Endoscopic balloon dilatation for benign hepaticojejunostomy anastomotic stricture using short double-balloon enteroscopy in patients with a prior Whipple’s procedure: a retrospective study
BACKGROUND Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography using a short double-balloon endoscope (DB-ERC) is a promising minimally-invasive method for accessing hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) anastomosis in patients with surgically altered anatomy. We aimed to evaluate the immediate and long-term outcomes of balloon dilatation for benign HJ anastomotic stricture (HJAS) in patients who had previously undergone...
متن کاملSuccessful endoscopic dilation of severe bilioenteric strictures with a wire-guided diathermic dilator and short-type single-balloon enteroscope.
Recently, balloon enteroscopy has made possible the use of endoscopic approaches to the surgically reconstructed intestine [1–4], so that hepaticojejunostomy strictures can be treated endoscopically. We describe the successful endoscopic dilation of a severe hepaticojejunostomy stricture with a wire-guided diathermic dilator (6-Fr, 180-cm Cysto-Gastro-Set; Endo-flex, Voerde, Germany) (●" Fig.1)...
متن کاملThe Success of Endoscopic Stenting for Anastomotic Stricture of Hepaticojejunostomy after Pancreaticoduodenectomy in a Child with Pancreatic Injury
The management of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) complications for pancreatic injuries in children is rarely reported. We performed PD for an 8-year-old boy with severe pancreatic injury due to a traffic accident. However, the patient suffered from anastomotic stricture of hepaticojejunostomy. We performed repeated double balloon endoscopy (DBE) dilation and stenting for the anastomotic stricture...
متن کاملDouble-balloon enteroscopy-assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiography for the treatment of a strictured Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunal anastomosis.
A 49-year-old patient underwent cholecystectomy and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunal anastomosis (●" Fig.1) for Mirizzi’s syndrome. Jaundice, pruritus, choluria, and acholia developed 4 months later. The total serum bilirubin was 21mg/dL, and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) demonstrated intrahepatic bile duct dilation and anastomotic stricture. Double-balloon enteroscopy was perform...
متن کاملEfficacy of endoscopic treatment using double-balloon enteroscopy for postoperative bile leakage in patients with hepaticojejunostomy
Background and study aims Endoscopic treatment for post-operative bile is technically challenging in patients with altered gastrointestinal anatomy. This study evaluated the effectiveness of using a short-type double-balloon enteroscope to treat postoperative bile leakage after hepaticojejunostomy.
