Objective To study the etiology of primary intrahepatic stones. MethodsThe literatures in the recent years on the etiology of intrahepatic stone were revieved. Results The formation of intrahepatic stone mainly caused by bacteria infection, parasitic infestation, bile stasis, congenital anatomic abnormalities and immunoreaction of bile tract. Further investigation found that metabolic, low protein diet, environment and ethnic factors and gene mutation were considered to play important roles in the formation of the intrahepatic stone. Conclusion The formation of intrahepatic stone is complex and are result of multiple factors. It closely related to the infection and stasis of the bile duct.
Objective To evaluate effectiveness and safety of electronic choledochoscopy in treatment of intrahepatic bile duct stones. Methods From July 2013 to February 2016, 280 patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones in the Department of General Surgery of the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong Academy of Medical Sciences were selected as the research objects. All the patients were randomly divided into a choledochoscopy treatment group and a conventional treatment group by envelope principle method. There were 140 patients in each group. The safety and short- and long-term effectiveness were compared in these two groups. This study was approved by the ethics committee of the hospital. Results ① The age, gender, body mass index, course of disease, and location of stone had no significant differences in these two groups (P>0.05). ② The operations and the net stones were successfully completed in all the patients. The operative time was shorter, the blood loss was less, the incision length was smaller, the postoperative anal exhaust time was earlier, and the hospitalization time was shorter in the choledochoscopy treatment group as compared with the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). ③ The total postoperative complication rate on day 14 in the choledochoscopy treatment group was 2.9% (4/140), which was significantly lower than that in the conventional treatment group (11.4%, 16/140, P<0.05). ④ The curative excellent and good rates was 97.9% and 85.0% in the choledochoscopy treatment group and conventional treatment group respectively, which was a significant difference in these two groups (P<0.05). ⑤ The postoperative serum ALT and AST values on month 6 in the choledochoscopy treatment group were significantly lower than those in the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). Conclusion Electronic choledochoscopy in treatment of intrahepatic bile duct stones could promote rehabilitation of patient, reduce incidence of postoperative complications, and it is conducive to promoting recovery of liver function and improving follow-up effect.

Objective To observe the effect of gefitinib on expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in bile duct epithelial cells, and the feasibility of inhibiting hyperplasia of bile duct epithelial cells with gefitinib. Methods Sixty-one patients with hepatolithiasis having to be in hospital for surgery from the First People’s Hospital of Shuangliu county were selected, with 25-65 years old, average 46.92 years. The patients were randomly divided into therapy group and control group. There were 30 cases in therapy group, in which fine duct was placed on lesion bile duct during operation, and through whom gefitinib solution was perfused after operation. There were 31 cases in control group with only T tube drainage after operation. The bile duct sample was obtained respectively during the operation and 6 weeks and 12 weeks after operation. The histology and expression change of EGFR were observed by HE staining, immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR method respectively. Results There were no significant differences in pathohistology changes of bile duct and the EGFR protein and mRNA expression between therapy group and control group during operation. The hyperplasia of epithelium mucosae and submucosal gland in the therapy group were obviously decreased as compared with those in control group, the EGFR mRNA and protein expression in therapy group were weaker than those of control group （Plt;0.05） 6 weeks and 12 weeks after gefitinib treatment. Conclusion EGFR is overexpressed in the chronic proliferative cholangitis, and continuously local application of gefitinib after operation can specifically interrupt the activation and expression of EFGR and then effectively inhibit the hyperplasia of bile duct epithelial cells.
目的探讨肝内胆管结石合并肝胆管癌的临床诊断和治疗经验。 方法回顾性分析我院手术治疗28例肝内胆管结石合并肝胆管癌的病例资料。结果本组28例占同期肝内胆管结石病例的6.7%。术前各类影像学检查发现癌灶17例，5例获细胞学检查确诊。术中7例经快速组织活检证实。另4例系术后确诊。肿瘤多为腺癌，位于肝门胆管18例，肝内胆管9例，肝内、肝门部广泛浸润1例。根治性肿瘤切除8例，获随访6例，平均生存23个月； 姑息性肿瘤切除8例，获随访6例，平均生存11个月； 仅行外引流者7例，其中3例于术后2周内死亡，3例术后9个月内死亡，1例生存4个月后失访。结论长期肝内胆管结石刺激及继发感染是肝胆管癌发生的重要因素。联合应用影像学检查结合病理活检获得早期诊断和选择合理的根治性肝切除术是提高疗效的有效措施。
Objective To investigate feasibility and curative effect of ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy in treatment of complicated hepatolithiasis. Methods The data of 42 patients with complicated hepatolithiasis from June 2012 to June 2017 in the Hepatobiliary Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were treated with ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy, including the first stage of dilation and drainage and the second stage choledochoscopy. Results The operations of the 42 patients were successfully performed. No case was converted to the conventional laparotomy. The puncture sites of 10 cases were at the right intrahepatic bile duct, 25 cases were at the left intrahepatic bile duct, and 7 cases were at the bilateral intrahepatic bile duct. The residual stones were removed by two stage choledochoscopy in the 31 patients, 11 patients had the residual stones. After the first stage, there were 4 cases of the bile duct hemorrhage, 8 cases of the cholangitis, 1 case of the pleural effusion and 1 case of the infection, 2 cases of the postoperative drainage tube shedding. After the second stage, there were 3 cases of the cholangitis and 3 cases of the postoperative drainage tube shedding. The stones of the 10/31 patients with stone removal occurred and the diseases of 9/11 patients with stone residual were stable during the following-up of (18.6±7.8) months. Conclusion Ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy including the first stage of dilation and drainage plus the second stage choledochoscopy is safe and effective in treatment of complex intrahepatic bile duct stones, it is an effective supplement to traditional surgery.
ObjectiveTo summarize experience of multidisciplinary team (MDT) in diagnosis and treatment of rare patient with circumscriptus intrahepatic pneumatosis and explore its clinical differentiation with other common types of intrahepatic pneumatosis.MethodThe clinicopathologic data of rare patient with circumscriptus intrahepatic pneumatosis admitted to the Occupational Disease Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsA 60-year old female patient was admitted to this hospital with " abdominal pain and septic shock”. After the MDT discussion and analysis, the treatment regimens were decided as follows: the early anti-shock treatment, corrections of electrolyte disorder and hypoalbuminemia, platelet transfusion, ultrasound guided percutaneous catheter drainage (200 mL gas and 10 mL pus, the pneumonic Klebsiella which proved by the bacterial culture). The drainage tube was removed on postoperative day 6. After 5 d of the anti-inflammatory treatment with imipenem and statin sodium injection, it was downgraded to the cefazoxime (the third-generation cephalosporin) injection, and the anti-inflammatory treatment was continued for 6 d as well as the blood glucose was controlled. On the 7th day after the treatment, the right upper abdomen pain was relieved and without positive sign. The abdominal CT showed the localized pneumoconiosis in the right lobe of the liver was completely absorbed. The result of laboratory examination was basically normal. The patient was discharged on the 12th day after the operation and had no discomfort symptoms on month 1 after the operation. The abdominal CT showed the liver was not abnormal.ConclusionSurgeons should be fully aware of various types of intrahepatic pneumatosis so as to sufficiently investigate pathophysiological clue of disease to improve cure rate and reduce complications.
