Abstract
Background Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an effective minimally invasive operation for the management of choledocholithiasis, while successful extraction is hampered by large diameter of stones. Emerging studies have revealed the close correlation between biliary microbiota and common bile duct stones (CBDS). In this study, we aimed to investigate the community characteristics and metabolic functions of biliary microbiota in patients with giant CBDS. Methods Eligible patients were prospectively enrolled in this study in First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from February 2022 to October 2022. Bile samples were collected through ERCP. The microbiota was analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing. Metabolic functions were predicted by PICRUSTs 2.0 calculation based on MetaCyc database. Bile acids were tested and identified using ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Results A total of 26 patients were successfully included into final analysis, 8 in giant stone (GS) group and 18 in control group. Distinct biliary microbial composition was identified in patients with giant CBDS, with a significantly higher abundance of Firmicutes at phylum level. The unique composition at genus level mainly consisted of Enterococcus, Citrobacter, Lactobacillus, Pyramidobacter, Bifidobacterium and Shewanella. Pyramidobacter was exclusively found in GS group, along with the absence of Robinsoniella and Coprococcus. The contents of free bile acids were significantly higher in GS group, including cholic acid (98.39μmol/mL vs. 26.15μmol/mL, p=0.035), chenodesoxycholic acid (54.69μmol/mL vs. 5.86μmol/mL, p=0.022) and ursodeoxycholic acid (2.70μmol/mL vs. 0.17μmol/mL, p=0.047). Decreasing tendency of conjugated bile acids were also observed. Metabolic pathways concerning cholelithiasis were abundant in GS group, including geranylgeranyl diphosphate biosynthesis, gluconeogenesis, glycolysis and L-methionine biosynthesis. Conclusions This study demonstrated the community structure and metabolic potential of biliary microbiota in patients with giant CBDS. The unique biliary microbial composition holds valuable predictive potential for clinical conditions. These findings provide new insights into the etiology of giant CBDS from the perspective of biliary microbiota.

Long-term outcomes of endoscopic papillary large-balloon dilation (12-15 mm) with or without limited sphincterotomy for removal of bile duct stones. Hepatobiliary Pancreat Dis Int 2022:S1499-3872(22)00154-0. [PMID: 35851505 DOI: 10.1016/j.hbpd.2022.07.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited endoscopic sphincterotomy with large balloon dilation (ES-LBD) and endoscopic papillary large-balloon dilation (EPLBD) have been proven safe and effective for removal of bile duct stones. However, the long-term outcomes are not clear. The aim of this study was to assess the long-term outcomes of EPLBD (12-15 mm) with or without limited sphincterotomy for removal of common bile duct (CBD) stones. METHODS Patients with EPLBD or ES-LBD referred for the removal of bile-duct stones between June 2008 and August 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Complete stone clearance, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)-related adverse events, and late biliary complications during long-term follow-up were analyzed. RESULTS Basic patient characteristics were not significantly different between the groups that underwent EPLBD (n = 168) and ES-LBD (n = 57). EPLBD compared with ES-LBD resulted in similar outcomes in terms of overall successful stone removal (99.4% vs. 100%, P = 1.00) and ERCP-related adverse events (7.7% vs. 5.3%, P = 0.77). The mean duration of the follow-up was 113.6 months and 106.7 months for patients with EPLBD and ES-LBD, respectively (P = 0.13). There was no significant difference between EPLBD and ES-LBD in the incidence of stone recurrence [20 (11.9%) vs. 9 (15.8%); P = 0.49]. Multivariate analysis showed that a diameter of CBD ≥ 15 mm (OR = 3.001; 95% CI: 1.357-6.640; P = 0.007) was an independent risk factor for stone recurrence. CONCLUSIONS The application of a large balloon (12-15 mm) via EPLBD is an effective and safe alternative to ES-LBD for extraction of large CBD stones. Endoscopic sphincterotomy prior to EPLBD may be unnecessary. A diameter of CBD ≥ 15 mm is a risk factor of stone recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of nonradiation endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (NR-ERCP) for choledocholithiasis is still limited. Hereby, we introduced our experience of digital cholangioscopy (DCS)-assisted NR-ERCP for retrieval of common bile duct stones. METHODS Altogether, data of 132 patients who underwent DCS-assisted NR-ERCP for choledocholithiasis were collected. Procedure details, complications, and short-term follow-up were reviewed and analyzed and were compared with those of conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). RESULTS Routine stone extraction and laser lithotripsy were planned in 116 and 16 patients, respectively. Biliary access was successfully achieved by standard biliary cannulation and by advanced techniques in 99 and 33 patients, respectively. Complete stone removal was achieved in a single session in all patients. Routine stone extraction was performed in 117 patients, and laser lithotripsy was applied in 15 patients, among whom 14 patients with planned lithotripsy and 1 unexpected impacted stone found during the procedure. Unexpected right localized intrahepatic stones and purulent cholecystitis were found in 1 and 3 patients, respectively. Three mild and 1 moderate pancreatitis, 5 cases of hyperamylasemia, and 2 cases of leukocytosis occurred as complications. Short-term follow-up revealed no stone residual. Procedure details, technical success, and complications were not statistically different than conventional ERCP. CONCLUSIONS DCS-assisted NR-ERCP is technically feasible, efficient, and safe for retrieval of common bile duct stones. This novel method is superior to conventional ERCP on detecting unexpected concomitant biliary diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND : Endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation (EPLBD) has been increasingly used for the management of large common bile duct (CBD) stones. Although EPLBD is often preceded by endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST), EPLBD alone without EST has been increasingly reported as an alternative to EST for large CBD stones. METHODS : This multicenter randomized trial was conducted at 19 Japanese institutions to compare the efficacy and safety of EPLBD alone versus EST for the removal of large (≥ 10 mm) CBD stones. The primary end point was complete stone removal in a single session. The secondary end points included: overall complete stone removal, lithotripsy use, procedure time, adverse events, and cost. RESULTS: 171 patients with large CBD stones were included in the analysis. The rate of single-session complete stone removal was significantly higher in the EPLBD-alone group than in the EST group (90.7 % vs. 78.8 %; P = 0.04). Lithotripsy use was significantly less frequent in the EPLBD group than in the EST group (30.2 % vs. 48.2 %; P = 0.02). The rates of early adverse events were comparable between the two groups: rates of overall adverse events were 9.3 % vs. 9.4 % and of pancreatitis were 4.7 % vs. 5.9 % in the EPLBD and EST groups, respectively. The procedure costs were $1442 vs. $1661 in the EPLBD and EST groups, respectively (P = 0.12). CONCLUSION : EPLBD without EST for the endoscopic treatment of large CBD stones achieved a significantly higher rate of complete stone removal in a single session compared with EST, without increasing adverse events.

