Abstract:
Congenital bile duct cysts, which is a kind of malformation of bile duct, will lead to the inflammation in the bile duct system for a long time. Therefore, patients with cholelithiasis and cyst canceration have a risk. Surgical operation is the only treatment option for the congenital bile duct cysts patients. Resection of the cysts and complete " biliary-pancreatic duct shunt" are the key points of the standardized treatment of congenital bile duct cysts. The non-standard surgical treatment will bring the postoperative complications such as the stricture of choledochojejunostomy, the remnant cysts and even the canceration of cysts, which will seriously affect the quality of life and threaten the health of patients. Based on the retrospective study of congenital bile duct cysts patients in Eastern Hepatobiliary Hospital, the author proposed a new classification system according to the pathological and anatomical characteristics of congenital bile duct cysts. The congenital bile duct cysts can be divided into three regions and five types, i. e. localized type and diffuse type of extrahepatic bile duct cysts of hilar, trunk and terminal type; central type; and intrahepatic bile duct cysts of limited and diffuse type. It is our hope that this typing system will accurately guide the design and implementation of surgical treatment plans for congenital bile duct cysts and reduce the risk of long-term postoperative complications for patients.
