AI Article Synopsis
- Complete transection and accidental ligation of the main bile duct during cholecystectomy are severe injuries that need additional surgery, as they can't be treated endoscopically.
- Leaks from a severed aberrant bile duct can potentially be treated with endoscopy, but these injuries are hard to identify, leading to delays in treatment.
- The text discusses 7 cases of patients who suffered from aberrant bile duct injuries after cholecystectomy and successfully received endoscopic treatment.
Article Abstract
Both complete transection and accidental ligation of the main bile duct because of a cholecystectomy are the injuries that are not amenable to endoscopic treatment and require an additional surgery. Leaks resulting from the severance of an aberrant bile duct may be treated endoscopically, although such injuries are difficult to be identified, thus resulting in treatment delays. Presented here are the details and follow-up results of 7 cases of patients with postcholecystectomy aberrant bile duct injuries, which were treated by endoscopic treatment.

Background: Biliary leakage is a serious complication of hepato-pancreato-biliary operations, increasing morbidity and mortality, and challenging clinicians.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the incidence of bilioenteric anastomotic leakage, treatment options, and their outcomes at a high-volume tertiary referral center.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the outcomes of patients who underwent biliary anastomosis formation between 2016 and 2021.

Bile duct injuries are a serious issue, and their surgical treatment carries the risk of morbidity and mortality. In selected cases, non-surgical treatments are possible, even for total strictures. We outline the technique and results of using magnetic compression anastomosis (MCA) to treat post-cholecystectomy bile duct stricture (PCBDS), in two female patients.

Backgrounds/aims: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) remains the most common therapeutic strategy used for cholecystocholedocholithiasis (CCL). Recently, single-stage ERCP + LC has gained popularity for treating CCL due to patient satisfaction and financial considerations. In this study, we aimed to compare the feasibility and efficacy of the two variants of single-stage ERCP + LC (starting with ERCP followed by LC versus starting with LC followed by ERCP) for treatment of CCL.

Background And Aims: Alcohol abuse is the most frequent precipitating factor of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). We aimed at developing an alcohol-induced ACLF model and dissecting its underlying molecular mechanisms.
Methods: ACLF was triggered by a single alcohol binge (5g/Kg) in a bile duct ligation (BDL) liver fibrosis murine model.