Abstract
Objectives For complicated common bile duct stones (CBDS) that cannot be extracted by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), management can be safely by open or laparoscopic CBD exploration (CBDE). The study aimed to assess these surgical procedures after endoscopic failure. Methods We analyzed 85 patients underwent surgical management of difficult CBDS after ERCP failure, in the period from 2013 to 2018. Results Sixty-seven (78.8%) and 18(21.2%) of our patients underwent single and multiple ERCP sessions respectively. An impacted large stone was the most frequent cause of ERCP failure (60%). Laparoscopic CBDE(LCBDE), open CBDE(OCBDE) and the converted cases were 24.7% (n = 21), 70.6% (n = 60), and 4.7% (n = 4) respectively. Stone clearance rate post LCBDE and OCBDE reached 95.2% and 95% respectively, Eleven (12.9%) of our patients had postoperative complications without mortality. By comparing LCBDE and OCBDE; there was a significant association between the former and longer operative time. On comparing, T-tube and 1ry CBD closure in both OCBDE and LCBDE, there was significantly longer operative time, and post-operative hospital stays in the former. Furthermore, in OCBDE group, choledocoscopy had an independent direction to 1ry CBD repair and significant association with higher stone clearance rate, shorter operative time, and post-operative hospital stay. Conclusion Large difficult CBDS can be managed either by open surgery or laparoscopically with acceptable comparable outcomes with no need for multiple ERCP sessions due to their related morbidities; furthermore, Open choledocoscopy has a good impact on stone clearance rate with direction towards doing primary repair that is better than T-tube regarding operative time and post-operative hospital stay.

Abstract
It is currently unclear whether endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) is associated with increased severe postendoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP)-related morbidity owing to conflicting reports. This study aimed to investigate whether EPBD increases the risk of PEP and hyperamylasemia. Clinical data of patients with choledocholithiasis, treated at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2015 to December 2016 were analyzed. Patients were divided into the EPBD group and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST)+EPBD group, and their characteristics and PEP and hyperamylasemia incidences were compared. Incidences related to dilated balloon diameter were also analyzed. There were no significant differences in patient characteristics and the incidences of PEP (2.6% vs. 0%; P=0.257) and hyperamylasemia (4.4% vs. 5.6%; P=0.954) between the 2 groups. Results were similar even with different balloon dilatations. EPBD without endoscopic sphincterotomy did not increase the risk of PEP and hyperamylasemia. It is a safe option for choledocholithiasis patients.

Abstract
The Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society has developed the 'EPLBD Clinical Practice Guidelines' as fundamental guidelines based on new scientific techniques. EPLBD is a treatment method that has recently become widely used for choledocolithiasis. The evidence level in this field is usually low, and in many instances, the recommendation grading has to be determined on the basis of expert consensus. At this point, the guidelines are divided into the following six sections according to the 'EST Clinical Practice Guidelines': (i) Indications, (ii) procedures, (iii) special cases, (iv) procedure-related adverse events, (v) treatment outcomes, and (vi) postoperative follow up observation.
