Abstract:
Objective:To analyse the clinical effect of percutaneous transhepatic papillary balloon dilatation (PTPBD) combined with lithotriptic basket in the treatment of large-diameter common bile duct stone (CBDS) after percutaneous transhepatic cholangia drainage (PTCD).Methods:The clinical data of 50 patients treated with PTPBD combined with lithotriptic basket after PTCD under digital subtraction angiography (DSA) for large-diameter CBDS in the Department of Interventional Radiology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from October 2021 to September 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, including 38 males and 12 females, aged (57.6±3.6) years. Clinical data, including gender, age, long diameter of the stone, and surgery-related complications, were recorded. Changes in leukocyte count, total bilirubin, alanine transaminase and C-reactive protein were compared before PTCD and on the 5th postoperative day.Results:All 50 cases were successfully treated with PTCD. Significant improvements were observed in white blood cell count [(7.35±2.36)×10 9/L vs. (11.34±2.81)×10 9/L], total bilirubin [(27.58±6.24) μmol/L vs. (74.35±12.26) μmol/L], alanine transaminase [(41.25±8.65) U/L vs. (141.41±29.16) U/L] and C-reactive protein [(39.34±13.45) mg/L vs. (81.43±31.35) mg/L] before and after PTCD (all P<0.001). The time interval between PTCD and PTPBD was (14.46±1.01) d. Among the 50 patients, 48 cases (96.0%) were successfully treated with PTPBD combined with a lithotriptic basket, while 2 cases (4.0%) failed due to the basket's inability to retrieve the stones. Among the 50 patients after PTCD, 2 cases (4.0%) of abdominal pain, 2 cases (4.0%) of bleeding, and 2 cases (4.0%) of fever. Following PTPBD with lithotriptic basket stone removal, abdominal pain occurred in 3 patients (6.0%) and fever in 2 (4.0%). Conclusion:PTPBD combined with lithotriptic basket in the second stage after PTCD under DSA is a minimally invasive treatment for large-diameter CBDS with safety and effectiveness.
