Abstract:
Objective:To study the correlation between biliary angle and hepatolithiasis in liver segment Ⅵ.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 46 patients with liver segment Ⅵ bile duct stones treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2017 to January 2021 was carried out. There were 18 males and 28 females, with the age of (55.7±10.5) years. During the study period, 50 patients with cholecystitis were enrolled to form the control group, which consisted of 19 males and 31 females, with the age of (57.4±14.4) years. The angles of the right hepatic duct and the bile duct in segment Ⅵ were measured by the 3D hepatic visualization model. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to analyze factors correlated with formation of segment Ⅵ bile duct stones.Results:The angles of the segment Ⅵ bile duct (124.5±23.1)° and the right hepatic duct (83.5±14.4)° in the study group were significantly larger than the control group(111.8±27.7)°, (76.9±14.8)°. The difference was significant ( t=2.44, 2.10, P=0.017, 0.039). Analysis showed that the angles of segment Ⅵ bile duct ( OR=1.024, 95% CI: 1.006-1.042, P=0.010) and right hepatic duct ( OR=1.035, 95% CI: 1.005-1.065, P=0.020) correlated with bile duct stones in segment Ⅵ, with greater the angles, greater were the rates of bile duct stones in segment Ⅵ. Receiver operating characteristic curve showed that stones were more commonly formed when the angle of bile duct in segment Ⅵ was over 102.295°. The sensitivity, specificity and area under the curve were 91.3%, 34.0% and 0.631 respectively. Conclusion:The angles of segment Ⅵ bile duct and right hepatic duct were risk factors associated with segment VI bile duct calculi.
