Zhang B, Lang Z, Zhu K, Luo W, Zhao Z, Zhang Z, Wang Z. Whether preoperative biliary drainage leads to better patient outcomes of pancreaticoduodenectomy: a meta-analysis and systematic review. BMC Gastroenterol 2025; 25:161. [PMID: 40069629 PMCID: PMC11900024 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-025-03761-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2024] [Accepted: 03/04/2025] [Indexed: 03/14/2025] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether preoperative biliary drainage is beneficial for patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS The PubMed, Cochrane Library and the Web of Science were systematically searched for relevant trials that included outcome of pancreaticoduodenectomy with and without preoperative biliary drainage from January 2010 to May 2024. The primary outcomes are postoperative pancreatic fistula and intra-abdominal infection. Data is pooled using the risk ratio or standardized mean difference with 95% confidence interval. The study protocol was registered prospectively with PROSPERO (CRD42022372584). RESULTS A total of 39 retrospective cohort studies with 33,516 patients were included in this trial. Compared with no preoperative biliary drainage, the preoperative biliary drainage group had a longer hospital stay (SMD, 0.14). Performing preoperative biliary drainage significantly increases the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula (RR, 1.09), intra-abdominal infection (RR, 1.09), surgical site infection (RR, 1.84), and sepsis (RR, 1.37). But preoperative biliary drainage lowers risk of bile leak (RR, 0.74). CONCLUSION Preoperative biliary drainage before pancreaticoduodenectomy increases the risk of postoperative complications without clear overall benefits. Routine PBD is not recommended for younger patients with mild to moderate jaundice but may be considered for high-risk patients, such as those with severe infections or progressive jaundice. Optimizing preoperative biliary drainage duration and timing may help reduce complications. Further research is needed to refine patient selection and perioperative strategies.

The Clinical Impact of Different Types of Preoperative Biliary Intervention on Postoperative Biliary Tract Infection of Patients Undergoing Pancreaticoduodenectomy. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4150. [PMID: 39064190 PMCID: PMC11278498 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13144150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Revised: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 06/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: For patients with obstructive jaundice and who are indicated for pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) or biliary intervention, either endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography and drainage (PTCD) may be indicated preoperatively. However, the possibility of procedure-related postoperative biliary tract infection (BTI) should be a concern. We tried to evaluate the impact of ERCP and PTCD on postoperative BTI. Methods: Patients diagnosed from June 2013 to March 2022 with periampullary lesions and with PD indicated were enrolled in this cohort. Patients without intraoperative bile culture and non-neoplastic lesions were excluded. Clinical information, including demographic and laboratory data, pathologic diagnosis, results of microbiologic tests, and relevant infectious outcomes, was extracted from medical records for analysis. Results: One-hundred-and-sixty-four patients from the cohort (164/689) underwent preoperative biliary intervention, either ERCP (n = 125) or PTCD (n = 39). The positive yield of intraoperative biliary culture was significantly higher in patients who underwent ERCP than in PTCD (90.4% vs. 41.0%, p < 0.001). Although there was no significance, a trend of higher postoperative BTI (13.8% vs. 2.7%) and BTI-related septic shock (5 vs. 0, 4.0% vs. 0%) in the ERCP group was noticed. While the risk factors for postoperative BTI have not been confirmed, a trend suggesting a higher incidence of BTI associated with ERCP procedures was observed, with a borderline p-value (p = 0.05, regarding ERCP biopsy). Conclusions: ERCP in patients undergoing PD increases the positive yield of intraoperative biliary culture. PTCD may be the favorable option if preoperative biliary intervention is indicated.

