AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focused on the surgical treatment outcomes for patients with advanced Mirizzi Syndrome (grades III and IV) over a period of 12 years.
  • The incidence of grades III and IV was low, with a preoperative diagnosis achieved in just over half of the cases, and the preferred surgical approach was biliodigestive derivation.
  • Follow-up results showed that half of the patients were asymptomatic, but there were also complications such as anastomotic stricures in some cases.

Article Abstract

Objective: : to evaluate the epidemiology and outcomes of surgical treatment of patients with Mirizzi Syndrome (MS) grades III and IV, the most advanced according to Csendes classification.

Methods: : we conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional study by reviewing records of thirteen patients with grades III and IV MS operated from December 2001 to September 2013, among the 3,691 cholecystectomies performed in the period.

Results: : the incidence of MS was 0.6% (23 cases) and grades III and IV amounted to 0.35% of this number. There was a predominance of type IV (12 cases). The preoperative diagnosis was possible in 53.8% of cases. The preferred approach was biliary-digestive derivation (10 cases), and "T" tube drainage with suture of the bile duct was the choice in three special occasions. Three patients had biliary fistula resolved with clinical management, and one coliperitoneum case required reoperation. In the outpatient follow-up of patients who underwent biliodigestive anastomosis (eight), 50% are asymptomatic, 25% had anastomotic stricture and 25% lost follow-up. The mean follow-up was 41.8 months.

Conclusion: : MS in advanced degrees has low incidence, preoperative diagnosis in only half of cases, and has the biliodigestive anastomosis as the best conduct, but not without morbidity.

Objetivo: avaliar a epidemiologia e os resultados do tratamento cirúrgico de doentes portadores de graus III e IV, mais avançados, da Síndrome de Mirizzi (SM) de acordo com a classificação de Csendes.

MÉtodos: estudo retrospectivo, de corte transversal através da revisão de prontuários de 13 pacientes portadores de graus III e IV da SM operados de dezembro de 2001 a setembro de 2013, entre 3691 colecistectomias realizadas neste período.

Resultados: a incidência da SM foi 0,6% (23 casos) e os graus III e IV perfizeram 0,35% deste número. Houve um predomínio de tipo IV (12 casos). O diagnóstico pré-operatório foi possível em 53,8% dos casos. A conduta preferencial foi derivação biliodigestiva (10 casos) e foi optado por drenagem com tubo "T" e sutura da via biliar em três ocasiões especiais. Três pacientes apresentaram fístula biliar resolvida com conduta expectante e um caso de coleperitônio necessitou reoperação. No seguimento ambulatorial dos pacientes que realizaram a anastomose biliodigestiva (oito), 50% estão assintomáticos, 25% apresentaram estenose da anastomose e 25% perderam seguimento. O tempo médio de acompanhamento foi 41,8 meses.

ConclusÃo: de incidência baixa e de diagnóstico pré-operatório em apenas metade dos casos, a SM em graus avançados tem na anastomose biliodigestiva sua melhor conduta, porém não isenta de morbimortalidade.
