Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of pancreatic duct stenting in prevention of post-ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) pancreatitis for patients at high risk. Methods We searched the Controlled Trials Database of the Cochrane Upper Gastro-Intestinal and Pancreatic Disease Group (Issue 1, 2004), Cochrane Controlled Trials Register (Issue 1, 2004), MEDLINE (1966-2004, 4), EMBASE (1985-2004, 4), CBMdisk (1970-2004, 4), and the Chinese Cochrane Center Database of Clinical Trials; we handsearched 8 Chinese journals, and references of eligible studies were also screened for inclusion. Randomized controlled trials on pancreatic stent for preventing post-endoscopic restrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP) were identified.The systematic review was conducted using methods recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration. Results Six trials involving 468 high-risk patients for post-ERCP pancreatitis were included. The incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis was significantly reduced by pancreatic duct stenting (Peto RR 0.31, 95% CI 0.19 to 0.52; P<0.000 01; NNT=6). The incidence of severe PEP was also significantly lower in pancreatic duct stenting group compared with the control group (Peto OR 0.13, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.47; P=0.002; NNT=24). The results were consistent with the sensitivity-analysis when abstracts were excluded. Conclusion Pancreatic duct stenting appears to be an effective method to prevent PEP. Due to the limitation of the included trials and their methodology, the results should be considered with caution. High quality and large-scale trials are required.
Objective To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LC+LCBDE) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography/endoscopic sphincterectomy with LC(ERCP/EST+LC) in treatment for cholecystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis. Methods From January 2008 to July 2011, 127 patients suffered from cholecystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis underwent either LC+LCBDE(85 cases, LC+LCBDE group) or ERCP/EST+LC(42 cases, ERCP/EST+LC group) were collected retrospectively. The clearance rate of calculus, hospital stay, hospitalization expenses, and the rate of postoperative complications were compared between two groups. Results Eighty-five patients were performed successfully in the LC+LCBDE group, out of which 54 patients had primary closure of common bile duct (LC+LCBDE primary closure group), whereas in 28 patients common bile ducts were closed over T tube (LC+LCBDE+T tube group). Forty-two patients were performed successfully in the ERCP/EST+LC group. There were no differences in the clearance rate of calculus〔100%(82/82) versus 97.37%(37/38), P=0.317〕 and postoperative complications rate 〔(4.71% (4/85) versus 4.76%(2/42), P=1.000〕 between the LC+LCBDE group and ERCP/EST+LC group. The median (quartile) hospital stay in the LC+LCBDE group was shorter than that in the ERCP/EST+LC group 〔12 (6) d versus 17(9) d, P<0.001〕. In the LC+LCBDE primary closure group, both median (quartile)?hospital stay and median(quartile) hospitalization expenses were less than those of ERCP/EST+LC〔hospital stay:11(5) d versus 17(9) d, P<0.001;hospitalization expenses:27 054(8 452) yuan versus 31 595(11 743) yuan, P=0.005〕 . Conclusions In the management of patients suffered from cholecystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis, both LC+LCBDE and ERCP/EST+LC are safe and effective. LC+LCBDE, especially primary closure after LCBDE, is associated with significantly less costs as compared with ERCP/EST+LC. Moreover, patients can be cured by LC+LCBDE through one-stage treatment with the protection of the papilla function and no limits to the amount or size of the choledocholithiasis. The LC+LCBDE is a preferable choice for the appropriate cases of cholecystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis.
Objective To study the clinical diagnosis and treatment of juxtapapillary duodenal diverticula with biliary deseases.Methods Eighteen duodenal diverticulum treated in our department in recent 5 years were retrospectivly analyzed, especially investigated the postcholecystectomy cases whose symptoms were continuing existence after operatoins. Articles about the surgical treatment were reviewed. Results The total of 18 duodenal diverticulum with 17 cases of juxtapapillary duodenal diverticulum were included in this study. The ages of 12 cases were over 50 years old. Sixteen cases(88.89%) presented biliary stones. Seven cases once had performed cholecystectomy or cholecystectomy plus choledochotomy,but symptoms persisted after operations. The duodenal diverticulum were found by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and hypotonic duodenography. Sixteen patients underwent surgical treatment with good effect. Conclusion The juxtapapillary duodenal diveticula has the close relationship with biliary stones. ERCP and hypotonic duodenogrphy are the most reliable methods to get the correct diagnosis. In case of recurrent common bile duct stones after operations or persisting billiary symptoms after cholecystectomy, the coexistence of juxtapapillary duodenal diverticulum should be ruled out. The surgical treatment is only considered for the duodenal diverticulum with complication.
