Whether all patients undergoing cholecystectomy following an episode of biliary pancreatitis require direct common bile duct evaluation is controversial. We hypothesized such evaluation can be omitted safely among select patients at low risk for choledocholithiasis.
One hundred forty-eight patients undergoing cholecystectomy for biliary pancreatitis (January 1995-December 2005) met the following inclusion criteria: (1) no preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP); (2) normal or decreasing liver function tests (LFTs) preoperatively; and (3) no ductal dilation on non-invasive preoperative imaging. Group I had intraoperative cholangiography (IOC, n = 27); group II did not (n = 121).
No differences between groups I and II were evident in postoperative retained-stone related events: recurrent pancreatitis (11% vs 8%, P = .7), cholangitis (0% in both groups), and asymptomatic LFT elevation (0% vs 3%, P > .99).
Direct ductal evaluation can be omitted safely in select patients undergoing cholecystectomy for biliary pancreatitis who are at low risk for choledocholithiasis.
在胆源性胰腺炎发作后接受胆囊切除术的所有患者是否都需要直接评估胆总管存在争议。我们假设在胆总管结石风险较低的特定患者中可以安全地省略这种评估。
1995年1月至2005年12月期间,148例因胆源性胰腺炎接受胆囊切除术的患者符合以下纳入标准:(1)术前未进行内镜逆行胆管造影(ERC)或内镜逆行胰胆管造影(ERCP);(2)术前肝功能检查(LFT)正常或下降;(3)术前无创影像学检查未发现胆管扩张。第一组进行术中胆管造影(IOC,n = 27);第二组未进行(n = 121)。
第一组和第二组在术后结石残留相关事件方面无明显差异:复发性胰腺炎(11%对8%,P = 0.7)、胆管炎(两组均为0%)和无症状LFT升高(0%对3%,P > 0.99)。
对于因胆源性胰腺炎接受胆囊切除术且胆总管结石风险较低的特定患者,可以安全地省略直接胆管评估。