Abstract
A biliary stricture is an abnormal narrowing in the ductal drainage system of the liver that can result in clinically and physiologically relevant obstruction to the flow of bile. The most common and ominous etiology is malignancy, underscoring the importance of a high index of suspicion in the evaluation of this condition. The goals of care in patients with a biliary stricture are confirming or excluding malignancy (diagnosis) and reestablishing flow of bile to the duodenum (drainage); the approach to diagnosis and drainage varies according to anatomic location (extrahepatic vs perihilar). For extrahepatic strictures, endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition is highly accurate and has become the diagnostic mainstay. In contrast, the diagnosis of perihilar strictures remains a challenge. Similarly, the drainage of extrahepatic strictures tends to be more straightforward and safer and less controversial than that of perihilar strictures. Recent evidence has provided some clarity in multiple important areas pertaining to biliary strictures, whereas several remaining controversies require additional research. The goal of this guideline is to provide practicing clinicians with the most evidence-based guidance on the approach to patients with extrahepatic and perihilar strictures, focusing on diagnosis and drainage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) on outcomes of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in patients with biliary obstruction. METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane library, and Web of Science from database inception to 11 March 2021. We used the ROBINS-I tool and Cochrane risk of bias tool 2.0 to assess the risk of bias. The data were statistically analyzed using the RevMan software (Version 5.4). RESULTS In all, 43 studies, including 23,076 patients, were analyzed, of which 13,922 patients were treated with PBD and 9154 were treated with no preoperative biliary drainage (NPBD). The morbidity , infection morbidity , and postoperative pancreatic fistulae (POPF) in patients undergoing PBD, were significantly higher than those in patients undergoing NPBD. Further, PBD may lead to a significantly worse 2- and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates . In subgroup meta-analysis, the differences in morbidity, POPF, and OS outcomes lost significance between the PBD and NPBD groups when the mean total serum bilirubin (TSB) concentration was below 15 mg/dl. CONCLUSIONS Routine PBD still cannot be recommended because it showed no beneficial effect on postoperative outcomes. However, in patients with < 15 mg/dl TSB concentration, PBD tends to be a better choice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is the only curative therapy for distal cholangiocarcinoma (dCC). There has been no study to compare outcomes between minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (MIPD) and open pancreatoduodenectomy (OPD) for dCC. The aim of the study is to compare the two operation types for dCC in terms of postoperative and oncologic outcomes. METHODS Data from 426 patients who underwent MIPD (n = 91) or OPD (n = 335) for dCC from January 2012 to December 2019 at two tertiary hospitals were retrospectively reviewed. After 1:2 propensity score matching, postoperative and oncologic outcomes were compared. RESULTS Minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy group showed more favorable results than OPD group in terms of blood loss (MIPD vs OPD, 250 [150-400] vs 400 [200-600], mL, P < .001), and length of hospital stay (19.8 ± 11.3 vs 26.6 ± 14.3 days, P < .001). OPD group showed more favorable results than MIPD group in terms of operation time (MIPD vs OPD, 457 ± 70 vs 398 ± 85 min, P < .001) and harvested lymph nodes (14.9 ± 7.8 vs 20.7 ± 11.5, P < .001). There was no statistical difference between the two groups in the R0 resection rate and complications. In long-term survival analysis, there was no significant difference between the two groups. CONCLUSION Minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy showed comparable postoperative complications and long-term oncologic survival with OPD in the treatment of dCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ) is a common condition caused by several primary and secondary cancers. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate technical success rate and safety of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) versus endoscopic biliary drainage (EBD) in MOJ. MATERIALS AND METHODS Relevant trials were identified by searching electronic databases and conference meetings. We included thirteen retrospective studies and four randomized controlled trials, with PTBD performed in 2353 patients and EBD in 8178 patients. Outcomes of interest included: technical success rate, overall complications, 30-day mortality rate and risk of bleeding, pancreatitis, cholangitis and tube dislocation. RESULTS The differences in technical success rate, total complications, 30-day mortality rate and tube dislocation were not statistically significant between the two groups. Patients receiving PTBD showed a lower risk of pancreatitis (OR=0.14, 95%CI=0.06-0.31) and cholangitis (OR=0.52, 95%CI=0.30-0.90) when compared to EBD while PTBD was associated with higher risk of bleeding (OR=1.78; 95%CI=1.32-2.39). CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis indicates the presence of some advantages and limits for both PTBD and EBD. We highlight the paucity of quality-of-life data, a vital element which should be carefully pondered in future studies and in choosing the optimal technique in patients with MOJ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether biliary drainage should be performed before surgery in jaundiced patients is a topic of debate. Published studies on the effect of preoperative biliary drainage show great discrepancies in their conclusions, and the use of different drainage methods is an important factor. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of preoperative biliary stents (PBS) on postoperative outcomes in patients following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, Science Citation Index Expanded, and the Cochrane database were searched up to October 2019 to identify all published articles related to the topic. A meta-analysis was performed to compare postoperative outcomes in patients with and without PBS. Quality assessment and data extraction from included studies were performed by 2 independent authors. Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.2 software. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies involving 10,445 patients were included in the analysis. Biliary drainage was performed in 5769 patients (PBS group), and the remaining 4676 patients underwent PD directly (direct surgery [DS] group). Overall mortality, severe complications, abdominal hemorrhage, bile leakage, intra-abdominal abscess, and pancreatic fistula were not significantly different between the PBS and DS groups. However, overall morbidity, delayed gastric emptying, and wound infection were significantly higher in the PBS group compared to the DS group. Subgroup analysis indicated that the adverse effect of PBS on postoperative complications was more evident with increased stent proportion. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative biliary stenting increases overall morbidity, delayed gastric emptying, and wound infection rates in patients following PD. Thus, preoperative biliary drainage via stent placement should be avoided in patients waiting for PD.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality with an overall five-year survival of less than 9% in the United States. At presentation, the majority of patients have painless jaundice, pruritis, and malaise, a triad that develops secondary to obstruction, which often occurs late in the course of the disease process. The technical advancements in radiological imaging and endoscopic interventions have played a crucial role in the diagnosis, staging, and management of patients with pancreatic cancer. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)-guided diagnosis (with brush cytology, serial pancreatic juice aspiration cytologic examination technique, or biliary biopsy) and therapeutic interventions such as pancreatobiliary decompression, intraductal and relief of gastric outlet obstruction play a pivotal role in the management of advanced pancreatic cancer and are increasingly used due to improved morbidity and complication rates compared to surgical management. In this review, we highlight various ERCP-guided diagnostic and therapeutic interventions for the management of pancreatic cancer.

Zhang W, Che X. Comparison of effect between nasobiliary drainage and biliary stenting in malignant biliary obstruction: a systematic review and updated meta-analysis. World J Surg Oncol 2020; 18:71. [PMID: 32276634 PMCID: PMC7149920 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-020-01848-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2019] [Accepted: 03/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the efficacy of endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) and endoscopic biliary stenting (EBS) in preoperative biliary drainage (PBD). METHODS ENBD and EBS related literature of patients with malignant biliary obstruction published before September 2019 were collected from PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library for comparison analysis. Revman 5.3 statistical software was used for analysis. RESULTS Nine studies were used for our comparative study. A total of 1435 patients were included, which consisted of 813 in the ENBD group and 622 in the EBS group. Meta-analysis showed that patients with malignant biliary obstruction who received ENBD had reductions in the rates of preoperative cholangitis (RR = 0.46, 95% CI = 0.34-0.62, P < 0.00001), preoperative pancreatitis (RR = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.50-0.95, P = 0.02), stent dysfunction (RR = 0.58, 95% CI = 0.43-0.80, P = 0.0008), morbidity (RR = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.64-0.93, P = 0.007), and postoperative pancreatic fistula (RR = 0.65, 95% CI = 0.45-0.92, P = 0.02) compared with patients who received EBS. CONCLUSIONS The rates of preoperative cholangitis, preoperative pancreatitis, post-operative pancreatic fistula, stent dysfunction, and morbidity of ENBD patients were lower than those of EBS patients. In clinical practice, the physical condition of each patient and their tolerance should be fully considered. ENBD should be given priority. EBS should be replaced if stent dysfunction or intolerance occurs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Preoperative biliary drainage has been widely used to treat patients with malignant biliary obstruction. However, it is still unclear which method is more effective: internal drainage or external drainage. Thus, we carried out a meta-analysis to compare the safety and efficacy of the two drainage methods in treatment of malignant biliary obstruction in terms of preoperative and postoperative complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS We conducted a literature search of Medline, EMBASE, PubMed, Ovid journals and the Cochrane Library, and compared internal drainage and external drainage in malignant biliary obstruction patients. The pre- and postoperative complications, stent dysfunction rate and mortality were analyzed. RESULTS Ten published studies (n = 1464 patients) were included in this meta-analysis. We found that patients with malignant biliary obstruction who received external drainage showed reductions in the preoperative cholangitis rate (OR = 0.33, 95% CI: 0.24-0.44, p < 0.00001), the incidence of stent dysfunction (OR = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.30-0.57, p < 0.00001), and total morbidity (OR = 0.34, 95% CI: 0.23-0.50, p < 0.00001) compared with patients who received internal drainage. CONCLUSIONS The current meta-analysis indicates that external drainage is better than internal drainage for malignant biliary obstruction in terms of the preoperative cholangitis rate, the incidence of stent dysfunction and total morbidity, etc. However, the findings need to be confirmed by randomized controlled trials.

