Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the clinical benefits of establishing an enteral nutrition (EN) pathway via percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography drainage (PTCD) catheterization in patients with late-stage malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ).Methods: We selected 30 patients diagnosed as having late-stage MOJ with malnutrition. A dual-lumen biliary-enteral nutrition tube was placed via PTCD along with a biliary stent implantation. Postoperative EN was provided, and we observed the time taken for tube placement, its success rate, complications, and therapeutic efficacy.Results: Tube placement was successful in all 30 patients with an average procedural time of 5.7 ± 1.4 min with no tube placement complications. Compared to preoperative measures, there was a significant improvement in postoperative jaundice reduction and nutritional indicators one month after the procedure (p < 0.05). Post-placement complications included tube perileakage in 5 cases, entero-biliary reflux in 4 cases, tube blockage in 6 cases, tube displacement in 4 cases, accidental tube removal in 3 cases, and tube replacement due to degradation in 8 cases, with tube retention time ranging from 42 to 314 days, averaging 124.7 ± 37.5 days. All patients achieved the parameters for effective home-based enteral nutrition with a noticeable improvement in their quality of life.Conclusion: In this study, we found that the technique of establishing an EN pathway via PTCD catheterization was minimally invasive, safe, and effective; the tube was easy to maintain; and patient compliance was high. It is, thus, suitable for long-term tube retention in patients with late-stage MOJ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic head cancer accompanied by obstructive jaundice is a common clinical situation. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) on clinical outcomes in patients with severe obstructive jaundice. METHODS Patients with a bilirubin level of ≥250 μmol/L at diagnosis who underwent PBD were included. The primary endpoints and secondary endpoints were the postoperative severe complications rates. Secondary endpoints were the degree of improvement in general condition, predictors of severe postoperative complications, and the impact of PBD on patients with bilirubin levels >300 μmol/L. RESULTS In total, 289 patients were included, and 188 patients (65.1%) underwent PBD. The patients who met the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification II-III stages decreased from 119 to 100 ( P = 0.047) after PBD. The overall severe complications were significantly more frequent in the direct surgery (DS) group than in the PBD group (34.7% vs. 22.9%, P = 0.031), especially the postoperative hemorrhage (6/43 [14.0%] vs. 9/35 [25.7%], P = 0.038) and intra-abdominal infection (6/43 [14.0%] vs. 10/35 [28.6%], P = 0.018). The ASA classifications II-III (odds ratio [OR]=2.89, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.38-4.31), P = 0.01) and DS (OR = 3.65, 95% CI: 1.45-7.08; P = 0.003) were independently associated with severe postoperative complications. The occurrence rate of severe postoperative complications in patients with a bilirubin level >300 μmol/L who underwent PBD was significantly lower than in patients who underwent DS (25.6% vs. 40.6%, P = 0.028), but the benefit of PBD was not observed in patients who had a bilirubin level between 250 and 300 μmol/L. CONCLUSION PBD is useful in reducing severe postoperative complications, especially in patients with bilirubin levels >300 μmol/L.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obstructive jaundice is the most common symptom of malignant diseases of the extrahepatic biliary system and necessitates either non-operative or operative biliary bypass. Because of percutaneous and endoscopic approaches, the use of palliative surgical procedures has decreased in recent years. However, in resource-limited situations, open biliary bypasses remain a viable option. This study aimed to identify factors associated with adverse perioperative outcomes following open biliary bypass. METHODS From June 2022 to May 2023, 69 patients underwent open biliary bypass for malignant biliary obstruction. Postoperative morbidity and mortality within 30 days of surgery were assessed. A Kaplan-Meier was used for categorical variables, and a log-rank test was used to determine the statistically significant difference between variables. A Cox regression analysis was conducted to identify factors associated to time to develop complications. RESULTS The hazard of developing complications among those with preoperative cholangitis was 2.49 times higher than those without preoperative cholangitis (HR 2.49, 95% CI [1.06, 5.84]). For every hour increment in the length of surgery, the hazard of getting complications increased by 2.47 times (HR 2.47, 95% CI [1.28, 4.77]). As serum bilirubin increased by 1 mg/dl, the hazard of developing complications increased by 14% (HR 1.14, 95% CI [1.03, 1.17]). CONCLUSION Patients who had long operation times, preoperative cholangitis, and elevated total bilirubin levels are at increased risk for poor perioperative outcomes. Clinicians may use these results to optimize these patients to decrease their elevated risk of serious morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical application value of a novel magnetic navigation ultrasound (MNU) combined with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) dual-guided percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTCD) through the right hepatic duct for the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice. Methods: Randomized controlled trial. The clinical data of 64 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice requiring PTCD through the right hepatic duct at the Hepatobiliary Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University (Jiangsu Province People's Hospital) from December 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The MNU group (n=32) underwent puncture guided by a novel domestic MNU combined with DSA, and the control group (n=32) underwent puncture guided by traditional DSA. The operation time, number of punctures, X-ray dose after biliary stenting as shown by DSA, patients' tolerance of the operation, success rate of the operation, pre- and post-operative total bilirubin, and incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results: The operation time of the MNU group was significantly shorter than that of the control group [(17.8±7.3) vs. (31.6±9.9) min, t=-6.35,P=0.001]; the number of punctures in the MNU group was significantly lower [(1.7±0.6) vs. (6.3±3.9) times, t=-6.59, P=0.001]; and the X-ray dose after biliary stenting as shown by DSA in the MNU group was lower than that in the control group [(132±88) vs. (746±187) mGy, t=-16.81,P<0.001]; Five patients in the control group were unable to tolerate the operation, and two stopped the operation, however all patients in the MNU group could tolerate the operation, and all completed the operation, with a success rate of 100% (32/32) in the MNU group compared to 93.8%(30/32) in the control group; the common complications of PTCD were biliary bleeding and infection, and the incidence of biliary bleeding (25.0%, 8/32) and infection (18.8%, 6/32) in the MNU group was significantly lower than that in the control group, 53.1% (17/32) and 28.1% (9/32), respectively. Conclusion: Magnetic navigation ultrasound combined with DSA dual-guided PTCD through the right biliary system for the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice is safe and feasible.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To improve the outcomes in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice using intraluminal stenting. MATERIAL AND METHODS The present study included 62 patients with clinical symptoms of malignant obstructive jaundice. In the main group, we performed biliary stenting with self-expanding multi-perforated stents (Hanarostent Multi-hole Biliary). Microscopic perforations of these stents prevent migration and reduce the risk of blocking the cystic and main pancreatic ducts. In the control group, stenting was performed with fully and partially covered self-expanding stents. RESULTS Lower incidence of obstructive cholecystitis and acute pancreatitis in the main group was associated with multiperforated stents reducing the risk of blocking the main pancreatic and cystic ducts. CONCLUSION In our study, multiperforated stents excluded migration and reduced the incidence of complications (acute cholecystitis from 11.5 to 3.8%, acute pancreatitis from 15.3 to 7.7%).

