Surgical outcomes of hepatocellular carcinoma with extrahepatic bile duct tumor thrombus: a multicenter study. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1291479. [PMID: 38111530 PMCID: PMC10726108 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1291479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The long-term prognosis after surgery of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and extrahepatic bile duct tumor thrombus (Ex-BDTT) remains unknown. We aimed to identify the surgical outcomes of patients with HCC and Ex-BDTT. Methods A total of 138 patients with Ex-BDTT who underwent hepatectomy with preservation of the extrahepatic bile duct from five large hospitals in China between January 2009 and December 2017 were included. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Results With a median follow-up of 60 months (range, 1-127.8 months), the median OS and RFS of the patients were 28.6 and 8.9 months, respectively. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates of HCC patients with Ex-BDTT were 71.7%, 41.2%, and 33.5%, respectively, and the corresponding RFS rates were 43.5%, 21.7%, and 20.0%, respectively. Multivariate analysis identified that major hepatectomy, R0 resection, and major vascular invasion were independent prognostic factors for OS and RFS. In addition, preoperative serum total bilirubin ≥ 4.2 mg/dL was an independent prognostic factor for RFS. Conclusion Major hepatectomy with preservation of the extrahepatic bile duct can provide favorable long-term survival for HCC patients with Ex-BDTT.

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
BACKGROUND Hydatid disease, a parasitic infestation caused by Echinococcus granulosus larvae, is an infectious disease endemic in different areas, such as India, Australia, and South America. The liver is well known as the organ most commonly affected by hydatid disease and may present a wide variety of complications such as hepatothoracic hydatid transit, cyst superinfection, intra-abdominal dissemination, and communication of the biliary cyst with extravasation of parasitic material into the bile duct, also called cholangiohydatidosis. Humans are considered an intermediate host, exposed to these larvae by hand-to-mouth contamination of the feces of infected dogs. AIM This study aimed to highlight the role of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with acute cholangitis secondary to cholangiohydatidosis. METHODS Considering the imaging findings in a 36-year-old female patient with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showing a complex cystic lesion in liver segment VI, with multiple internal vesicles and a wall defect cyst that communicates with the intrahepatic biliary tree, endoscopic biliary drainage was performed by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with papillotomy, leading to the discharge of multiple obstructive cysts and hydatid sand from the main bile duct. RESULTS Clinical and laboratory findings improved after drainage, with hospital discharge under oral antiparasitic treatment before complete surgical resection of the hepatic hydatid cyst. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is a safe and useful method for the treatment of biliary complications of hepatic hydatid disease and should be considered the first-line procedure for biliary drainage in cases of cholangiohydatid disease involving secondary acute cholangitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has recently been reported to be a useful salvage technique after ERCP fail. However, data on EUS-BD used for preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) are limited. The aim of this study was to verify the clinical feasibility of EUS-BD for PBD. METHODS PBD was performed for malignant biliary obstruction in 318 patients at our institution between July 2014 and April 2022. Fifteen (4.7%) of these patients underwent surgical resection after preoperative EUS-BD (HGS 13; HDS 1; AGS with HGS 1) and were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The stent was successfully placed in all 15 cases with a median procedure time of 15 min (technical success rate 100%). The median total bilirubin value decreased significantly from 3.7 before drainage to 0.9 after surgery (p < .001) and cholangitis was well managed (clinical success rate 100%). Surgery was performed at a median of 22 days after drainage, and there were no stent-related adverse events or recurrences of biliary obstruction. Severe surgery-related adverse events occurred in three cases, but none were associated with EUS-BD. The stent was removed during surgery in 12 cases. CONCLUSIONS EUS-BD can be a feasible and safe alternative method of PBD for malignant biliary obstruction after ERCP fail.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Biliary obstruction which is a major complication of pancreas and periampullary tumors could result in cholangitis, coagulopathies, gastrointestinal symptoms, and impaired wound healing. Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is still the standard approach for pancreas resection and imposes high risk of morbidity and mortality to patients. To reduce the high risk of PD and address the biliary obstruction, the use of preoperative biliary stenting was increased. However, available literature doubts its efficiency.
Methods
A total of 147 patients who underwent PD between September 2012, and February 2022, at three medical centers were identified. Patients were grouped based on biliary stent placement. Non-jaundiced patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) were compared.
