Abstract:
Objective To explore for the effect of endoscopic treatment on biliary leakage and biliary duct stricture. Methods All patients with biliary leakage and biliary duct stricture were treated by endo scopic sphincoterotomy and endoscopic nasobiliary drainage ( ENBD) during abdominal cavity drainage. EN-BD was removed when biliary leakage healed and abdominal cavity drainage ceased for 1-2 weeks were confirmed. Plastic stents were implanted to distend the biliary duct stricture for 2-3 months. Results Twenty two patients with biliary leakage were cured 3-4 weeks after ENBD. Ten out of 13 patients implanted with plastic stent were recovered uneventfully after stent removed, and 2 patients also recovered after installation of double-stents for 3 months, while another case with calculus and stricture of left hepatic duct in spite of implantation of simple-stent suffered repeatedly from biliary tract infection. Conclusions Endoscopic therapy is the first choice in treating biliary leakage or secondary biliary duct stricture.