Abstract
Biliary metal stent implantation is an effective treatment for malignant obstructive jaundice. But it's well known that stents put in for a long time can become occluded and cause jaundice and cholangitis. At this time, endoscopic intervention is usually required to replace the stent or re-insert the stent. Re-cannulation for metal stent occlusion is challenging because the guide wire may pass through the side holes of the uncovered metal stents, resulting in prolonged surgical time and exposure to radiation. Here we present a small tip that may help endoscopists complete the re-cannulation of an uncovered metal stent in a very short time.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endoscopic transpapillary approach by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the established technique for preoperative biliary drainage (PBD). Recently, endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has been reported to be a useful alternative technique after ERCP fail. However, the optimal strategy remain controversial. AREA COVERED This review summarizes the literature on EUS-BD techniques for PBD with a literature search using PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials database between 2000 and 2023 using keywords for 'preoperative biliary drainage' and all types of EUS-BD techniques. EXPERT OPINION As there is no consensus on the optimal EUS-BD technique for PBD, selection of the EUS-BD approach depends on the patient's condition, the biliary obstruction site, the anastomosis after surgical intervention, and the preference of the endoscopist. However, we consider that EUS-HGS using a dedicated plastic stent may have some advantages in the adverse impact of surgical procedure because the location where the fistula is created by EUS-HGS is away from the site of the surgical procedure. Although there remain many issues that require further investigation, EUS-BD can be a feasible and safe alternative method of PBD for malignant biliary obstruction after ERCP fail.

Abstract
Liver failure in patients with obstructive jaundice is a significant contributor to mortality within this patient cohort. The exact mechanism and triggers of this occurrence are yet to be fully understood. With this in mind, our study aimed to assess the correlation between the urinary 6 β-OHC/C ratio and various biochemical parameters of liver function. Furthermore, we conducted genotyping of CYP3A4*22 (rs35599367), CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) polymorphic markers to investigate the potential effects of their variants on the probability of liver failure in obstructive jaundice. Our study included 75 patients diagnosed with severe obstructive jaundice. All test subjects underwent functional liver tests, and control blood tests were administered on the seventh day following biliary decompression. Patients were categorized into two groups: group 1 - patients without liver failure (n = 60) and group 2 - patients with liver failure (n = 15). Laboratory indexes such as 6 β -OHC concentration and 6 β- OHC/cortisol ratio can serve as significant predictors of liver failure in patients with moderate and severe degree obstructive jaundice after biliary decompression. Based on the study of "wild" and polymorphic variants of CYP3A4*22 (CC and CT) and polymorphism of CYP3A5*3A6986G (GG, GA, AA), it was discovered that liver failure in the CYP3A4*22 variant may be associated with the CC genotype, and in the CYP3A5*3 variant - with the GA genotype. Hence, the determination of 6β- OHC concentration and 6β- OHC/C ratio, as well as the analysis of polymorphic and "wild" variants of CYP3A4*22 (CC and CT) and CYP3A5*3 polymorphism A6986G (GG, GA, AA), may play a crucial role in predicting liver failure in patients with obstructive jaundice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with obstruction jaundice are at a high risk of hypotension and need high volume of fluids and a high dose of catecholamine to maintain organ perfusion during operation procedure. All these likely contribute to high perioperative morbidity and mortality. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of methylene blue on the hemodynamics in patients undergoing surgeries associated with obstructive jaundice. DESIGN A prospective, randomized, and controlled clinical study. SETTING The enrolled patients randomly received 2 mg/kg of methylene blue in saline or saline (50 ml) before anesthesia induction. The primary outcome was the frequency and dose of noradrenaline administration to maintain mean arterial blood pressure over 65 mmHg or > 80% of baseline, and systemic vascular resistance (SVR) over 800 dyne/s/cm5 during operation. The secondary outcomes were liver and kidney functions, and ICU stay. PATIENTS Seventy patients were enrolled in the study and randomly assigned to receive either methylene blue or control (n = 35/group). RESULTS Fewer patients received noradrenaline in the methylene blue group when compared with the control group (13/35 vs 23/35, P = 0.017), and the noradrenaline dose administrated during operation was reduced in the methylene blue group when compared with the control group (0.32 ± 0.57 mg vs 1.787 ± 3.51 mg, P = 0.018). The blood level of creatinine, glutamic oxalacetic transaminase, and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase after the operation was reduced in the methylene blue group when compared with the control group. CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic administration of methylene blue before operation associated with obstructive jaundice improves hemodynamic stability and short-term prognosis. QUESTION Methylene blue use prevented refractory hypotension during cardiac surgery, sepsis, or anaphylactic shock. It is still unknown that methylene blue on the vascular hypo-tone associated with obstructive jaundice. FINDINGS Prophylactic administration with methylene blue improved peri-operative hemodynamic stability, and hepatic and kidney function on the patients with obstructive jaundice. MEANINGS Methylene blue is a promising and recommended drug for the patients undergoing the surgeries of relief obstructive jaundice during peri-operation management.

Abstract
Indications for endoscopic placement of endoluminal and transluminal stents have greatly expanded over time. Endoscopic stent placement is now a well-established approach for the treatment of benign and malignant biliary and pancreatic diseases (ie, obstructive jaundice, intra-abdominal fluid collections, chronic pancreatitis etc.). Ongoing refinement of technical approaches and development of novel stents is increasing the applicability and success of pancreatico-biliary stenting. In this review, we discuss the important developments in the field of pancreatico-biliary stenting, with a specific focus on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic ultrasound-associated developments.

Abstract
Introduction. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is associated with poor prognosis and 98% loss-of-life expectancy. 80% of patients with PDA are unfit for radical surgery. In those cases, emphasis is set on management of cancer-related symptoms, among which obstructive jaundice is most common. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) emerges as a valid alternative to the well-accepted methods for treatment of biliary obstruction. Patient Selection. Five consecutive patients with unresectable pancreatic malignancy, were subjected to EUS-BD, particularly EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS). Ethics. Oral and written informed consent was obtained in all cases prior procedure. Technique. EUS-guided puncture of the common bile duct was performed, followed by advancement of a guidewire to the intrahepatic bile ducts. After dilation of the fistulous tract with a cystotome, a fully covered self-expandable metal stent was inserted below the hepatic confluence and extending at least 3 cm in the duodenum. Technical and clinical success was achieved in four patients without adverse events. In one patient procedure failed due to dislocation of the guidewire, with consequent biliary leakage requiring urgent surgery. Recovery was uneventful with no further clinical sequelae and there was no mortality associated with procedure. Discussion. Introduced in 2001, EUS-guided biliary drainage has become an accepted option for treatment of obstructive jaundice. According to recent guidelines published by European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) in 2022, EUS-CDS is a preferred modality to percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) and surgery in patients with failed ERCP, with comparable efficiency and better safety profile, which is supported by our experience with the procedure. Conclusions. Our case series suggests that EUS-CDS is an excellent option for palliative management of malignant distal biliary obstruction, emphasizes on the importance of adequate technique and experience for the technical success, and urges the need for future research on establishing the best choice for guidewire and dilation device.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of minimally invasive technologies of lithotripsy and hydraulic antegrade lithoextraction in complex treatment of choledocholithiasis. MATERIAL AND METHODS In the main group, 74 patients with choledocholithiasis underwent complex treatment with minimally invasive lithotripsy and hydraulic antegrade lithoextraction. In the control group, 177 patients with choledocholithiasis complicated by obstructive jaundice underwent complex treatment without minimally invasive lithotripsy and hydraulic antegrade lithoextraction. RESULTS Both groups were characterized by significant decrease of serum bilirubin, markers of cytolysis and cholestasis with regression of clinical manifestations of obstructive jaundice. At the same time, early and delayed postoperative complications were significantly more common in the control group. Most of these complications accounted for interventions through laparotomy such as external drainage of the common bile duct and hepaticojejunostomy. There were no similar procedures in the main group due to the use of minimally invasive technologies of lithotripsy and antegrade hydraulic lithoextraction. CONCLUSION Minimally invasive lithotripsy and antegrade hydraulic lithoextraction are safe alternatives to traditional methods of lithoextraction and can be recommended in case of ineffective laparoscopic and retrograde endoscopic lithoextraction.