Results
The incidence of overall complications (34.2% versus 45.8%) and mortality (17.8% versus 24.3%) did not differ in the PBD group compared to the no PBD group. There was no difference in complications and mortality in non-jaundiced patients with and without PBD. Patients with drainage duration of > 30 days experienced more overall complications compared to patients with less than 30 days drainage duration (12 (50.0%) and three (15.8%) patients, respectively, p-value = 0.019).
Conclusions
PBD does not significantly increase the post-operative burden on patients who undergo PD. However, we cannot overlook the financial burden that PBD places on the patient and the healthcare system, as well as the difficulties related to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Therefore, biliary stenting should not be routinely practiced in the absence of a valid indication, such as severe jaundice, pruritus, cholangitis, delayed surgery for neoadjuvant treatment, or referral to a tertiary facility.

Abstract
Biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy was introduced to decrease morbidity from obstructive jaundice. Recent retrospective and randomised data show that preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) increases perioperative infectious complications. Most patients presenting to our tertiary care centre have undergone drainage procedures prior to surgical consultation. We analysed the impact of PBD, specifically endoscopic stent placement, on the postoperative outcome of pancreaticoduodenectomy at our centre. A cohort of 87 patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy from 2012 to 2016 was identified. Data was collected retrospectively and a comparative analysis of stented and nonstented patients was done. Comparison of the 23 stented patients was done with 23 nonstented patients after matching them for age, sex and bilirubin levels. Median total bilirubin level in stented patients was 10.2 mg/dl versus 7.7 mg/dl in nonstented patients. The infectious complication rate in the stented group was 39.1% versus 12.7% in the nonstented group (P value < 0.05). There was no difference in the anastomotic leak rate between the two groups. Time to curative surgery in the stented group was significantly more than in the nonstented group. Stented patients are at a higher risk for postoperative infectious complications. Patients with obstructive jaundice awaiting surgery should undergo selective biliary drainage after careful planning and discussion between the operating surgeon and the endoscopist.

Endoscopic versus percutaneous biliary drainage for resectable pancreatic head cancer with hyperbilirubinemia and impact on pancreaticoduodenectomy: A randomized controlled study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that percutaneous biliary drainage provides more short-term advantages over endoscopic stenting before pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS Between January 2019 and December 2010, a prospective cohort study was conducted. Sixty patients with potentially resectable pancreatic head cancers and high bilirubin levels were stratified into two equal groups according to the method of biliary drainage: endoscopic stenting or percutaneous drainage. The primary outcome measures were operative difficulties and early postoperative morbidity, the secondary outcome was post-drainage complications. RESULTS Both groups were comparable in age; gender; presenting symptoms, type of malignancy, post-drainage complications, and time intervals between drainage and surgery. Key preoperative significant differences were technically higher but clinical success rates was better in the PTD cohort. ERCP patients had significantly more difficult dissections, more blood loss, longer resection time, more postoperative bile leak, and longer hospital stay. CONCLUSION From the operative perspective, patients who underwent PTD in the preoperative setting had fewer morbidities and shorter hospital stay. Large scale studies are required to support the validity of these findings in surgical practice.

Abstract
Biliary obstruction is one of challenging biliary disorders in gastroenterology field, where this long-standing condition can also lead to portal hypertension and multi-disciplinary teamwork is usually needed to manage this problem. Biliary drainage is the primary management to prevent prolonged cholestasis. Biliary system with its thin-walled and tubular structure sometimes makes the diagnosis and therapeutic not easy to approach. Over the past 3 decades, numerous new and modern diagnostic and therapeutic modalities have been developed to manage the complex biliary problems. It is well known that endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD), and surgical procedure are common procedures in managing biliary disorders. However, surgical therapy and ERCP are not always easy to perform due to several contraindications. Because of difficulty in performing these procedures or unavailability of these procedures in the facility, PTBD, as the primary non-surgical procedure of choice, has been popular due to its easy technique. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has evolved significantly not only as a diagnostic tool for identification and staging, but also for interventional approaches, especially in management of biliary malignancy. Recently, EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) and EUS-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) are developed for managing biliary disorders. Whether EUS can be useful for managing biliary obstruction as a primary procedure is still controversial. Hence, a large number of further studies are required to validate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to construct and internally validate a nomogram for predicting major complications in obstructive jaundice patients planned to undergo pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS The clinical data of 835 obstructive jaundice patients who underwent PD in a high-volume center were collected and retrospectively analyzed during an 8-year period. Factors affecting the major complication rate were optimized by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis and were incorporated in logistic regression analysis. The performance of this nomogram was evaluated by discrimination, calibration, internal validation and clinical utility. RESULTS Predictors included in the model were sex, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, preoperative biliary drainage (PBD), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), hemoglobin, prealbumin, total bilirubin, transfusion, and pathology category. The model had good discrimination and calibration with a C-index of 0.700. Internal validation generated an acceptable C-index of 0.701. Decision curve analysis indicated this nomogram was clinically useful for predicting the possibility of major complications at a threshold between 1% and 59%. CONCLUSION This novel nomogram could be conveniently used and assist in decisions for PBD in clinical practice.

