Repair and reconstruction of common bile duct by poly(lactide) stent
نویسندگان
چکیده
To investigate the effect of repair of bioabsorbable poly(lactide) (PLA) biliary stent in common bile duct (CBD) transection injury in canine prior to the clinical application. Circular tubing CBD stent was prepared by melt extraction technique using PLA. A transection incision was made on CBD of the normal canine, and then closed the incision with laser welding followed the implantation of PLA tubular stent into it. The stent was obtained to determine degradation of PLA in vivo at postoperative week 1, 4, and 12, respectively. The changes of outer diameter and burst pressure of CBD were investigated. Furthermore, serum liver enzyme values and CBD histopathological analysis were examined in the animals. The results noted that the polymer stent exhibited the same biomedical functions as T tubes and no significant tissue response. Therefore, biodegradable PLA stent matches the requirements in repair and reconstruction of CBD to support the duct, guide bile drainage and reduce T-tube-related complications.

متن کاملRepair of a common bile duct defect with a decellularized ureteral graft
AIM To evaluate the feasibility of repairing a common bile duct defect with a decellularized ureteral graft in a porcine model. METHODS Eighteen pigs were randomly divided into three groups. An approximately 1 cm segment of the common bile duct was excised from all the pigs. The defect was repaired using a 2 cm long decellularized ureteral graft over a T-tube (T-tube group, n = 6) or a silico...
متن کاملPedicled omental patch as a bridging procedure for iatrogenic bile duct injury
Iatrogenic bile duct injuries during cholecystectomy can present as fulminant intra-abdominal sepsis which precludes immediate repair or biliary reconstruction. We report the case of a 29-year-old female patient who sustained a bile duct injury after an open cholecystectomy in a neighboring country. She presented to our institution 22 d after initial surgery with septic shock and multiple intra...
متن کاملRepair of Common Bile Duct Injury with the Round and Falciform Ligament after Clip Necrosis: Case Report
Occasionally, as abdominal surgeons, we are confronted with common bile duct injury noted during video laparoscopic or open cholecystectomy. Usually this is solved by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) sphincterotomy and stent, or enteric bypass, suture repair and tube drainage. However, after such procedures, there is a significant number of patients with postoperative steno...

This study reports our experience with 84 patients with iatrogenic bile duct injury who underwent biliary reconstruction in our hospital in last 5 yrs. Magnetic Resonance Cholangio-pancreaticography was the optimal pre operative diagnostic procedure to define the stricture. Most patients underwent hepaticojejunostomy with or without stent. Morbidity and mortality rates were 25.33% and 6.14% res...