Abstract
Hepatic artery aneurysms (HAA) are rare (20% of all visceral arteries). Most often, HAAs are asymptomatic and detected at autopsy. However, their ruptures and/or bleeding following pressure ulcers in visceral gastrointestinal organs are a significant clinical and diagnostic problem. We present 2 patients with obstructive jaundice and hemobilia. Diagnostics revealed aneurysm of the right hepatic artery with arterio-biliary fistula. Life-threatening hemobilia is a consequence of HAA rupture into biliary system. Endovascular approach is preferable for HAA without clinical manifestations. Awareness of this disease is important for early detection and active surgical intervention before possible complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To improve treatment outcomes in patients with Klatskin tumor and obstructive jaundice by using of endoscopic bilioduodenal stenting. MATERIAL AND METHODS There were 1904 transpapillary interventions between August 2017 and February 2022. Endoscopic bilioduodenal stenting was performed in 250 patients including 25 (10%) ones with Klatskin tumor. RESULTS Bilioduodenal plastic and self-expanding stents were installed in 19 (76%) and 6 (24%) patients, respectively. In Klatskin tumor type I, 11 patients (44%) underwent bilioduodenal stenting of common hepatic duct with plastic stent; 5 (20%) patients with Klatskin tumor type II received self-expanding stents. In case of tumor type IIIA, 3 (12%) patients underwent stenting of the right lobar duct with plastic stent. Four (16%) patients with Klatskin tumor type III B underwent stenting of the left lobar duct. Two 2 (8%) patients with Klatskin tumor type IV underwent bilateral bilioduodenal stenting with plastic and bifurcation self-expanding stents. Peroral cholangioscopy using the SpyGlass DS system was performed in 4 (16%) patients. No intraoperative complications were identified. One (4%) patient developed gastrointestinal bleeding in 2 postoperative days after retrograde intervention that did not require surgery. Moreover, 1 (4%) patient with distal dislocation of plastic bilioduodenal stent required redo bilioduodenal stenting. Three (12%) patients died from multiple organ failure despite adequate biliary decompression, and 22 (88%) patients were discharged in 8±5 days after retrograde intervention. CONCLUSION Bilioduodenal stenting as minimally invasive and physiological method was highly effective for obstructive jaundice in patients with Klatskin tumor. Peroral cholangioscopy using the SpyGlass system provides effective and safe direct visualization of the biliary tract, as well as biopsy for morphological verification and prescription of chemotherapy in patients with intraductal growth of tumor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is still a lack of clarity about the benefits of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD), which was introduced to improve the perioperative outcome in patients with obstructive jaundice caused by a periampullary tumour. The aim of this study was to determine whether operative and postoperative complications increase in patients undergoing PBD during pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective examination was made of patients who underwent PBD for a periampullary tumour in our hospital between 2006 and 2014. From these, the patients were identified who had PBD with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and these patients were further separated into two groups, as one group of patients with plastic stents and the other group of patients with metallic stents. Patients with pancreas head cancer were also separated into two groups as those who were and were not applied with PBD. The preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative characteristics of the patients were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 123 patients were retrospectively reviewed. Biliary stent placement with PBD was applied to 48 patients, of whom 31 had metallic stents and 17 had plastic stents. In general, there was no difference between the PBD and the non-PBD groups in respect of the preoperative, operative and postoperative results. When patients with tumour of the pancreas head only were examined, the rate of wound infection was higher in the PBD group and there was no difference in the other parameters. Moreover, there was no difference between the patients with metallic stents and those with plastic stents in respect of outcomes. CONCLUSIONS With the exception of wound site infection, although no difference was observed between the PBD and the non-PBD groups based on intraoperative and postoperative complications, because of the distinctive inherent complications of PBD it is essential to manage such patients properly and to carefully select the patients for the PBD procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines recommend against preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) in patients with pancreatic head cancer if bilirubin levels are <250 μmol/l. However, patients with higher bilirubin levels undergo PBD, despite the lack of supporting evidence. This study aims to evaluate outcomes in patients with a bilirubin level ≥250 and < 250. METHODS Patients were identified from databases of 3 centers. Outcomes were compared in patients with a bilirubin level ≥250 versus <250 both at the time of diagnosis and directly prior to surgery. RESULTS 244 patients were included. PBD was performed in 64% (123/191) with bilirubin <250 at diagnosis and 91% (48/53) with bilirubin ≥250. PBD technical success (83% vs. 81%, p = 0.80) and PBD related complications (33% vs. 29%, p = 0.60) did not differ between these groups. Analyzing bilirubin levels ≥250 versus <250 directly prior to surgery, no differences in severe postoperative complications and mortality were found. CONCLUSIONS In patients with a pancreatic head cancer, PBD technical success and complications, and severe postoperative complications did not differ between patients with a bilirubin level ≥250 and < 250. Our study does not support a different approach regarding PBD in patients with severe jaundice.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy, safety and prognostic factors of percutaneous biliary stent combined with iodine-125 seed chain brachytherapy (radiotherapy) in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice. Methods: Data of 107 cases with malignant obstructive jaundice treated with percutaneous biliary stent implantation from January 2017 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 58 cases received biliary stent combined with iodne-125 seed chain brachytherapy (study group), and 49 cases received biliary stent implantation (control group). The changes of bilirubin, stent patency time, complications, overall survival (OS) and prognostic factors were analyzed in both groups. Results: The incidence of complications in the study group and the control group were 17.2% and 18.3% respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.974). Serum total bilirubin levels were decreased significantly in both groups at one month after surgery (P<0.001). Postoperative stent patency time was significantly better in the study group (10.0±1.6 months) (95% CI: 8.2~12.5) than that in the control group (5.2±0.4 months) (95% CI: 4.1~6.0, P<0.001). The median OS was longer in the study group (11.2±1.8 months) (95% CI: 9.2~12.8) than that in the control group (8.0±1.1 months) (95% CI: 8.0~12.8, P<0.001). Multivariate analysis result showed that stent combined with brachytherapy (HR=0.08, 95% CI:0.04~0.15, P<0.001) and receiving further anti-tumor therapy after surgery (HR=0.27, 95% CI:0.15~0.49, P<0.001) were independent risk factors affecting the patency of biliary stents. Preoperative percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (HR=0.46, 95%CI:0.28~0.74, P=0.002), stent combined with brachytherapy (HR=0.23, 95%CI:0.14~0.39, P<0.001) and receiving further anti-tumor therapy after surgery (HR=0.37, 95%CI:0.22~0.61, P<0.001) were independent risk factors affecting OS. Conclusion: Percutaneous biliary stent combined with brachytherapy is safe and effective in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice, which can significantly prolong the patency time of biliary stent and the survival time of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Noninvasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) theoretically do not metastasize. The purpose of this study is to preoperatively distinguish invasive carcinomas associated with IPMN from noninvasive IPMN. METHODS A total of 131 patients who underwent surgical resection for IPMN were retrospectively analyzed to identify the predictors of invasive carcinoma, based on the International Association of Pancreatology Consensus Guidelines. RESULTS Of the 131 patients, 29 (22%) had invasive carcinomas and 102 (78%) had noninvasive IPMN. An enhancing mural nodule (MN) greater than or equal to 5 mm, obstructive jaundice, an abrupt change in the caliber of the pancreatic duct (PD) with distal pancreatic atrophy, and lymphadenopathy were the significant predictors of invasive carcinoma in univariate analysis. The optimal cutoff value for the size of the enhancing MN to differentiate invasive carcinoma was 13 mm. In multivariate analysis, enhancing MN greater than or equal to 13 mm, obstructive jaundice, and an abrupt change in the PD caliber were the independent predictors. When all these factors were absent, only 17% were invasive carcinomas. CONCLUSIONS Enhancing MN greater than or equal to 13 mm, obstructive jaundice, and an abrupt change in the PD caliber were predictive factors for invasive carcinoma. Systematic lymph node dissection may be omitted when a high-risk patient has none of these factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare postoperative morbidity and mortality results in patients with and without endoscopic and percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage due to obstructive jaundice caused by a periampullary tumor and to examine the effect of intervals until surgery on postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients who underwent preoperative biliary drainage (BD). METHODS Patients were divided into 3 groups according to their BD status. Group1, no biliary drainage (NBD), Group2, Endoscopic biliary drainage (EBD), Group3, Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PBD). Patients who underwent biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) were divided into 3 intervals according to the time interval between drainage and surgery: Short interval; patients undergoing surgery in 21 days and <, Medium interval; between 22-42 days, Long interval; 43 days and >. Groups and intervals were compared in terms of postoperative morbidity and mortality. RESULTS Of the 122 patients who underwent PD, 76 (62.3%) were male, and 46 (37.7%) were female. Within these patients, 47 (38.52%) had NPD, 42 (34.42%) had EBD, and 33 (27.05%) had PBD. The rate of postoperative Grade B and C fistula was higher in the groups that underwent preoperative drainage compared to the group without preoperative drainage (p = 0.007). CONCLUSION It was determined that the postoperative complication rate was lower in patients who did not undergo BD compared to patients who underwent biliary drainage. Besides, the endoscopic drainage method was observed to be associated with fewer complications than the percutaneous transhepatic drainage method.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To improve the results of treatment of obstructive jaundice by using of oral cholangioscopy. MATERIAL AND METHODS There were 321 patients with obstructive jaundice between October 2020 and November 2021. Of these, cholangioscopy (SpyGlass video system) was used in 18 patients. Patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (n=9) - malignant biliary strictures; group 2 (n=9) - choledocholithiasis with large calculi (≥1.2 cm). At admission, all patients underwent laboratory and instrumental examination. In the first group, bilioduodenal stenting with plastic stents 7 and 10 Fr in diameter, 7 to 12 cm long or self-expanding nitinol stents 0.8-1.0 cm in diameter, 6 to 10 cm long was carried out. Patients with large calculi underwent targeted laser lithotripsy under endoscopic control until formation of 1-cm fragments. These fragments were removed using a lithoextraction balloon and Dormia basket. RESULTS Cholangioscopy (SpyGlass system) was performed within 2 days after admission. In group 1, tumor tissue overgrowths were found during cholangioscopy. Five out of 9 (55.6%) patients underwent bilioduodenal stenting for adequate biliary drainage. Of these, 4 (44.5%) patients developed acute edematous pancreatitis on the first postoperative day. This complication regressed after 3-4 days under therapy. Four (44.5%) patients died from cancer-related multiple organ failure. In group 2, cholangioscopy effectively visualized the calculus and ensured its destruction by laser contact lithotripsy. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were not revealed in both groups. CONCLUSION SpyGlass system is effective and safe for diagnosis and treatment in 100% of patients with extrahepatic biliary strictures and/or large calculi.