[PMID: 32107192 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2020.02.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2019] [Revised: 01/16/2020] [Accepted: 02/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The influence of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) for obstructive jaundiced patients before pancreaticoduodenectomy is debated in the past decades. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of preoperative biliary drainage on intraoperative and postoperative outcomes in patients with severely obstructive jaundice. METHODS Data were collected retrospectively from severely obstructive jaundiced patients with serum total bilirubin level exceeding 250 μmol/L and undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy from January 2012 to December 2017. The univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to assess independent risk factors for overall postoperative complications. A propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis was performed to adjust baseline characteristics between PBD and direct surgery (DS) groups. After PSM, intraoperative data and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS A total of 200 patients were included. The rate of overall postoperative complication occurred in 119 (59.5%) patients, with prealbumin <150 mg/L (OR = 3.03; 95%CI = [1.63-5.62]; p < 0.001), ASA (American Society of Anesthesiology score) classification II-III (OR = 2.27; 95%CI = [1.21-4.27]; p = 0.011), and direct surgery (OR = 3.88; 95%CI = [1.67-8.99]; p = 0.002) identified as independent risk factors in multivariate analysis. After PSM, there was similar operative time and intraoperative transfusion between PBD and DS group. However, DS group had a higher incidence of overall postoperative complication (p = 0.005), grades B and C of post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) (p = 0.032), and grades B and C of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) (p = 0.045) compared to PBD group. CONCLUSIONS In this retrospective study, in order to reduce overall postoperative complications, PBD should be performed routinely for those patients with serum total bilirubin level exceeding 250 μmol/L and undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of bile contamination on the infectious complications of patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) has not been thoroughly evaluated.
AIM To evaluate the effect of preoperative biliary drainage and bile contamination on the outcomes of patients who undergo PD.
METHODS The database of 4101 patients who underwent PD was reviewed. Preoperative biliary drainage was performed in 1964 patients (47.9%), and bile contamination was confirmed in 606 patients (14.8%).
RESULTS The incidence of postoperative infectious complications was 37.9% in patients with preoperative biliary drainage and 42.4% in patients with biliary contamination, respectively. Patients with extrahepatic bile duct carcinoma, ampulla of Vater carcinoma, and pancreatic carcinoma had a high frequency of preoperative biliary drainage (82.9%, 54.6%, and 50.8%) and bile contamination (34.3%, 26.2%, and 20.2%). Bile contamination was associated with postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) Grade B/C, wound infection, and catheter infection. A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that biliary contamination (odds ratio 1.33, P = 0.027) was the independent risk factor for POPF Grade B/C. The three most commonly cultured microorganisms from bile (Enterococcus, Klebsiella, and Enterobacter) were identical to those isolated from organ spaces.
CONCLUSION In patients undergoing PD, bile contamination is related to postoperative infectious complication including POPF Grade B/C. The management of biliary contamination should be standardised for patients who require preoperative biliary drainage for PD, as the main microorganisms are identical in both organ spaces and bile.

A systematic review of the comparison of the incidence of seeding metastasis between endoscopic biliary drainage and percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage for resectable malignant biliary obstruction. World J Surg Oncol 2019; 17:116. [PMID: 31277666 PMCID: PMC6612106 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-019-1656-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2019] [Accepted: 06/20/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and aim Endoscopic biliary drainage (EBD) and percutaneous biliary drainage (PTBD) are the two main strategies of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) for resectable malignant biliary obstruction (MBO) worldwide, but which is better remains unclear. Seeding metastasis (SM) has been reported repeatedly in the recent decade, although it is rarely taken into consideration in the choice of PBD. Hence, a systematic review was badly warranted to evaluate the incidence of SM between PTBD and EBD in the preoperative treatment of MBO. Methods PubMed, MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were used to identify any potentially eligible studies comparing the incidence of SM between EBD and PTBD from Nov 1990 to Mar 2018. The effect size was determined by odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Results Ten studies were enrolled in this study, including 1379 cases in the EBD group and 1085 cases in the PTBD group. Results showed that the incidence of SM in the EBD group was significantly lower than that in the PTBD group (10.5% vs. 22.0%, OR = 0.35, 95% CI 0.23~0.53). Subgroup analysis stratified by the definition of SM showed that the pooled ORs for peritoneal metastasis and tube-related SM between EBD and PTBD were 0.42 (95% CI 0.31~0.57) and 0.17 (95% CI 0.10~0.29), respectively. Subgroup analysis stratified by the location of MBO showed that the pooled ORs for the incidence of SM between EBD and PTBD for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, distal cholangiocarcinoma, and pancreatic cancer were 0.27 (95% CI 0.13~0.56), 0.32 (95% CI 0.17~0.60), and 0.27 (95% CI 0.19~0.40), respectively. Conclusion EBD should be the optimal PBD for MBO considering the SM, but it deserved further validation.