ObjectiveTo explore how to select the suitable indications of ERCP for clinical diagnosis and treatment. MethodsThe data of patients treated by ERCP between January 2005 and December 2009 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsTotal 221 patients received ERCP, among whom 99 (45%) cases of common bile duct stones, 44 (20%) cases of malignant tumor, 9 (4%) cases of papilla narrow, 45 (20%) cases were negative, and 24 (11%) cases were failed. It had the trend that the number of the patients received ERCP reduced year by year. The postoperative complication rate was 11% (25 cases), including 15 cases of postoperative pancreatitis, 3 cases of bleeding, 5 cases of biliary duct infection, and 2 cases of basket stranded. ConclusionIn the modern medical condition, with the advancement of image and laparoscopy technology, we should select the diagnosis and treatment methods with the principles of no damage or less damage for patients, without unlimitedly broadening the clinical indications of ERCP.
Pancreatic duct stones are secondary to chronic pancreatitis while conventional medical treatment is always not effective. Due to the advantages of less trauma, simple operation, and fewer complications, since endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combined with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) was first used in the treatment of pancreatic duct stones in 1987, the treatment method has been continuously improved for more than 30 years, and has experienced the development process from being questioned to becoming the first-line treatment for pancreatic duct stones in multinational guidelines nowadays. However, with the rapid development of science and technology today, the method of ERCP combined with extracorporeal lithotripsy is also facing the challenges of many other treatment methods.
Objective To analyze the clinical features, common etiologies, prevention measurements of recurrent acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods The clinical characteristics and imaging examination data of 43 patients with recurrent AP were analyzed retrospectively, which was compared with the results of 258 patients with primary AP. The recurrence etiologies were analyzed. Results There were no significant differences on the fever, jaundice, abdominal pain relief time, pancreatic local complications, and ratio of severe AP between two groups (P>0.05). Comparion of etiologies between recurrent AP and primary AP, cholecystitis and diet factor (alcoholic) had priority in patients with primary AP (P=0.038, P=0.006, respectively), but the hyperlipidemic, duodenal nipple disease, and small stone in the common bile duct were the major etiologies in patients with recurrent AP (P=0.007, P=0.008, respectively). No relapse was found within the follow up for 3 months to 2 years (the average time was 14.2 months). Conclusion Find out the exact etiology and performe correct therapy are the key to the treatment and prevention of recurrent AP.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of somatostatin and the analogue-octreotide in preventing post-ERCP pancreatitis. Methods We searched Cochrane Clinical Trial Register (Issue 1, April, 2004 ), MEDLINE (1966- April, 2004), EMBASE (1985- April, 2004), CBM disc (1970- April, 2004) and The Clinical Trial Register of Chinese Evidence-Based Medicine Center and handsearched the related journals to identify Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT)of somatostatin and octreotide in post-endoscopic retrograde chnlangiopancreatography pancreatitis(PEP)prevention. Systematic review was conducted using the method recommended by The Cochrane Collaboration. Results Thirty-one trials involving 4 728 patients undergoing ERCP were included. Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis [ OR 0.33, 95% CI 0. 20 to 0. 54; P =0. 000 01 ; NNT =13] was significantly reduced by somatostatin. Octreotide could only reduce the incidence of hyperamylasemia [ OR 0. 54, 95% CI 0. 38 to 0. 77 ; P =0. 000 7 ]. The inci- dence of PEP, severe PEP and post-ERCP abdominal pain could not be reduced by octreotide. Conclusions Somatostatin can prevent post-ERCP pancreatitis. Four trials are of high quality in the 12 included studies and the results are consistent with the sensitive-analysis, so it is credible to some extent. However, existing evidence does not support that octreotide can reduce the incidence of PEP, so it is not recommended for this indication. Sensitive-analysis even showed that octreotide could increase the incidence of PEP. Therefore, whether it is necessary to carry out further clinical trials should be considered with caution.
Objective To investigate clinical application and safety evaluation of sedative demulcent anesthesia in therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).Methods Totally 1660 patients underwent ERCP at the First Hospital of Lanzhou University were prospectively divided into two groups: venous sedative demulcent group (n=800, using sufentanil and midazolam and propofol continuing infusion) and conventional sedative demulcent group (n=860, using common medicine). The heart rate (HR), respiration (R), blood pressure (BP) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) of pre-anesthesia, post-anesthesia, during operation and after analepsia in every group were detected. The narcotism was evaluated by Ramsaymin grading method and the related adverse reactions such as cough, restlessness, harmful memory, and abdominal pain after operation were recorded. Results Compared with conventional sedative demulcent group, vital signs of patients in venous sedative demulcent group were more stable. For postoperative adverse reactions, abdominal pain, abdominal distension and nausea and vomiting were respectively 4.4%(35/800), 2.6%(21/800) and 3.6%(29/800) in venous sedative demulcent group, which were respectively higher of the incidence of 36.3%(312/860), 49.0%(421/860) and 53.0%(456/860) in conventional sedative demulcent group (P<0.01). The postoperative satisfaction and adverse reactions recall between venous sedative demulcent group and conventional sedative demulcent group was respectively significant different (96.9% vs. 2.9%, 4.8% vs. 97.9%, P<0.01). Conclusion Sufentanil and midazolam and propofol continuing infusion have good effect of sedative demulcent anesthesia, which can be widely used.