Abstract
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) sometimes forms fistulas with other organs due to high pressure of pancreatic duct filled with huge amount of mucus. Pancreatobiliary fistula may cause obstructive jaundice due to the mucus and it is hard to manage the jaundice by endoscopic biliary stenting because of high viscosity of the bile. We report a case of IPMN with pancreatobiliary fistula managed by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided hepaticogastrostomy (HGS). The patient was 87 years old and presented with obstructive jaundice. As a transpapillary biliary stent was considered to have a risk of migration due to the absence of bile duct stenosis, a nasobiliary catheter was placed as an initial drainage. However, the catheter was frequently obstructed by mucus. The patient was intolerable for surgery because of his age. Considering the intrahepatic bile was serous, EUS-HGS was performed and jaundice improved successfully. This case study revealed that EUS-HGS might be a therapeutic option for obstructive jaundice caused by an IPMN-associated pancreatobiliary fistula.

Abstract
Surgical clip migration in the common bile duct with consecutive stone formation is a rare occurrence after laparoscopic cholecystectomy, less than 100 cases being reported so far. We report a case of a 55-year-old woman with obstructive jaundice due to bile duct stone formed around a migrated surgical clip 9 years after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The patient presented with pain in the upper abdomen and jaundice. Abdominal ultrasound diagnosed dilation of the common bile duct and intrahepatic bile ducts. The diagnosis was confirmed by computed tomography which revealed a metal clip in the distal part of the common bile duct. The patient was managed successfully by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and the surgical clip was retrieved using the Dormia basket. The exact mechanism of clip migration is not fully understood but may be explained by local inflammation and ineffective clipping. Although a rare occurrence, clip migration should not be excluded when considering the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with obstructive jaundice or cholangitis after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Minimally invasive management by ERCP is the procedure of choice for migrated clips related complications but surgical common bile duct exploration may be necessary.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the impact of the different access for percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) in terms of "Quality of Life" (QoL) in the management of malignant obstructive jaundice. METHODS In this IRB-approved study, 64 consecutive patients with malignant obstructive jaundice were prospectively randomized to the right (group A) or left access (group B) for PTBD between February 2017 and December 2018. In order to demonstrate differences in terms of QoL between these groups, patients were asked to complete the "EORTC QLQ-BIL21" questionnaire the week after the treatment. Continuous variables were summarized by mean ± SD and compared using a Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainages were performed through right access in 31 cases and 33 cases through left access. Technical success was achieved in all cases (100%). During 1 week's follow-up, there was a significant difference between group A and B in terms of pain (p < 0.001). Group A showed higher intercostal pain and respiratory difficulties compared to group B. Moreover, patients of group A showed a higher level of tiredness, anxiety, and more difficult tubes drainage and bags management than group B patients. CONCLUSION In our experience, the use of the questionnaires showed the right access is associated with intercostal pain and respiratory difficulties. Left access for PTBD provides a better Quality of Life for patients who underwent PTBD as palliative treatment for the management of malignant obstructive jaundice and could be considered as the approach of choice in case of distal obstruction.