Abstract
Objective Endoscopic papillectomy (EP) has been recognized to be a safe and reliable treatment modality for ampullary adenomas. The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of endoscopic piecemeal resection for laterally spreading ampullary adenomas and to compare these findings with a control population of smaller conventional ampullary tumors treated in the same time period. Methods Between May 1999 and September 2015, 136 patients underwent EP at Tokyo Medical University hospital. A total of 125 patients underwent en bloc resection, and 11 patients underwent piecemeal resection. Results The final pathological diagnoses were 103 adenomas, 14 carcinomas in adenomas, 4 carcinomas, and 4 hyperplasia in the en bloc resection group, versus 7 adenomas, 3 carcinomas in adenoma, and 1 carcinomas in the piecemeal resection group. A single treatment session was possible in 104 (83.2%) of the 125 patients in the en bloc resection group and in 8 (72.7%) of the 11 in the piecemeal resection group. The total resection rate including additional treatments was 98.4% in the en bloc resection group and 100% in the piecemeal resection group. Conclusion Piecemeal resection for laterally spreading ampullary adenomas was sufficiently performed compared with en bloc resection.

Abstract
Introduction: Periampular neoplasms represent 5% of all cancers of the gastrointestinal
tract with peak incidence in the 7th decade of life. The most
common clinical picture is jaundice, weight loss and abdominal pain.
Considering that cholestasis is related to postoperative complications,
preoperative biliary drainage was developed to improve the postoperative
morbidity and mortality of icteric patients with periampular neoplasias,
whether resectable or not. Objective: To describe the outcome of patients with periampullary tumors undergoing
preoperative biliary drainage with pancreatoduodenectomy. Method: The search was performed in the Medline/PubMed and Virtual Health Library
databases by means of the combination of descriptors of the Medical Subject
Headings. Inclusion criteria were clinical trials, cohorts, studies that
analyze the morbidity and mortality of preoperative biliary drainage in
Portuguese, English and Spanish. Exclusion criteria were studies published
more than 10 years ago, experimental studies, systematic reviews and
articles with WebQualis C or smaller journal in the area of Medicine I or
Medicine III. Of the 196 references found, 46 were obtained for reading with
quality assessed through the Checklist Strengthening the Reporting of
Observational Studies in Epidemiology. Eight studies were selected for
review. Results: A total of 1116 patients with a sample ranging from 48 to 280 patients and a
mean age of 48 to 69 years were obtained. Of the eight studies, four
observed a higher rate of bleeding in drained patients; three a higher rate
of positive bile culture in the intervention group; site and cavitary
infection, and biliopancreatic leaks were more common in the drainage group
in two studies each. The death outcome and rate of reoperation were observed
in larger numbers in the control group in one study each. Conclusion: Preoperative intervention leads to a higher rate of infectious complications
and bleeding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided pancreatic duct drainage (EUS-PD) has been reported as an alternative for failed conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). However, there are few dedicated devices for EUS-PD. Recently, we have developed a new plastic stent dedicated to EUS-PD and have conducted a feasibility study to evaluate its efficacy. In the current study, we evaluated the long-term efficacy of this new plastic stent. PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty patients (61 ± 14.3 years old, 14 men) with acute recurrent pancreatitis caused by a stricture in the main pancreatic duct (MPD) or stenotic pancreatoenterostomy were treated at our institution using our recently developed 7Fr plastic stent between August 2013 and April 2017. RESULTS The stent was placed successfully in all patients (30/30) and early clinical success was achieved in all of them. Early adverse events (AEs) occurred in seven patients (23.3 %), namely, self-limited abdominal pain (n = 5), mild pancreatitis (n = 1), and bleeding which required transcatheter arterial embolization (n = 1). Two patients died of primary disease and three were lost to follow-up. The remaining 25 patients were followed up after initial EUS-PD for a median of 23 months (range, 6 - 44 months). Twenty patients required regular stent exchange (3 times; range, 1 - 12 times). Spontaneous stent dislodgement was observed in six patients. Four patients