Liu CH, Chen ZW, Yu Z, Liu HY, Pan JS, Qiu SS. Clinical efficacy of laparoscopic cholecystectomy plus cholangioscopy for the treatment of cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis. World J Gastrointest Surg 2024; 16:2080-2087. [DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v16.i7.2080] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) plus laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the main treatment for cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis. However, the treatment is unsatisfactory, and the development of better therapies is needed.
AIM To determine the clinical efficacy of LC plus cholangioscopy for cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis.
METHODS Patients (n = 243) with cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis admitted to The Affiliated Haixia Hospital of Huaqiao University (910th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force) between January 2019 and December 2023 were included in the study; 111 patients (control group) underwent ERCP + LC and 132 patients (observation group) underwent LC + laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE). Surgical success rates, residual stone rates, complications (pancreatitis, hyperamylasemia, biliary tract infection, and bile leakage), surgical indicators [intraoperative blood loss (IBL) and operation time (OT)], recovery indices (postoperative exhaust/defecation time and hospital stay), and serum inflammatory markers [C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were compared.
RESULTS No significant differences in surgical success rates and residual stone rates were detected between the observation and control groups. However, the complication rate, IBL, OT, postoperative exhaust/defecation time, and hospital stays were significantly reduced in the observation group compared with the control group. Furthermore, CRP, TNF-α, and IL-6 Levels after treatment were reduced in the observation group compared with the levels in the control group.
CONCLUSION These results indicate that LC + LCBDE is safer than ERCP + LC for the treatment of cholecystolithiasis combined with choledocholithiasis. The surgical risks and postoperative complications were lower in the observation group compared with the control group. Thus, patients may recover quickly with less inflammation after LCBDE.

Gastroenterology Res 2024; 17:126-132. [PMID: 38993550 PMCID: PMC11236342 DOI: 10.14740/gr1710] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Background With the advancement of laparoscopic technology, the combination of laparoscopy, choledochoscopy, and holmium laser lithotripsy has emerged as an effective treatment modality for both choledocholithiasis and hepatolithiasis. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of this approach. Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of 76 patients diagnosed with choledocholithiasis and hepatolithiasis between April 2021 and March 2023. Patients were divided into two groups based on the treatment plan: the control group, which underwent traditional laparotomy and choledochoscopy lithotripsy (n = 38), and the experimental group, which underwent laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy and holmium laser lithotripsy (n = 38). Comparative analysis was performed on various operation-related parameters, stone-free rate, complication rates, and changes in biochemical, liver function, inflammatory, stress response indicators, and pain scores between the two groups. Results The experimental group demonstrated significantly shorter stone removal time, reduced intraoperative bleeding, and shorter hospital stay compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Moreover, the experimental group exhibited lower incidence of postoperative complications and lower pain scores at 2 weeks to 3 months post-operation (P < 0.05). Biochemical indicators including total bile acid (TBA), total bilirubin (TBIL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) were significantly lower in the observation group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Additionally, stress and inflammation indicators were also lower in the experimental group (P < 0.05). Conclusions The combination of laparoscopy, choledochoscopy, and holmium laser lithotripsy presents favorable therapeutic outcomes in the management of choledocholithiasis and hepatolithiasis, indicating its potential for widespread clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Choledocholithiasis affects 10%-15% of individuals with gallbladder stones. Approximately 7%-15% of cholecystectomy patients develop common bile duct (CBD) stones. It occurs more frequently in older age groups. It may result in a complete or partial blockage of the bile duct and present as pancreatitis or cholangitis due to gallstones. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of primary closure of duct and T-tube drainage after open choledochotomy and to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of primary closure. MATERIAL AND METHODS From January 2018 to December 2021, this descriptive study was carried out in the surgical department of the Hayatabad Medical Complex in Peshawar. In total, 60 patients who had open choledocholithotomy after a failed endoscopic extraction were included in this study. Of these, 30 (50%) patients got primary duct closure after choledochotomy, while 30 (50%) patients had T-tube insertion. RESULTS Among the total of 60 patients (primary closure: 30 and T-tube drainage: 30 patients), 10 (16%) were males, while 50 (84%) were female patients. The mean age was recorded as 45.9±13.9, and the mean hospital stay in days in both groups was 4.87±1.4 (T-tube: 5.24±1.50 and primary closure: 4.50±1.3). Complications developed in group A were a biliary leak in three (10%) patients, postoperative jaundice in two (6.5%) patients, wound infection in three (10%), intra-abdominal collection in three (10%) patients, and dislodgement of a tube in two (6.5%), while 17 (57%) patients had no complications developed. CONCLUSION If the duct is free of stones, as determined by preoperative choledochoscopy, primary closure of the common bile duct (CBD) is a safe, cost-effective procedure with less morbidity than regular T-tube drainage after open choledochotomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND T-tube drainage following laparoscopic common bile duct (CBD) exploration may lead to T-tube displacement and water-electrolyte disorders, affecting patients' quality of life. In particular, biliary peritonitis may develop in a small number of patients after T-tube removal, requiring reoperation. This prospective cohort study was performed to investigate the safety and feasibility of primary closure following laparoscopic CBD exploration for the treatment of choledocholithiasis. METHODS Patients who were treated for choledocholithiasis by laparoscopic CBD exploration with primary closure from January 2019 to March 2022 comprised the PC group (n = 145). Patients who were treated for choledocholithiasis by laparoscopic CBD exploration with T-tube drainage during this period comprised the TD group (n = 153). Perioperative and follow-up outcomes were collected and statistically analyzed. RESULTS The TD and PC groups showed significant differences in the operation time (124.6 ± 40.8 vs. 106 ± 36.4 min, P = 0.000) and postoperative hospital stay (7.1 ± 2.6 vs. 5.9 ± 2.0 days, P = 0.000). No significant difference was observed in terms of blood loss, the ratio of conversion to laparotomy, and postoperative parameters. Preoperative albumin and total bilirubin levels were the risk factors of bile leakage after surgery. No patients developed CBD stricture or carcinogenesis, The rates of residual and recurrent stones in the TD and PC groups were 1.97% vs. 1.40% and 1.31% vs. 1.40%, respectively, with no significant difference (P = 1.000 for both). CONCLUSIONS Primary closure following laparoscopic CBD exploration is safe and feasible for selected patients with choledocholithiasis.