Abstract
A 24-year-old man born in Guizhou province was diagnosed with obstructive jaundice and bile duct stones in 2013. Four living trematodes were found during laparotomy and cholecystectomy. Based on the morphology and molecular genetics analysis of internal transcribed spacer and pcox1 genes of the flatworm specimens, the trematodes from the patient were confirmed to be Fasciola hepatica. This report provided the clinical and molecular diagnosis information on human fascioliasis, which is an emerging sanitary problem still ignored in China. Human fascioliasis constantly occurs due to climatic changes and frequency of human travel. Therefore, it deserves more attention from physicians working in both developing and developed countries.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Relieving obstructive jaundice in inoperable pancreato-biliary cancers improves quality of life and permits chemotherapy. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography with drainage and/or stenting relieves jaundice but can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) in malignant biliary obstruction was therefore examined in a national cohort to establish risk factors for poor outcomes. METHODS Retrospective study of adult patients undergoing PTBD for palliation of pancreato-biliary cancer in England between 2001 and 2014 identified from Hospital Episode Statistics. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to examine associations with mortality and the need for a repeat PTBD within 2 months. RESULTS 16 822 patients analysed (median age 72 (range 19-104) years, 50.3% men). 58% pancreatic and 30% biliary tract cancer. In-hospital and 30-day mortality were 15.3% (95% CI 14.7% to 15.9%) and 23.1% (22.4%-23.8%), respectively. 20.2% suffered a coded complication within 3 months. Factors associated with 30-day mortality: age (≥81 years OR 2.68 (95% CI 2.37 to 3.03), p<0.001), increasing comorbidity (Charlson score 20+, 3.10 (2.64-3.65), p<0.001), pre-existing renal dysfunction (2.37 (2.12-2.65), p<0.001) and non-pancreatic cancer (unspecified biliary tract 1.28 (1.08-1.52), p=0.004). Women had lower mortality (0.91 (0.84-0.98), p=0.011), as did patients undergoing PTBD in a 'higher volume' provider (84-180 PTBDs per year 0.68 (0.58-0.79), p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing PTBD for the palliation of malignant biliary obstruction, 30-day mortality was high at 23.1%. Mortality was higher in older patients, men, those with increasing comorbidity, a cancer site other than pancreas and at 'lower-volume' PTBD providers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: Is to determine the optimum duration of percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage depending on the duration of obstructive jaundice and the baseline total bilirubin level in patients with benign and malignant common bile duct diseases complicated by obstructive jaundice. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: The experience of applying percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage was combined for 88 patients with common bile duct diseases complicated by obstructive jaundice. The patients were divided into three groups: the Group 1 included 15 patients (17.1%) with benign common bile duct diseases, the Group 2 included 11 patients (12.5%) with resectable cholangiocarcinomas, and the Group 3 included 62 patients (70.4%) with unresectable cholangiocarcinomas. To determine optimal terms of biliary decompression using percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage, the Poisson process was applied, and, to be more precise, the quasi-Poisson distribution. RESULTS Results: It was found that the reduction of total bilirubin was the fastest in Group 3 patients. It took these patients an average of 7-8 days to reduce total bilirubin to 50 μmole/l. In Group 1 patients, the process is somewhat slower. The duration of biliary decompression in this category of patients averages 10-12 days. For Group 2 patients, biliary decompression requires at least 12 days. CONCLUSION Conclusions: Using the Poisson process, or, to be more precise, the quasi-Poisson distribution, we managed to determine the optimum duration of biliary decompression using percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage depending on the obstructive jaundice duration and the baseline total serum bilirubin.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to investigate the role of iodine-125 seed implantation, guided by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and/or percutanous ultrasound, in patients with unresectable pancreatic carcinoma after relief of obstructive jaundice using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 101 patients with obstructive jaundice due to unresectable pancreatic carcinoma were enrolled between January 2010 and December 2017 in this retrospective study. Of these patients, 50 underwent implantation of iodine-125 seeds under EUS and/or percutaneous ultrasound guidance after receiving a stent via ERCP (treatment group), and 51 received a stent via ERCP without undergoing seed implantation (control group). The clinical data and therapeutic outcomes of these patients were analyzed. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the treatment group obtained significant relief of abdominal pain at the 1-week, 1-month, and 3-month followup (p < 0.05), with a significantly lower visual analog scale pain score (p < 0.05). The treatment group obtained a longer median survival (8.8 vs. 6.5 months, p = 0.02), longer median duration of stent patency (10.8 ± 1.4 vs. 6.9 ± 0.8 months, p = 0.02), and prolonged average time to gastric outlet obstruction (6.8 ± 1.6 vs. 5.3 ± 1.3 months, p = 0.02). Differences between liver function and appetite for the two groups were not significant (p > 0.05 and p = 0.59, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Iodine-125 seed implantation after relief of obstructive jaundice via ERCP prolongs survival, biliary stent patency, and time to gastric outlet obstruction and improves patient quality of life by relieving pancreatic pain in patients with unresectable pancreatic carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive jaundice may lead to ominous complications and requires complex diagnostic evaluations and therapies that are not widely available. OBJECTIVE To analyze the epidemiological profile, referral routes and diagnostic accuracy at admittance of cases of acute cholangitis among patients with obstructive jaundice treated at a referral unit. DESIGN AND SETTING Cross-sectional study at a tertiary-level university hospital. METHODS Patients with obstructive jaundice who were treated by means of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, resection and/or surgical biliary drainage were evaluated. The main variables analyzed were epidemiological data, referral route, bilirubin levels and time elapsed between symptom onset and admittance and diagnosing of acute cholangitis at the referral unit. The accuracy of the clinical diagnosis of acute cholangitis was compared with a retrospective analysis on the medical records in accordance with the Tokyo criteria. RESULTS Female patients predominated (58%), with an average age of 56 years. Acute cholangitis was detected in 9.9% of the individuals; application of the Tokyo criteria showed that the real prevalence was approximately 43%. The main referral route was direct contact (31.8%) and emergency care (29.7%); routing via official referral through the public healthcare system accounted for 17.6%, and internal referral from other specialties, 20%. The direct route with unofficial referral was the most important route for cases of neoplastic etiology (P < 0.01) and was the fastest route (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS There is a deficiency in the official referral routes for patients with obstructive jaundice. The accuracy of the clinical diagnosis of acute cholangitis was poor. Wider dissemination of the Tokyo criteria is essential.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is limited published evidence on duodenal carcinoma due to its rarity. This study aimed to evaluate gastric outlet obstruction and obstructive jaundice along with pathological variables as survival factors in patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma following resection. METHODS Survival factor analysis was undertaken in patients undergoing duodenal cancer surgery from 1997 to 2015 in a single centre. RESULTS There were 57 patients of whom 18 had gastric outlet obstruction and 14 had obstructive jaundice. Fifty-three had a partial pancreatoduodenectomy and four had palliative bypass. Perioperative mortality and morbidity were 4% (2/53) and 47% (25/53) respectively in resected patients. With a median (95% confidence interval, CI) follow-up of 72 (57-86) months, median overall and recurrence-free survival was 38 months (95% CI 28-113) and 27 months (95% CI 18-83) respectively. The 1 and 3-year overall survival rates were 84% (95% CI 74-95) and 52% (95% CI 39-69) respectively. Median overall survival was 19 months in patients with gastric outlet obstruction vs 53 months in those without (p = 0.026) and 28 months in patients with obstructive jaundice vs 38 months in those without (p = 0.611). Univariate analysis revealed that tumour stage, resection margin status, pre-operative albumin status, gastric outlet obstruction and age were associated with poorer overall and recurrence-free survival but multivariate analysis confirmed only tumour stage and resection margin status to be significant. CONCLUSION Whereas gastric outlet obstruction in duodenal cancer appeared to be an important survival factor following partial pancreatoduodenectomy, multivariate analysis showed that only tumour stage and resection margin status were the key independent survival factors. Further multicentre studies are required to elucidate further characteristics of duodenal carcinoma and develop neoadjuvant/adjuvant management strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The in-hospital mortality rate in patients undergoing percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) for malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ) is high. There are few reports on the risk factors associated with hospital death after MOJ, with most of them being retrospective analyses of single factors. Therefore, this study aimed to assess pre-, intra-, and post-procedure risk factors that were independently associated with increased in-hospital mortality in MOJ patients who underwent PTBD. METHODS One-hundred fifty-five patients with MOJ who underwent initial PTBD were included in this study. A total of 25 pre-, 4 intra-, and 6 post-procedure factors potentially related to in-hospital mortality were assessed by univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS The in-hospital mortality rate was 16.8% (26/155). Of 25 pre-procedure variables analyzed, Child-Pugh classification C, creatinine level ≥6.93 μmol/L, and quality-of-life score (≤30) were found to be significant in univariate and multivariate analyses. Increased mortality was observed in patients with 2 or more risk factors, which was significantly different from patients with no risk factors or one risk factor (P < .01). None of the intra-procedure factors were important in identifying patients at risk of death. Multivariate analysis indicated post-PTBD cholangitis and unsuccessful drainage as post-procedure risk factors that correlated with in-hospital death. CONCLUSION It was identified that in-hospital mortality was associated with 3 pre-procedure and 2 post-procedure risk factors, such as the liver function classification, quality-of-life score of cancer patients, creatinine level, PTBD-associated biliary duct infection, and unsuccessful drainage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Magnetic compression anastomosis (magnamosis, MCA) has been verified safe and effective by us and others in animal bilioenteric anastomosis (BEA). The objective of the present study was to introduce clinical application of magnetic compression bilioenteric anastomosis (MC-BEA) with a unique device in series of patients. METHODS Patients with obstructive jaundice with an indication of BEA were prospectively enrolled from 2012 to 2015. After dissection of bile ducts, the mother ring and drainage tube were placed in the proximal bile duct and the purse-string suture was tightened over the drainage tube. The drainage tube was introduced into the jejunal lumen at the anastomotic site and used to guide the daughter ring to assemble with the mother ring. All the patients were routinely followed up for magnets discharge or any complications associated. RESULTS Forty-one patients were included. Thirty-four (82.9%) patients had a malignant primary disease, while seven (17.1%) had benign disease. The median time for MC-BEA was 10.5 min (interquartile range [IQR] 8.3-13.0 min). No perioperative morbidity or mortality associated with MC-BEA was observed. The median time for a patent bilioenteric anastomosis formation was 19.0 days (IQR 14.5-23.0 days), and the magnets were discharged with a median postoperative duration of 35.0 days (IQR 28.0-43.0 days). With a median follow-up of 547.5 days (range 223-1042 days), no patients had biliary fistula, while two (4.9%) developed anastomotic stricture at 4 months and 14 months after surgery, and underwent reoperation for reconstruction of BEA. CONCLUSIONS MCA is a safe, effective, and time-saving modality for biliojejunostomy.