wanted their stents removed 1 year after the initial intervention. Twelve patients (48 %) had regular stent exchange 1 year after the initial intervention. Three patients converted to standard transpapillary pancreatic duct stenting by conventional ERCP. Finally, nine patients (36 %) had complete stent removal either intentionally or by spontaneous dislodgement without any symptoms. CONCLUSION The new plastic stent for EUS-PD was associated with not only short-term technical success but also long-term clinical success in the majority of patients evaluated in this study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) is often indicated for advanced stage patients. Therefore it is important to prevent adverse events associated with EUS-HGS procedures and obtain long stent patency. EUS-guided antegrade stenting (AS) has been developed as an advanced technique. Thus, to prevent adverse events and achieve long stent patency, EUS-AS combined with EUS-HGS (EUS-HGAS) has been reported. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the technical feasibility and efficacy of EUS-HGAS in a multicenter, prospective study. METHODS This prospective study was carried out at each hospital of the Therapeutic Endoscopic Ultrasound Group. Primary endpoint of this multicenter prospective study was stent patency of EUS-HGAS. RESULTS A total of 49 patients were enrolled. Technical success rate of EUS-HGS was 95.9% (47/49). EUS-AS failed in five patients because the guidewire could not be advanced into the intestine across the bile duct obstruction site. Therefore, EUS-HGAS was successfully carried out in 40 patients (technical success rate: 85.7%). Median overall survival was 114 days. Median stent patency including stent dysfunction and patient death was 114 days. In contrast, mean stent patency was 320 days. Adverse events were seen in 10.2% (5/49) of cases. Hyperamylasemia was seen in four patients, and bleeding was seen in one patient. CONCLUSIONS The present study is the first to evaluate EUS-HGAS. EUS-HGAS has clinical benefit for obtaining long stent patency and avoiding adverse events, although the possibility of acute pancreatitis as a result of obstruction of the orifice of the pancreatic duct must be considered.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Recently, a novel EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) technique consisting of EUS-guided antegrade stenting and EUS-guided hepaticoenterostomy (EUS-AS+HES) using two conventional metal stents (MS) has been reported to decrease adverse events and maintain longer stent patency for malignant biliary obstruction (MBO). However, only a few limited reports have evaluated this technique. Finally, dedicated plastic stents (PSs) have been developed to perform EUS-HES safely. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the outcome in EUS-AS+HES for MBO using the dedicated HES PSs. Methods: The results of a total of 23 patients who underwent EUS-AS+HES (18 simultaneous cases and 5 sequential cases) for MBO from October 2014 to July 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Technical and clinical success rates were 100% (23/23). Adverse events were seen in 8.7% (2/23); 2 cases of mild biliary peritonitis, which were successfully managed conservatively. Overall survival was 96 days and the median duration of stent patency, including stent dysfunction, patient death, and last follow-up, was 66.0 days (53 days in simultaneous cases and 78 days in sequential cases). Stent dysfunction was seen in 13.0% (3/23) of patients in 267, 263, and 135 days after the procedure. Conclusions: The novel EUS-BD technique, EUS-AS using MS plus HES employing a dedicated PS, was shown to be a feasible procedure for MBO and should yield longer duration of stent patency. Furthermore, sequential antegrade stenting in cases of occluded HES seems to be one other option instead of HES stent exchange. Further large-scale comparison studies with EUS-HES or EUS-AS are required to confirm its clinical efficacy.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the feasibility and reliability of endoscopic transpapillary bile duct biopsy for the diagnosis of biliary strictures.
METHODS A total of 360 patients (241 men) who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for biliary strictures with biopsy from April 2012 to March 2016 at Tokyo Medical University Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. This study was approved by our Institutional Review Board (No. 3516). Informed consent was obtained from all individual participants included in this study. The biopsy specimens were obtained using a novel slim biopsy forceps (Radial Jaw 4P, Boston Scientific, Boston, MA, United States).
