At the instance of a 30-year-old female patient a casuistic contribution to the differential diagnosis of the so-called "postcholecystectomy syndrome" by means of ERC is given. On condition after cholecystectomy an amputation neuroma had again led to colics. Amputation neuromas are rare, but not unknown causes for complaints after operations at the bile ducts. The origin of such a neuroma at the extrahepatic bile ducts is discussed.

Exploring the effects of gut microbiota on cholangiocarcinoma progression by patient-derived organoids.

Background: Recent research indicates a role of gut microbiota in development and progression of life-threatening diseases such as cancer. Carcinomas of the biliary ducts, the so-called cholangiocarcinomas, are known for their aggressive tumor biology, implying poor prognosis of affected patients. An impact of the gut microbiota on cholangiocarcinoma development and progression is plausible due to the enterohepatic circulation and is therefore the subject of scientific debate, however evidence is still lacking.

Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma (h-CCA) originates from the epithelial cells, which characters as longitudinal growth along the bile ducts and invasion of peripheral vascular nerves. Due to the tumours insidious progression and usually become advanced stage disease at presentation, patients' mortality could parallel incidence rates. For patients who are not amenable to resection, systemic therapy and palliative treatment become the way to go.

Background/aims: Pathological evaluation is crucial for diagnosing biliary lesions and determining appropriate treatment strategies. However, tissue sampling via the transpapillary route can be difficult. In this study, we aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of a novel tapered-tip sheath system for tissue sampling from biliary strictures.

BACKGROUND Obstructive jaundice is a common surgical issue caused by obstruction in the bile ducts, which can result from factors such as stones or cancers in the main bile duct. This study aimed to investigate the effects of carvacrol, a compound known for its strong antioxidant properties, on intestinal damage, liver damage, and bacterial translocation in an animal model of obstructive jaundice. METHODS The study utilized six groups of six Wistar Albino rats each.