Clin J Gastroenterol 2022; 15:513-521. [PMID: 35247181 DOI: 10.1007/s12328-022-01615-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2021] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Greater than or equal to 8 mm was often used as the safe diameter of primary duct closure (PDC) after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) in previous studies, but it is impossible to verify the source of this safe diameter, and lack of evidence for the safe diameter of PDC. Hence, this study evaluates the incidence of postoperative complications by single-arm meta-analysis to demonstrate the feasibility of using 8 mm as the safe diameter of PDC, so as to provide reference for clinical selection. Eligible studies were searched by MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science from January 1995 to May 2021, investigating eligible literature using PDC after LCBDE for methods of common bile duct closure. The single-arm meta-analysis was analyzed by "meta" package under R 4.0.5, and the pooled incidence of postoperative complications was calculated. Twelve literatures were enrolled in this single-arm meta-analysis including 792 patients. The pooled complications rate including total complications (13.1%, 95% CI 10.1-15.6%), total biliary duct-related complications (9.4%, 95% CI 7.4-11.6%), residual stones (1.3%, 95% CI 0.3-2.7%), bile leakage (5.1%, 95% CI 3.5-6.9%), postoperative pneumonia (2.1%, 95% CI 0.8-3.8%), postoperative acute pancreatitis (1.8%, 95% CI 0.2-4.3%), and stone recurrence (2.6%, 95% CI 1.1-4.4%). The clinical indication of PDC after LCBDE should follow that the diameter of common bile duct ≥ 8 mm as the safe diameter.

Abstract
This study was to explore the effect of a continuous nursing model based on the mobile Internet in the home nursing of patients with T-tube after hepatolithiasis surgery. A continuous nursing system based on the mobile Internet was constructed, and 94 discharged patients with T-tube after biliary tract surgery were selected as the study subjects. The differences of complication rate, referral rate, nursing satisfaction, self-care ability, and quality of life score through the 36-item short form health survey (SF-36) after routine health education nursing (control group, n = 47) and continuous nursing mode based on the Internet (observation group, n = 47) were explored. The results showed that the success rate of the continuous nursing system based on mobile Internet in processing user requests was 96.2%. After nursing, the total complication rates of the control group and the observation group were 34.0% and 6.4%, the total satisfaction rates were 42.6% and 87.2%, and the referral rates were 23.4% and 6.4%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After nursing, the scores of self-care ability and SF-36 quality of life in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In summary, the continuous nursing platform based on mobile Internet technology can meet the needs of users, and the nursing mode can significantly improve the home self-care ability of discharged patients with T-tube after surgery and improve the nursing effect, which is conducive to the rehabilitation of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety and feasibility of primary closure after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) have been confirmed in elective settings. However, the suitability of primary closure after LCBDE in the treatment of patients with non-severe acute cholangitis in emergency settings remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to explore the safety and feasibility of LCBDE with primary closure in patients with non-severe acute cholangitis. METHODS Consecutive patients with choledocholithiasis combined with gallbladder stones treated by LCBDE with primary closure at our institution from January 2015 to April 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. These patients were divided into two groups: emergency group (patients with non-severe acute cholangitis) and elective group (patients without acute cholangitis). The demographic and perioperative data of the two groups were compared. RESULTS One hundred twenty-two patients received LCBDE combined with primary closure during this period, including 70 in the emergency group and 52 in the elective group. Baseline characteristics were balanced in both groups, except for higher levels of white blood cells (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and albumin in the emergency group. No postoperative mortality occurred in either group. Compared to the elective group, the emergency group had a longer operation time (P = 0.011), and more estimated blood loss (P < 0.001). No significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of conversion (2.9% vs. 0.0%, P = 0.507), use of baskets (84.2% vs. 78.8%, P = 0.481), use of electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL) (2.9% vs. 1.9%, P = 1.000), or postoperative hospital stay (P = 0.214). The incidence of postoperative complications was comparable between the two groups. During the follow-up period, none of the patients experienced biliary stricture, and 1 case of stone recurrence occurred in the elective group. CONCLUSIONS LCBDE with primary closure for choledocholithiasis patients with non-severe acute cholangitis has the equivalent efficacy and morbidity to elective surgery. Primary closure after LCBDE is a safe and feasible option for choledocholithiasis patients with non-severe acute cholangitis.

