Sclerosing cholangitis is a rare but dreadful complication of liver hydatid surgery. Almost all scolocidal agents are associated clinically or experimentally with this complication. Cetrimide-chlorhexidine combination is the most potent scolocidal agent, and this study was designed to examine its effect on the hepato-pancreatico-biliary system. Forty Wistar-albino rats were divided into two groups. 0.5% cetrimide-0.05% chlorhexidine was injected into the biliary tract of study group animals and 0.9% saline ( NaCl ) into the control group through a 3-mm duodenotomy. The animals were sacrificed after 90 days and histopathological examination of the liver, biliary tract, and pancreas was performed 90 days after the biliary injection. The histopathological examination showed that the lesions ranged from focal necrosis to sclerosing cholangitis to liver cirrhosis. Focal necrosis and eosinophilic inflammation were observed in all rats in the study group. The changes in the liver, biliary tract, and pancreas of the study group animals were significantly more severe than those in the control group (p < 0.05). This experimental study confirms the deleterious effect of another scolocidal agents on the hepato-pancreatico-biliary system. Although it is a very effective scolocidal agent, it should not be used in the presence of a duct biliary-cyst communication.

Indocyanine Green (ICG) fluorescence-guided surgery (I-FIGS) is increasingly being used in hepato-pancreatico-biliary (HPB) surgery. However, the true benefit of I-FIGS, the optimum dosing, and the timing of ICG administration still need to be determined. To conduct future research studies in the above areas, it is essential to understand the current I-FIGS practices among surgeons.

Timely diagnosis and management of pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) is of paramount importance to improve survival. The Indian Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition invited national and international experts to identify and review important management and research questions. These covered the definition, age appropriate stepwise workup for the etiology, non-invasive diagnosis and management of cerebral edema, prognostic scores, criteria for listing for liver transplantation (LT) and bridging therapies in PALF.

Introduction: Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the only potentially curative treatment for pancreatic head adenocarcinoma. This study aimed to determine the short-term outcomes of PD performed over 1 year at a newly established hepato-pancreatico-biliary unit in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan.
Material And Methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained hospital information system (HIS) was undertaken of all patients referred to the unit between May 2021 and August 2022.

Background: The concept of positive health (PH) supports an integrated approach for patients by taking into account six dimensions of health. This approach is especially relevant for patients with chronic disorders. Chronic gastrointestinal and hepato-pancreatico-biliary (GI-HPB) disorders are among the top-6 of the most prevalent chronically affected organ systems.
