree. Many conditions can give rise to the developement of such a communication. The patient was a 71-year-old man who had obstructive jaundice due to liver mass. At first, we inserted an uncovered metallic stent for biliary drainage. However, the bile duct was perforated due to the trapping of a catheter in the distal end of the deployed stent. The operation was performed immediately, but only the sump draingage was placed in the retroperitoneum because the perforation site could not be found. After 20 days from the procedure, the patient complained of bilioptysis because of a bronchobiliary fistula. We inserted a covered stent into the previous uncovered metallic stent. Bilioptysis rapidly resolved after the successful procedure. We report a case of iatrogenic bronchobiliary fistula which was managed by endoscopic biliary stenting.

간암 절제술 후 후기 합병증으로 발생한 기관지담관루의 치료 1 예 ( Bronchobiliary Fistula as a Late Complication of Hepatic Resection )
Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 2001;23(2):127-131.   Published online November 30, 2000
AbstractAbstract PDF
A bronchobiliary fistula (BBF), which is defined by an abnormal communication between the biliary system and the bronchial tree, is an uncommon complication after hemihe-patectomy, trauma, hydatid disease, choledocholithiasis, and other causes of biliary obstruction, BBF are rare complication of hepatic resection that can present from days to years after operation. Management of fistula is often very difficult and can be associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Early recognition and proper management are essential to avoid a fatal outcome. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and percutaneous trans-hepatic cholangiography (PTC) are the diagnostic studies of choice and offer the possibility of therapeutic intervention. Although large series in the literature emphasize the surgical management of BBF, the reoperative procedures tend to be complicated, with a significant morbidity and mortality. Nonsurgical intervention via ERCP or PTC are more recently notably successful when resolution of a distal biliary obstruction is accomplished. Only after aggressive attempts at nonoperative, interventional techniques have failed should operative approaches be entertained. We are reporting a case of BBF secondary to hepatic resection of hepatocellular carcinoma which was managed by surgical operation, (Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 2001;23:127-131)

췌관 결석에 동반된 췌담관 누공 1예 ( A Case of a Pancreaticobiliary Fistula Accompanied by Pancreatic Duct Stones )
Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 2000;20(3):231-234.   Published online November 30, 1999
AbstractAbstract PDF
A Pancreaticobiliary fistula is a rare complication of acute necrotizing pancreatitis or pancreatic abscess. One case is herein reported of pancreaticobiliary fistula that was found following removal of pancreatic duct stones by extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy and endoscopic sphincterotomy. The patient was a 53-year old woman who was admitted with epigastric pain and fever. Endoscopic retrograde pancreatography revealed multiple stones in the main pancreatic duct. Pus from the pancreatic duct was drained through the major papilla during cannulation. On balloon cholangiogram obtained after removal of the stones, a direct fistulous connection between the main pancreatic duct and distal common bile duct was noted. It is speculated that pancreatic abscess or mechanical compression of pancreatic duct stones may contribute to the destruction of the intrapancreatic bile duct, which leads to the formation of a pancreaticobiliary fistula.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Bronchobiliary fistula (BBF) is a rare disorder, defined as opening of a passage between the bronchial tree and the biliary tract and presence of bile in the sputum (biloptysis). BBF usually occurs either in the congenital form or following multiple causes, including mainly thoracoabdominal trauma, liver abscess, parasitic liver disease, choledocholithiasis, and post operative biliary stenosis. The cardinal clinical features were respiratory symptoms, jaundice, and cholangitis. Management of fistula is often very difficult and can be associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Early recognition and proper management are essential to avoid a fatal outcome. To date, surgery has been favored as the most efficient therapeutic option, although percutmeous approaches, and more recently, endoscopic sphincterotomy and stent insertion, have succeeded in resolving certain kind of BBF. We are reporting a case of BBF secondary to hepatic resection of hepatocelluar carcinoma which was managed by endoscopic retrograde biliary stenting for keeping optimal bile drainage and surgical operation for resection of recurred tumor and removal of subphrenic abscess, (Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 17: 220-224, 1997)