RESULTS The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were 69.6%, 100%, 100%, 59.1%, and 78.8%, respectively. The sensitivity was 75.6% in bile duct cancer, 64% in pancreatic cancer, 61.1% in gallbladder cancer, and 57.1% in metastasis. In bile duct cancer, a lower sensitivity was observed for perihilar bile duct stricture (68.7%) than for distal bile duct stricture (83.1%). In terms of the stricture lengths of pancreatic cancer, gallbladder cancer, and metastasis, a longer stenosis resulted in a better sensitivity. In particular, there was a significant difference between pancreatic cancer and gallbladder cancer (P < 0.05). One major complication was perforation of the extrahepatic bile duct with bile leakage.
CONCLUSION Endoscopic transpapillary biopsy alone using novel slim biopsy forceps is feasible and reliable, but restrictive. Biopsy should be performed in consideration of the stricture level, stricture length, and cancer type.

Abstract
The Tokyo Guidelines 2013 (TG13) recommend that endoscopic drainage should be the first-choice treatment for biliary decompression in patients with acute cholangitis. Timing of biliary drainage for acute cholangitis should be based on the severity of the disease. For patients with severe acute cholangitis, appropriate organ support and urgent biliary drainage are needed. For patients with moderate acute cholangitis, early biliary drainage is needed. For patients with mild acute cholangitis, biliary drainage is needed when initial treatment such as antimicrobial therapy is ineffective. There are three methods of biliary drainage: endoscopic drainage, percutaneous transhepatic drainage, and surgical drainage. Endoscopic drainage is less invasive than the other two drainage methods. The drainage method (endoscopic nasobiliary drainage and stenting) depends on the endoscopist's preference but endoscopic sphincterotomy should be selected rather than endoscopic papillary balloon dilation from the aspect of procedure-related complications. In the TG13, balloon enteroscopy-assisted and endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainages have been newly added as specific drainage methods. Recent studies have demonstrated their usefulness and safety. These drainage methods will become more widespread in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical results of patients with resected distal cholangiocarcinoma (DCC) were evaluated to elucidate prognostic impact of the type of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD). METHODS Eighty-eight patients with resected DCC were stratified into two groups according to the type of PBD: the percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) group (n = 25) and the endoscopic biliary drainage (EBD) group (n = 63). RESULTS Overall 5-year survival rate of the patients in the PTBD group was poorer than in the EBD group (24% vs. 52%, P = 0.020). On univariate analysis, PTBD, pancreatic invasion, perineural invasion, and lymph node involvement were significant prognostic factors for poor overall survival. On multivariate analysis, PTBD was the only significantly independent prognostic factor for poor overall survival. The incidence of liver metastasis was significantly higher in the PTBD group than in the EBD group (32.0% vs. 13.3%, P = 0.034). CONCLUSIONS PTBD should be avoided as much as possible in patients with DCC since the patients who underwent PTBD had poorer overall survival and higher incidence of liver metastasis than those who underwent EBD.

Percutaneous biliary drainage is oncologically inferior to endoscopic drainage: a propensity score matching analysis in resectable distal cholangiocarcinoma. J Gastroenterol 2016; 51:608-19. [PMID: 26553053 DOI: 10.1007/s00535-015-1140-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2015] [Accepted: 10/23/2015] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate whether percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) increases the incidence of seeding metastasis and shortens postoperative survival compared with endoscopic biliary drainage (EBD). METHODS A total of 376 patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy following either PTBD (n = 189) or EBD (n = 187) at 30 hospitals between 2001 and 2010 were retrospectively reviewed. Seeding metastasis was defined as peritoneal/pleural dissemination and PTBD sinus tract recurrence. Univariate and multivariate analyses followed by propensity score matching analysis were performed to adjust the data for the baseline characteristics between the two groups. RESULTS The overall survival of the PTBD group was significantly shorter than that of the EBD group (34.2 % vs 48.8 % at 5 years; P = 0.003); multivariate analysis showed that the type of biliary drainage was an independent predictor of survival (P = 0.036) and seeding metastasis (P = 0.001). After two new cohorts with 82 patients each has been generated after 1:1 propensity score matching, the overall survival rate in the PTBD group was significantly less than that in the EBD group (34.7 % vs 52.5 % at 5 years, P = 0.017). The estimated recurrence rate of seeding metastasis was significantly higher in the PTBD group than in the EBD group (30.7 % vs 10.7 % at 5 years, P = 0.006), whereas the recurrence rates at other sites were similar between the two groups (P = 0.579). CONCLUSIONS Compared with EBD, PTBD increases the incidence of seeding metastasis after resection for distal cholangiocarcinoma and shortens postoperative survival.
