Acute cholecystitis leading to gallbladder perforation is relatively common. However, transhepatic perforation of the gallbladder leading to biliary peritonitis is very rare. We present a rare case of biliary peritonitis caused by transhepatic perforation of the gallbladder.

Retroperitoneal biloma and accompanying bilioscrotum are very rare entities. A 49-year-old male patient underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedure with the preliminary diagnosis of stone-mud in the common bile duct. On the seventh day after the procedure, diffuse air densities observed around the duodenum and biliary stent protruding beyond the lumen in the non-contrast abdominal computed tomography examination were evaluated as duodenal perforation.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous transhepatic papillary balloon dilation (PTPBD) combined with flexible ureteroscopy-guided dual-frequency double-pulse ND:YAG (FREDDY) laser lithotripsy (PTPBD-FREDDY) for the treatment of giant (>1.5 cm diameter) common bile duct stones. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 26 patients with large-diameter difficult choledocholithiasis admitted to two medical centers from December 2017 to October 2021.

Background: Endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage is challenging because of the complexity of the procedure and high incidence of adverse events (AEs). To overcome these problems, endoscopic gallbladder stenting (EGBS) after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) can be effective, as it mitigates inflammation and adhesion.
Aim: To examine the benefits of EGBS after PTGBD to assess its efficacy and impact on AEs.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects but can lead to serious gastrointes complications. This report illustrates the management of an NSAID-induced penetrating gastric ulcer with subsequent postoperative hemorrhagic cholecystitis. A 68-year-old female with chronic NSAID use presented with epigastric pain and was diagnosed with a penetrating gastric ulcer extending into the retroperitoneum.

Purpose: This study aimed to present the institutional experience and algorithm for performing biliary interventions in liver transplant patients using the modified Hutson loop access (MHLA) and the impact of percutaneous endoscopy via the MHLA on these procedures.
Methods: Over 13 years, 201 MHLA procedures were attempted on 52 patients (45 liver transplants; 24 living and 21 deceased donors) for diagnostic (e.g.
