EXTRA-HEPATIC BILIARY TRACT OBSTRUCTION…

3 forms?
1. = 2 common examples?
2. = 4 common examples?
3. = 1 common example?

A
  1. EXTRALUMINAL = OUTSIDE biliary system, usually from PANCREAS
    –> PANCREATITIS
    –> PANCREATIC NEOPLASIA
  2. INTRALUMINAL
    –> CHOLELITHIASIS = stones in GALLBLADDER
    –> GALLBLADDER MUCOCELE = from bile CONGEALING
    –> FB
    –> NEOPLASIA

Q

what PART of bile makes bile flow obstruction so bad?

what CAN happen if BILE OBSTRUCTED? (2)

A

the BILE SALTS make obstruction bad

what CAN happen?
1. BACTERIAL OVERGROWTH from SALT, usually GRAM NEGATIVE that can MAKE ENDOTOXINS that get absorbed

Q

ABDOMINAL ULTRASOUND IS BEST

4 things to see on ABDOMINAL US…

Q

BILE PERITONITIS…

is often a RESULT of…

3 causes? which is the most common?

A

is often a RESULT of EXTRA-HEPATIC BILIARY TRACT OBSTRUCTION causing BILE LEAKAGE into abdomen

3 causes?
1. TRAUMA like a PENETRATING WOUND
2. COMPLICATION after a SURGERY for BILIARY TRACT OBSTRUCTION
3. RUPTURED GALLBLADDER MUCOCELE from PRESSURE NECROSIS

Q

BILE PERITONITIS…

what CBC finding do we have?

2 BEST diagnostics?

WHAT parameter is considered DIAGNOSTIC for BILE PERITONITIS?

this disease is ALWAYS considered a….

A

on CBC = HYPERBILIRUBINEMIA

2 BEST diagnostics?
1. ABDOMINAL US
2. ABDOMINOCENTESIS & ANALYSIS

DIAGNOSTIC = If BILIRUBIN IN EFFUSION is ≥ 2X BILIRUBIN in SERUM

ALWAYS considered a SURGICAL EMERGENCY!

Q

BILE in peritoneum is ____-____ & makes ____ EVEN ____ when it’s there

if VERY SEVERE, might have to…

A

PRO-INFLAMMATORY, PERITONITIS, WORSE

if VERY SEVERE, might have to OPEN ABDOMEN & DRAIN

17
Q

how do we ACCESS biliary structures via INCISION?

need ability to have good ____

lighting?

pack LAP sponges….

A

ACCESS biliary structures = LAPAROTOMY from XIPHOID to PUBIS –> HUGE INCISION

need ability to have good RETRACTION

LIGHTING should be EXCELLENT because BILIARY SYSTEM SITS UNDER DIAPHRAGM

pack lap sponges BETWEEN DIAPHRAGM & LIVER

18
Q

BILE DUCT sits ___-___ cm ____ from ____

A

3-6 cm, CAUDAL, PYLORUS

19
Q

CHOLECYSTOTOMY

= definition

can be used in WHAT dz?

commonality? why?

A

= ENTERING the GALLBLADDER & CLOSING IT BACK UP

can be used to REMOVE CHOLELITHS

RARELY performed! because if it DOESN’T HEAL FROM SX, LEAKAGE IS LIKELY

20
Q

CHOLEDOCHOTOMY

= definition

what DZ can we do this for?

A

= making incision INTO COMMON BILE DUCT

if STONES in COMMON BILE DUCT

21
Q

CHOLECYSTECTOMY

commonality?

= definition?

usually done after ___

procedure? (three, start with WHERE gallbladder is & end with where we ligate)

A

COMMON procedure

= REMOVAL of GALLBLADDER

usually done after RUPTURE

procedure?
1. GALLBLADDER sits in FOSSA OF LIVER, so DISSECT LIVER OUT
2. DISSECT liver out to CYSTIC DUCT
3. and LIGATE JUST BELOW GALLBLADDER before the HEPATIC DUCTS empty into COMMON BILE DUCT

22
Q

CHOLECYSTOENTEROSTOMY

= definition

example of DZ?

procedure? (2)

requires a HEALTHY…

A

= trying to DIVERT bile AROUND and BYPASS COMMON BILE DUCT

EXAMPLE dz?
–> LARGE, NON-RESECTABLE PANCREATIC MASS that causes COMPRESSION/OBSTRUCTION of common bile duct?

procedure?
1. make a HOLE in GALLBLADDER
2. connect to OPENING in JEJUNUM or DUODENUM

requires a HEALTHY GALLBLADDER

23
Q

CHOLEDOCHAL TUBE STENTING

= definition/used for…

can also be used for ____ to prevent FORMATION of ____ or ____ tissue

EVENTUALLY, the body will ____ ____ sutures

A

= used for TEMPORARY OCCLUSION of BILE and PUT SOMETHING IN BILE DUCT TO KEEP IT OPEN/DRAIN until we RESOLVE UNDERLYING CAUSE OF OBSTRUCTION

can also be used for REPAIR of bile duct to prevent FORMATION of STRICTURE or SCAR TISSUE

EVENTUALLY, the body will BREAK DOWN SUTURES

24
Q

CHOLECYSTOSTOMY TUBE

can be placed WHAT 2 ways?

can be used as… (2)

what does this help relieve?

commonality? why? (2 reasons)

A

can be placed…
1. SURGICALLY
2. PERCUTANEOUSLY –> from BODY WALL into GALLBLADDER

can be used as…
1. PRIMARY treatment
2. or ADJUNCT TO SURGERY

can help relieve BILIARY TRACT OBSTRUCTION

RARE because we can cause…
1. BILE LEAKAGE
2. BILE PERITONITIS

25
Q

why should we do CULTURE & SENSITIVITY for ABDOMINAL EFFUSION?

A

can often have concurrent BACTERIAL infection

26
Q

when doing BILIARY surgery, should also consider adding a ____ TUBE because…

A

FEEDING TUBE because patient OFTEN VERY SICK

27
Q

POST-OP MANAGEMENT of BILIARY Sx..

sometimes patients spend time in ____ after

5 managements we can do?

A

ICU

5 managements?
1. continued FLUID therapy
2. MONITOR electrolytes/acid-base
3. NUTRITION via FEEDING TUBE
4. ANTIBIOTIC therapy if C&S results require
5. +/- OPEN ABDOMINAL DRAINAGE if CHRONIC BILE PERITONITIS

28
Q

7 POST-OP COMPLICATIONS of BILIARY sx?

what is the MOST COMMON complication?

A
  1. LEAKAGE of bile –> MOST COMMON, THIN wall of gallbladder/common bile duct
  2. PERITONITIS
  3. HEMORRHAGE
  4. PANCREATITIS from manipulation
  5. RE-OBSTRUCTION of biliary tree from underlying PATHOLOGY
  6. ASCENDING CHOLANGIOHEPATITIS from BACTERIA in DUODENUM
  7. SEPSIS
29
Q

LEAKAGE of bile is most common in WHAT dz?

A

BILE PERITONITIS

30
Q

what PROCEDURE is likely to cause ASCENDING CHOLANGIOHEPATITIS?

why?

A

CHOLECYSTOENTEROSTOMY

because it CONNECTS GALLBLADDER to DUODENUM or JEJUNUM, so ENTERIC BACTERIA CAN CAUSE INFECTION

31
Q

PROGNOSIS for BILIARY Sx is ___ IF…

BUT…

A

GOOD if SURVIVE THE PERIOPERATIVE PERIOD

but DURING PERIOPERATIVE PERIOD, MORTALITY & COMPLICATIONS HIGH RATE
