Objective To evaluate the significance of percutaneous transhepatic cholecystoscopy ( PTCCS) in managing cholecystolitheasis. Methods From September 1999 to November 2001, eighty - six patients with symptomatic gallstones were allocated into this study. At first percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage ( PTGBD) was carried out, one week later the formed fistula was dilated by bouginage to 16-22Fr in diameter, thereafter cholecystoscope was inserted into gallbladder through the dilated fistula to extract the stones using basket or electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL). Results PTGBD was attempted successfully in 82 out of 86 cases, PTCCS was performed in 80 of them. The amount of stones ranged from 1 to 76, single stone in 28 patients, stones more than two in 52 , with stone size ranged from 5 to 32 mm, and stones greater than 15mm in 45 cases. The stones were removed only using basket in 28, and by EHL in 54 cases due to their large size. The overall stone removal rate was 97. 5 % (78/80) . Complication of peritonitis appeared in 4 cases (4. 7% ) requiring emergent surgical intervention. The follow - up period with an average of 16. 4 months, gallstones recurred in 2 cases (2.5%). Stones were assayed by intra - red spectrom-etry in 30 of 54 patients with EHL, cholesterol stone existed in 24 of them. Conclusion PTCCS is relatively a safe and effective procedure for those patients with high risk on surgical cholecystectomy, or unsuitable to receive laparoscopic cholecystectomy. If the patients were selected strictly along the rules of indication, the complication and stone recurrence can be avoided.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of recurrent common bile duct (CBD) stones after treatment with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Methods A total of 802 patients with CBD stone and with complete follow-up data were recruited to the study, among which 297 patients were accompanied with gallstone, 222 patients having undergone cholecystectomy before ERCP and 283 having no gallstones. The CBD stone recurrent frequency and the possible risk factors were calculated with uni- and multi-variate logistic regression analysis. Results The patients were followed up at a mean duration of 84. 8 months, and CBD stone re-occurred in 92 (11.5%). Both uni- and multivariate analysis showed gallstones, CBD larger than 1.5 cm, endoscopic mechanical lithotrity (EML) and angle of bile duct less than 120° were risk factors of recurrence. Multivariate analysis showed cholesterol stones, cholangeal stricture or sphincter of Oddis dysfunction (SOD) were all risk factors for reccurrence. Univariate analysis revealed that history of cholecystectomy or Billroth Ⅱ gastrectomy, stones larger than 1.5 cm and multiple stones were risk factors of recurrence. Conclusion For those with CBD stones undergoing ERCP, gallstone,common bile larger than 1. 5cm, EML and the angle of CBD less than 120° are major risk factors of recurrence. History of cholecystectomy and Billroth Ⅱ gastrectomy, SOD, large CBD stone ( ≥1.5 cm), cholesterol stone and multiple stones are also associating risk factors.

Objective To investigate the relationship between bile amylase (BA) elevation and biliary tract disease in patients with normal pancreaticobiliary junction (NPBJ). Methods The bile juice was collected from bile duct in 202 consecutive cases who underwent therapeutic endoscopic retragrade cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for biliary diseases ( biliary bile group), and from gallbladder (GB) in 73 consecutive cases who underwent percutaneous transbepatic cholecystoscopy for extraction of GB stone ( GB bile group). In biliary bile group, in addition to the measurement of BA, the level of lipnse (n =68), bacteria culture ( n = 149 ), manometry of Oddi's sphincter ( n = 27 ) and bile duct ( n = 38) were also performed. In GB bile group, additional GB biopsy was taken in 31 cases. No patient with pancreaticobiliary maljunction, history of cholangiojejunostomy or post-endoscopic sphincterotomy was included in the study. Results In biliary bile group, BA level was elevated in 95 patients (47. 0% ), in which there was no significant difference between neoplastic and non-neoplastic cases ( 56. 9% vs. 43.7%, P > 0. 05 ), although BA was elevated in most patients with hiler cholangiocarcinoma (7/9). The level of BA was correlated with bile lipase (r =0. 561 ), but not with pressure of Oddi's sphincter or bile duct. No significant difference in positive rate of bile bacteria culture was detected between patients with normal BA level and those with elevated level. In GB bile group, BA level was elevated in 25 patients (34. 3% ), in which the frequency of GB epithelium dysplasia is 87.5%, which was significantly higher than that from patients with normal BA level ( P < 0. 001 ). Conclusion The patients with biliary tract disease and NPBJ have high incidence of reflux of pancreatic juice into bile duct. In patients with elevated BA level, there was no significant difference between incidences of neoplastic or non-neoplastic disease, while the frequency of GB epithelium dysplasia and hilar cholangiocarcinoma were higher than those from patients with normal BA level.

Objective To explore the impact of basal sphincter of Oddi (SO) pressure on pancreatobiliary reflux (PBR).Methods A total of 120 consecutive patients who received therapeutic ERCP for biliary tract diseases with or without the history of EST were enrolled,and were assigned to normal basal SO pressure group (n =23),elevated basal pressure group (n =55) and EST group (n =24).Basal SO pressure,bile amylase (BA) and bacteria culture findings were compared between the three groups.Results There were no differences in positive rate of bacteria culture,SO pressure increase and BA between the normal basal SO pressure group and elevated basal pressure group.In the latter group,negative correlation was observed between SO pressure and BA.The BA value [median(quartile range)] in patients with common bile duct ≥ 15 mm [4270 (12 337)U/L] was significantly higher than that in patients with common bile duct < 15 mm [279.5 (1370) U/L].Furthermore,significant difference in both the proportion of elevated BA patients (83.3% vs.59.0%) (P <0.05) and the positive rate of bacteria culture (75.0% vs.33.3%) was seen between the intact papilla patients in the former two groups and those in EST group (P < 0.05).Conclusion There was no direct correlation between the elevated basal SO pressure and PBR,but marked increase in diameter of common bile duct can lead to a rise in BA.Moreover,although EST can bring about PBR and bile bacterial infection,it may facilitate the outflow of the refluent pancreatic juice by relieving cholestasis.