[PMID: 29972400 PMCID: PMC6044204 DOI: 10.1590/0102-672020180001e1372] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2018] [Accepted: 03/15/2018] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
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
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs have been shown to decrease postoperative complications and hospital stay in pancreaticoduodenectomy. However, no studies concerned recovery after discharge except readmission. This study evaluated an ERAS program for pancreaticoduodenectomy from hospital to home.A prospective ERAS cohort undergoing elective pancreaticoduodenectomy was compared with a retrospective control group in terms of postoperative complications and hospital stay, and home recovery after discharge. Propensity-score matching was used to balance their baselines.Two groups of 31 patients with similar propensity scores were established. Postoperative morbidities were 18 of 31 and 26 of 31 in the ERAS and control groups, respectively (P = .06). Patients in the ERAS group suffered from fewer cardiovascular complications (3/31 vs 11/31; P = .04) and intestinal dysbacteriosis (4/31 vs 13/31; P = .04). Median postoperative hospital stay was shorter in the ERAS group (8 vs 16 days; P < .001). Although the 2 groups were similar in terms of sleep, defecation, vigor, performance status, and pain control in first month after discharge, patients in the ERAS group enjoyed better food intake recovery (18/31 vs 5/31 in first week, P = .002; 22/31 vs 9/31 in second week, P = .008; 23/31 vs 13/31 in fourth week, P = .01) and fewer weight loss (10/31 vs 19/31; P = .05). Multivariate analyses showed that both improvements were associated with no bowel preparation.ERAS implementation in selected patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy could promise better outcomes, not only in the hospital but also at home in the short term.

Outcomes of preoperative endoscopic nasobiliary drainage and endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage for malignant distal biliary obstruction prior to pancreaticoduodenectomy. World J Gastroenterol 2017; 23:5386-5394. [PMID: 28839439 PMCID: PMC5550788 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v23.i29.5386] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2017] [Revised: 05/03/2017] [Accepted: 06/19/2017] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM To compare the outcomes of preoperative endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) and endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage (ERBD) in patients with malignant distal biliary obstruction prior to pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS Data from 153 consecutive patients who underwent preoperative endoscopic biliary drainage prior to PD between January 2009 and July 2016 were analyzed. We compared the clinical data, procedure-related complications of endoscopic biliary drainage (EBD) and postoperative complications of PD between the ENBD and ERBD groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses with odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) were used to identify the risk factors for deep abdominal infection after PD. RESULTS One hundred and two (66.7%) patients underwent ENBD, and 51 (33.3%) patients underwent ERBD. Endoscopic sphincterotomy was less frequently performed in the ENBD group than in the ERBD group (P = 0.039); the EBD duration in the ENBD group was shorter than that in the ERBD group (P = 0.036). After EBD, the levels of total bilirubin (TB) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were obviously decreased in both groups, and the decreases of TB and ALT in the ERBD group were greater than those in the ENBD group (P = 0.004 and P = 0.000, respectively). However, the rate of EBD procedure-related cholangitis was significantly higher in the ERBD group than in the ENBD group (P = 0.007). The postoperative complications of PD as graded by the Clavien-Dindo classification system were not significantly different between the two groups (P = 0.864). However, the incidence of deep abdominal infection after PD was significantly lower in the ENBD group than in the ERBD group (P = 0.019). Male gender (OR = 3.92; 95%CI: 1.63-9.47; P = 0.002), soft pancreas texture (OR = 3.60; 95%CI: 1.37-9.49; P = 0.009), length of biliary stricture (≥ 1.5 cm) (OR = 5.20; 95%CI: 2.23-12.16; P = 0.000) and ERBD method (OR = 4.08; 95%CI: 1.69-9.87; P = 0.002) were independent risk factors for deep abdominal infection after PD. CONCLUSION ENBD is an optimal method for patients with malignant distal biliary obstruction prior to PD. ERBD is superior to ENBD in terms of patient tolerance and the effect of biliary drainage but is associated with an increased risk of EBD procedure-related cholangitis and deep abdominal infection after PD.