Abstract
We herein report a patient with a history of rheumatoid arthritis treated with methotrexate, which caused methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorder and obstructive jaundice due to an enlarged lymph node. The obstructive jaundice was treated with endoscopic biliary stenting. A histopathological examination revealed features of Hodgkin's lymphoma, and chemotherapy with brentuximab vedotin was administered. Cholangiography and duodenoscopy after four rounds of chemotherapy revealed a choledochoduodenal fistula that developed in response to chemotherapy. It should be noted that, in cases of lymphoma infiltrating the gastrointestinal wall, fistulae can occur because of rapid regression due to regimens comprising monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab and brentuximab vedotin.

Abstract
RATIONALE Ultrasonography-guided gastrojejunostomy (EUS-GJ) might be a safe, innovative and minimally invasive interventional treatment for patients with gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) as an alternative to the surgical approach. To date, few cases have been reported in the literature. PATIENT CONCERNS A case of pancreatic head carcinoma with obstructive jaundice occurred in a 78-year-old man with a prior history of pancreatic head cancer. Biliary stent placement was conducted 1 year earlier. DIAGNOSES The patient was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, pulmonary infection, pyloric obstruction, and biliary stent implantation. INTERVENTIONS EUS-GJ was performed. The wire and a double-balloon catheter reached the position of stenosis, then a double mushroom head bracket was released under EUS. The position was confirmed via X-ray. OUTCOMES The symptoms of obstruction were alleviated. No recurrence of obstruction, bleeding, perforation, and other complications occurred for the following 1.5 months while he died because of whole body spread of pancreatic cancer. LESSONS EUS-GJ may be reliable and effective for patients with GOO.

