Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of direct peroral cholangioscopy (DPCS) by freehand intubation using routine straight-view endoscope for diagnosis and therapy of biliary diseases.Methods Patients with unexplained choledochal stenosis and choledocholithiasis underwent standard ERCP.Native papilla was dilated using endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation (EPLBD)according to the size of papilla and the diameter of common bile duct.DPCS was performed using routine straight-view endoscope,and biopsy or laser lithotripsy was performed according to imaging of DPCS.General data of patients,procedure of ERCP,diagnosis of DPCS,and complications were recorded.Serum amylase after 2 hours and 24 hours,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,leukocyte count,neutrophilic granulocyte percentage,and C-reactive protein were measured.Results A total of 15 patients underwent DPCS,including 5 cases of huge common bile duct stones and 10 cases of common bile duct stricture.The diameter of common bile duct ranged from 1.5 cm to 2.5 cm.Single EPLBD was required in 3 cases,endoscopic sphincteropapillotomy and EPLBD was required in 12 cases to facilitate DPCS.DPCS was successfully completed in 14 cases,including 11 cases in distal common bile duct,3 cases in proximal common bile duct.Among the 14 cases,4 cases used ordinary gastroscope,and 10 cases used ultrathin gastroscope.Laser lithotripsy was successfully completed in 4 choledocholithiasis patients.DPCS was successfully completed in 9 patients of common bile duct stenosis.The reasons of stenosis included 5 calculi,2 normal,1 scar and 2 adenoma.There were 1 case of cholangitis and 4 cases of hyperamylasemia after operation.No procedure related death occurred.Conclusion Freehand DPCS using ordinary gastroscope or ultrathin gastroscope is feasible and safe,and may be clinically useful for diagnosis and therapy of unexplained choledocholithiasis and common bile duct stenosis.