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.

Abstract
Preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) prior to pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) has gained popularity as bridge management to resolve jaundice, but its role is being challenged as it is thought to increase morbidity. To clarify the current recommendations for PBD prior to PD, we reviewed the literature, including all relevant articles published in English up until December, 2015. There is increasing evidence that PBD causes bile infection, which is related to the morbidity of infectious complications. Results of transhepatic drainage are poorer than those of endoscopic stenting, especially in an oncologic setting, although it is still unclear whether metallic stents are superior to nasobiliary drainage. PBD should be avoided whenever possible and performed only in selected cases, such as the emergency setting, an inevitable long delay (>4 weeks) before PD, and jaundice-related anorexia. Seemingly, transhepatic drainage should be reserved for refractory cases if endoscopic drainage is not possible. Further studies comparing endoscopic drainage techniques, such as metallic stents and nasobiliary drainage, are required to assess the most effective technique of PBD. Bile infection should be prevented by adequate antibiotic prophylaxis and treated even in the absence of symptoms, and bile status should be assessed systematically.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) has been widely used to treat patients with malignant biliary obstruction. However, it is still unclear which method of PBD (endoscopic nasobiliary drainage or endoscopic biliary stenting) is more effective. Thus, we carried out a meta-analysis to compare the safety and efficacy of endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) and endoscopic biliary stenting (EBS) in malignant biliary obstruction in terms of preoperative and postoperative complications. METHODS We conducted a literature search of EMBASE databases, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library to identify relevant available articles that were published in English, and we then compared ENBD and EBS in malignant biliary obstruction patients. The preoperative cholangitis rate, the preoperative pancreatitis rate, the incidence of stent dysfunction, the postoperative pancreatic fistula rate, and morbidity were analyzed. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to express the pooled effect on dichotomous variables, and the pooled analyses were performed using RevMan 5.3. RESULTS Seven published studies (n = 925 patients) were included in this meta-analysis. We determined that patients with malignant biliary obstruction who received ENBD had reductions in the preoperative cholangitis rate (OR = 0.35, 95% CI = 0.25-0.51, P < 0.0001), the postoperative pancreatic fistula rate (OR = 0.38, 95% CI = 0.18-0.82, P = 0.01), the incidence of stent dysfunction (OR = 0.39, 95% CI = 0.28-0.56, P < 0.0001), and morbidity (OR = 0.47, 95% CI = 0.27-0.82, P = 0.008) compared with patients who received EBS. CONCLUSIONS The current meta-analysis suggests that ENBD is better than EBS for malignant biliary obstruction in terms of the preoperative cholangitis rate, the postoperative pancreatic fistula rate, the incidence of stent dysfunction, and morbidity. However, a limitation is that there are no data from randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatobiliary surgery with biliodigestive anastomosis (BDA) results in a loss of the sphincter of Oddi with consecutive ascension of bacteria into the bile system which may cause cholangitis in the postoperative course. METHODS Patients who received reconstruction with a BDA after hepatobiliary surgery were analyzed retrospectively for their postoperative course of disease depending on intraoperatively obtained bile cultures and antibiotic prophylaxis. RESULTS Two hundred forty-three patients were included in the analysis, 49.4 % of whom had received endoscopic stenting before the operation. Stenting was significantly associated with the presence of drug-resistant bacteria in the intraoperatively obtained bile sample (p < 0.001, OR = 4.09). Of all patients, 14.4 % developed postoperative cholangitis. This was significantly associated with the postoperative length of stay in the intensive care unit (p = 0.002, OR = 1.035). The highest incidence of postoperative cholangitis was found in patients with cholangiocellular carcinoma (n = 12, p = 0.046, OR = 2.178). Patients were more likely to harbor strains with resistance against the antibiotic that was given intraoperatively. CONCLUSION The risk for the presence of drug-resistant bacteria is increased by preoperative stenting of the common bile duct. Bile culture by intraoperative swabs can be altered by the perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis as it induces microbiological selection in the common bile duct.