Abstract
The major symptoms of advanced hepatopancreatic-biliary cancer are biliary obstruction, pain and gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). For obstructive jaundice, surgical treatment should de consider in recurrent stent complications. The role of surgery for pain relief is marginal nowadays. On the last, there is no consensus for treatment of malignant GOO. Endoscopic duodenal stents are associated with shorter length of stay and faster relief to oral intake with more recurrent symptoms. Surgical gastrojejunostomy shows better long-term results and lower re-intervention rates, but there are limited data about laparoscopic approach. We performed a systematic review of the literature, according PRISMA guidelines, to search for articles on laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy for malignant GOO treatment. We also report our personal series, from 2009 to 2017. A review of the literature suggests that there is no standardized surgical technique either standardized outcomes to report. Most of the studies are case series, so level of evidence is low. Decision-making must consider medical condition, nutritional status, quality of life and life expectancy. Evaluation of the patient and multidisciplinary expertise are required to select appropriate approach. Given the limited studies and the difficulty to perform prospective controlled trials, no study can answer all the complexities of malignant GOO and more outcome data is needed.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine outcomes and complications of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) performed via the right or left lobe and different entry levels (lobar, segmental, subsegmental, sub-subsegmental). METHODS The records of patients who underwent PTBD for obstructive jaundice from 2008 to 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine factors associated with outcomes and complications based on entry side and entry level. PTBD success was defined as a total bilirubin decrease after catheter placement. RESULTS The data of 446 patients (mean age 68.4 years) were included. Multivariate logistic regression revealed a decrease of bilirubin level was associated with left lobe (vs. right) entry [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 2.657, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.160, 6.087], external drainage (aOR = 2.908, 95% CI 1.226, 6.897), and liver volume undrained <50% (aOR = 2.623, 95% CI 1.045, 6.581). PTBD success was increased with left lobe entry (aOR = 1.853, 95% CI 1.167, 2.940) and associated with entry level (subsegmental vs. lobar, aOR = 2.992, 95% CI 1.258, 7.114; sub-subsegmental vs. lobar, aOR = 3.711, 95% CI 1.383, 9.956). Complications were significantly decreased with left lobe entry (aOR = 0.450, 95% CI 0.263, 0.769) and associated with entry level (segmental vs. lobar, aOR = 0.359, 95% CI 0.148, 0.873; subsegmental vs. lobar, aOR = 0.248, 95% CI 0.10, 0.615; sub-subsegmental vs. lobar, aOR = 0.129, 95% CI 0.041, 0.411). CONCLUSIONS The success and complications of PTBD vary with entry side and level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although commonly used procedure, Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy (RYHJ) remains to be complicated, time consuming, and has a relatively poor prognosis. We designed the magnetic compressive anastomats (MCAs) to perform RYHJ more efficiently and safely. MATERIALS AND METHODS 36 dogs were divided into two groups randomly. After obstructive jaundice model construction, RYHJ was performed with MCAs in study group or by hand-sewn in control group. Both groups were followed for 1, 3, and 6 months after RYHJ. The liver function and postoperative complications were recorded throughout the follow-up. At the end of each time point, dogs were sent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and sacrificed. Anastomotic samples were taken for anastomotic narrowing rate calculation, histological analyses, tensile strength testing, and hydroxyproline content testing. RESULTS The anastomotic construction times were 44.20 ± 23.02 min in study group, compared of 60.53 ± 11.89 min in control group (p < 0.05). The liver function recovered gradually after RYHJ in both groups (p > 0.05). All anastomats were expelled out of the body in 8.81 ± 2.01 days. The gross incidence of morbidity and mortality was 33.3% (6/18) and 16.7% (3/18) in study group compared with 38.9% (7/18) and 22.2% (4/18) in control group (p > 0.05), and there is no single case of anastomotic-specific complications happened in study group. The narrowing rates of anastomosis were 14.6, 18.5, and 18.7% in study group compared with 35.4, 36.9, and 34% in control group at 1st, 3rd, and 6th month after RYHJ (p < 0.05). In study group, preciser alignment of tissue layers and milder inflammatory reaction contributed to the fast and better wound healing process. CONCLUSION Perform RYHJ with MCAs is safer, more efficient than by hand-sewn method in obstructive jaundice dog models.

Abstract
An 85-year-old woman underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for obstructive jaundice. Selective bile duct cannulation was unsuccessful because of periampullary diverticula (PAD). A pancreatic spontaneous dislodgement stent (PSDS) (5F diameter, 3 cm, straight type) was inserted to prevent post-ERCP pancreatitis. Three days after ERCP, she complained of abdominal pain, and computed tomography revealed retroperitoneal perforation because of PSDS migration to the PAD. If the papillary orifice is observed at the diverticular rim or in the diverticula, a pigtailed PSDS on the duodenal side or flanged stent on the pancreatic ductal side should be inserted in order to prevent this rare adverse event.

Abstract
Preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) is often performed in patients with jaundice with the presumption that it will decrease the risk of postoperative complications. PBD carries its own risk of complications and, therefore, has been controversial. Multiple randomized controlled trials and metaanalyses have shown that PBD has significantly increased overall complications compared with surgery alone. As such, the routine application of PBD should be avoided except in a subset of clinical situations. This is discussed in detail in this article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive jaundice is a common problem in daily clinical practice. Understanding completely the pathophysiological changes in obstructive jaundice remains a challenge for planning current and future management. DATA SOURCES A PubMed was searched for relevant articles published up to August 2016. The effect of obstructive jaundice on proinflammatory cytokines, coagulation status, hemodynamics and organ functions were evaluated. RESULTS The effects of obstructive jaundice included biliary tree, the hepatic cell and liver function as well as systemic complications. The lack of bile in the gut, the disruption of the intestinal mucosal barrier, the increased absorption of endotoxin and the subsequent endotoxemia cause proinflammatory cytokine production (TNF-α, IL-6). Bilirubin induces systemic inflammatory response syndrome which may lead to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. The principal clinical manifestations include hemodynamic instability and acute renal failure, cardiovascular suppression, immune compromise, coagulation disorders, nutritional impairment, and wound healing defect. The proper management includes full replacement of water and electrolyte deficiency, prophylactic antibiotics, lactulose, vitamin K and fresh frozen plasma, albumin and dopamine. The preoperative biliary drainage has not been indicated in overall, but only in a few selected cases. CONCLUSION The perioperative management is an essential measure in improving the outcome after the appropriate surgical operation in jaundiced patients especially those with malignancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some 20-40% of the periampullary carcinoma is irresectable at the time of diagnosis. Biliary stenting and surgical bypass are commonly used palliative procedure. There is no consensus favouring one procedure over the other. This study compares the both procedures. METHODS This Randomized Controlled Trial included 47 patients who presented with diagnosis of obstructive jaundice due to periampullary carcinoma to the Department of Surgery, Federal General Hospital, Islamabad from July 2012 to December 2014. RESULTS Out of total 47 patients 27 (57.44%) were males and 20 (42.55%) were females. Group-A included 25 (53.19%) patients while group-B included 22 (46.81%) patients. The mean age in both groups was 62.34 years (SD=±5.01). All patients died during the study. The mean survival time for the stent patients was 7.5 months while the mean survival time for surgical bypass patients was 8.3 months. The jaundice was relived in all surgical (22, 100%) of the patients as compared to (18, 72%) of the patients in stent group. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that surgical bypass as a primary procedure in selected patients provided better jaundice relieve as compared to biliary stenting..

