Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic magnetic compression bilio-enteric anastomosis for the treatment of biliary obstruction after complex abdominal surgery.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 3 patients with biliary obstruction after complex abdominal surgery who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University between January 2012 and December 2019 were collected. There were 2 males and 1 female, aged from 27 to 57 years, with a median age of 56 years. The 3 patients underwent endoscopic magnetic compression bilio-enteric anastomosis to complete internal drainage of bile ducts after several unsuccessful endoscopic or interventional therapy. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow up using outpatient examination was performed to detect the biliary stent, liver function and patency of anastomotic stoma up to December 2019.Results:(1) Surgical situations: all the 3 patients underwent successful endoscopic magnetic compression bilio-enteric anastomosis, including 2 cases with magnetic compression choledochoduodenal anastomosis and 1 case with magnetic compression choledochojejunostomy. The length of biliary stricture, length and width of magnetic device subsidiary magnet/patent magnet, time of magnetic compression for the 3 patients were 7.1 mm, 3.0 mm, 2.0 mm, 7 mm/8 mm, 6 mm/6 mm, 5 mm/5 mm, 130 minutes, 90 minutes, 75 minutes, respectively. (2) Postoperative situations: the time to biliary tract recanalization after operation for the 3 patients were 15 days, 8 days, 9 days, respectively. None of the patients encountered gastrointestinal perforation, hemorrhage or infection. (3) Follow-up: the biliary stents were inserted into the anastomotic stoma for the 3 patients after biliary tract recanalization, including a catheter of percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage (PTCD) with 12 Fr size, a biliary plastic stent with 7 Fr size, a catheter of PTCD with 14 Fr size, respectively. The biliary stents were removed after 17 months, 2 months, and 6 months from the 3 patients, respectively. The 3 patients were followed up for 40 months, 20 months, and 5 months respectively after removing biliary stents, and the concentration of total bilirubin, concentration of aspartate aminotransferase, concentration of alanine aminotransferase for the 3 patients were 5-19 μmol/L, 25-40 U/L, and 20-35 U/L, respectively. The results of ultrasonic examination or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography examination showed that no intra-hepatic bile duct dilation or stricture of choledochojejunostomy was found within the 3 patients. One of the 3 patients was hospitalized for biliary tract infection after 37 months from removing biliary stents, and the results of ultrasonic examination or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography examination showed intrahepatic cholelithiasis. The cholelithiasis was removed under endoscopy and stricture of choledochojejunostomy was not found within patient by the endoscopic examination or cholangiography examination.Conclusion:The endoscopic magnetic compression bilio-enteric anastomosis is a safe and feasible technique for the treatment of biliary obstruction after complex abdominal surgery with good long-term effects.