Abstract
Although the feasibility of T-tube drainage after emergency laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) has been reported, the safety and effectiveness of primary closure (PC) after LCBDE in patients with non-severe acute cholangitis (AC) remain uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the safety and feasibility of PC after LCBDE in patients with non-severe AC. Consecutive choledocholithiasis patients with non-severe AC who were treated with a laparoscopic approach at our institution between January 2014 and March 2021 were enrolled. These patients were divided into two groups (PC group and T-tube group) based on the way of closure of the common bile duct. The baseline characteristics and perioperative data between the two groups were compared. A total of 230 patients who underwent LCBDE met the inclusion criteria, and there were 94 patients in the PC group and 126 patients in the T-tube group. Baseline data were balanced between the two groups, except that there was less acute cholecystitis in the PC group than in the T-tube group (P = 0.027). Compared to the T-tube group, the PC group had a shorter operation time (P < 0.001), less estimated blood loss (P < 0.001), less use of electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL) (P = 0.001), shorter time of drainage removal (P < 0.001) and postoperative hospital stay (P < 0.001) and residual stones (P = 0.029). There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of conversion (4.3 vs. 4.4%, P = 1.000), intraoperative transfusion (0.0 vs. 0.7%, P = 1.000), use of basket (71.2 vs. 69.9%, P = 0.816), postoperative bleeding (1.1 vs. 0.7%, P = 1.000), biliary leakage (4.3 vs. 3.7%, P = 1.000), incision infection (1.1 vs. 2.2%, P = 0.649), pneumonia (2.1 vs. 1.4%, P = 1.000), or cholangitis (1.1 vs. 2.9%, P = 0.651). No postoperative mortality occurred in either group. During the follow-up period, no biliary stricture occurred in the two groups, and two patients in the T-tube group were found to have stone recurrence. PC after LCBDE in choledocholithiasis patients with non-severe AC shows superior clinical outcomes to T-tube drainage in terms of the operation time, estimated blood loss, time of drainage removal, postoperative hospital stay, and residual stones. PC is a safe and feasible treatment for choledocholithiasis patients with non-severe AC after LCBDE.

Abstract
Choledocholithiasis is a common disease of the biliary system. The traditional surgical method for this is to remove the gallbladder, open the common bile duct, remove the stones and place a T-tube in the common bile duct for drainage. Common bile duct exploration usually requires a T-tube. Without a T-tube, there is a risk of bile leakage due to pressure in the bile duct. After the T-tube is placed, patients experience some form of discomfort and inconveniences with daily life, and there is also a risk of accidental detachment, as well as a risk of bile leakage when the T-tube is removed. In severe cases, patients may need to be hospitalized again. With advancements being made in surgical instruments and technology, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration has been widely used. Due to the carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration requires a long period of time for T-tube sinus formation compared with open surgery. Therefore, the extubation time needs to be prolonged in laparoscopic common bile duct exploration. The use of an internal drainage tube may be used in order to avoid the aforementioned disadvantages. Since 2012, the authors have performed laparoscopic common bile duct exploration with the placement of an internal drainage tube for the treatment of common bile duct stones, and have completed >160 surgeries. The present study provides a summary of the data of these 160 cases. The 160 patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Following the removal of the stones, an internal drainage tube was placed, and the common bile duct incision was primary sutured. All patients were discharged, and there were no complications, such as biliary leakage, biliary bleeding and biliary stricture. On the whole, the present study demonstrates that where possible, the placement of an internal drainage tube in laparoscopic common bile duct exploration is safe and reliable, and may be used to avoid the risk of bile leakage without a T-tube, any inconveniences for patients, and the risk of bile leakage following the removal of the T-tube.