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Introduction: The development of minimally invasive techniques allowed to expand the indications and possibility of performing surgeries in patients of elderly and old age with obstructive jaundice (OJ). However, the criteria for the selection of minimally invasive and open surgeries in patients with OJ remain undefined. The aim: To study the efficacy of single or multiple-stage methods of biliary decompression for treatment of OJ in patients of older age groups. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: We have analyzed the results of surgical treatment in 140 patients with OJ of benign origin. The patients were divided in two groups: group I (n = 70) where two-stage minimally invasive methods were used and group II (n = 70) where single-stage minimally invasive and open surgeries were used. The average age was 75 ± 6.0 years. The average duration of OJ was 22 ± 3.7 days. RESULTS Results: The patients in group I were subjected to two-stage minimally invasive surgeries in 70 (50.0%) cases. The patients in group II were subjected to single-stage minimally invasive surgeries in 16 (11.4%) cases and to open surgeries in 54 (38.6%) cases. The average duration of hospital stay in patients of group I made 7.1 ± 1.5 days, and 11.2 ± 1.2 days in patients of group II. The patients of group I experienced complications in 5 (7.1%) cases and patients of group II experienced complications in 10 (14.3%) cases. 1 (1.4%) patient died. CONCLUSION Conclusions: Stepwise approach to minimally invasive surgeries in patients of elderly and old age with bile duct obstructions allows to reduce the frequency of postoperative complications down to 7.2% (p< 0.05). Single-stage correction is recommended for patients with hyperbilirubinemia of less than 100 mcmol/l and the duration of OJ of less than 14 days, with presence of compensated or subcompensated co-occurring pathology as well as in the absence of purulent cholangitis and biliary pancreatitis.

Abstract
This study explored the effect of the implant position of stents across the Vater's ampulla on treatment outcomes in patients with lower bile duct obstruction.In the retrospective study, 41 patients with malignant obstruction of the lower bile duct and obstructive jaundice received percutaneous transhepatic biliary placement of bare-metal stents. Basic demographic data on patients, such as sex, age, and primary diseases, and follow-up data, including postoperative complications and jaundice-free survival, were recorded. The follow-up data on patients with an involved ampulla, patients with an uninvolved ampulla, patients with a stent across the ampulla, and patients with a stent at a site other than the ampulla were compared. Furthermore, prognostic factors for jaundice- free survival were investigated using Cox proportional hazards regression analysis.Among the 41 patients, 38 patients experienced subsiding of jaundice, whereas 3 cases had unsuccessful stent patency. Whether or not the ampulla was involved did not influence the incidence rates of postoperative complications and the jaundice-free survival time. Notably, when stents were placed across the ampulla, the jaundice-free survival time was significantly longer than when stents were placed at sites other than across the ampulla (P < .05). Furthermore, placement of the stent across the ampulla or at other sites was an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio = 0.154, 95% confidence interval 0.042-0.560, P = .005) for jaundice-free survival of patients.The current study revealed that the implant position of a stent across the ampulla resulted in maintenance of stent patency and prolongation of the jaundice-free survival time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Obstructive jaundice caused by metastatic disease leads to deterioration of general condition and short survival time. Successful decompression can offer symptom control and enable further treatment with chemotherapy, which can improve survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety-nine percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) procedures with metallic stent placement were performed in 93 patients between 2007 and 2013. Files were retrospectively studied and a review of patients' demographics, clinical and laboratory parameters, treatment and survival was performed. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis with log-rank test was done in function of bilirubin level, tumor type and treatment with chemotherapy. RESULTS Hyperbilirubinemia resolved in 73% of procedures. Median survival time after the procedure was 48 (95%CI 34.8 - 61.1) days. If additional chemotherapy was possible, a median survival of 170 (95%CI 88.5 - 251.4) days was noted versus 32 (95%CI 22.4 - 41.5) days without chemotherapy (p < 0.01). Survival rates greatly differed between primary tumor type, with the largest benefit of PTC in colorectal cancer. In 35 % of the procedures minor or more severe complications were noted. The 30-day mortality was 33%, with 3 procedure related deaths. CONCLUSION PTC with metallic stenting can bring symptom relief and enable further treatment with chemotherapy, which can lead to a longer survival time, especially in colorectal cancer. However, in patients in whom palliative stenting failed to resolve the hyperbilirubinemia survival is short.

Abstract
We aimed to assess the therapeutic effect of reimplantation of biliary metal stents by percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD) in patients with recurrent malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ). Furthermore, we explored the prognostic value of inflammation-based markers in these patients.We reviewed 33 cases of recurrent MOJ after implantation of biliary metal stents by PTCD, all of which underwent reimplantation of stents under digital subtraction angiography guidance. Levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and bilirubin were compared between before and after reimplantation (1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively). Preoperative clinical data were collected to calculate the inflammation-based markers, including systemic immune-inflammation index (SII, neutrophil × platelets/ lymphocyte), platelets-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR). The primary outcome was overall survival (OS), which was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis.The levels of ALT, AST, total bilirubin, and direct bilirubin significantly reduced after the reimplantation operation. During a median follow-up time of 10 months, 18 (54.5%) patients died. Gender, albumin, SII, PLR, NLR, and MLR were found to be associated with OS by the log-rank test and univariate analysis. Multivariate Cox analysis identified elevated levels of SII and PLR as significant factors for predicting poor OS.Reimplantation is clinically feasible in patients with recurrent MOJ after implantation of biliary metal stents. SII and PLR are independent, useful inflammation-based prognostic models for predicting outcomes in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients requiring surgical resection for malignant biliary jaundice, it is unclear if preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) would improve mortality and morbidity by restoration of biliary flow prior to operation. This is a meta-analysis to pool the evidence and assess the utility of PBD in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice. The primary outcome is comparing mortality outcomes in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice undergoing direct surgery (DS) versus PBD. The secondary outcomes include major adverse events and length of hospital stay in both the groups. METHODS Studies using PBD in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice were included in this study. For the data collection and extraction, articles were searched in MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials & Database of Systematic Reviews, etc. Pooled proportions were calculated using both Mantel-Haenszel method (fixed effects model) and DerSimonian-Laird method (random effects model). RESULTS Initial search identified 2230 reference articles, of which 204 were selected and reviewed. Twenty-six studies (N = 3532) for PBD in malignant obstructive jaundice which met the inclusion criteria were included in this analysis. The odds ratio for mortality in PBD group versus DS group was 0.96 (95 % CI = 0.71 to 1.29). Pooled number of major adverse effects was lower in the PBD group at 10.40 (95 % CI = 9.96 to 10.83) compared to 15.56 (95 % CI = 15.06 to 16.05) in the DS group. Subgroup analysis comparing internal PBD to DS group showed lower odds for major adverse events (odds ratio, 0.48 with 95 % CI = 0.32 to 0.74). CONCLUSIONS In patients with malignant biliary jaundice requiring surgery, PBD group had significantly less major adverse effects than DS group. Length of hospital stay and mortality rate were comparable in both the groups.
