View clinical trials related to Bile Duct Injury.
Filter by:Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most common gastrointestinal surgeries. However, it can be technically complex in those patients diagnosed with acute cholecystitis who present severe inflammation or fibrosis, with bile duct injury being one of its main complications. The use of fluorescence cholangiography through the use of indocyanine green allows the identification of extrahepatic biliary structures, facilitating dissection and reducing the risk of bile duct lesions. Better visualization of the bile duct allows reducing the conversion rate to open surgery, as well as operating time. The main objective is to assess a decrease in operating time in acute cholecystitis undergoing emergency surgery, to which indocyanine green is administered preoperatively. Randomized, prospective, controlled, multicenter clinical trial of two groups of patients diagnosed with acute cholecystitis and requiring urgent cholecystectomy. The control group includes 220 patients who undergo urgent laparoscopic cholecystectomy according to the usual technique without the administration of indocyanine green, and the intervention group includes 220 patients who undergo urgent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis with the administration of indocyanine green preoperatively. Study led by the Parc Taulí University Hospital in Sabadell.
Cholecystectomy is one the most frequent laparoscopic procedures worldwide. It is a safe and effective operation but intraoperative bile duct injury remains a relevant complication with serious consequences for the patient. Most of the complications occur due to a lack of knowledge of the anatomy or misidentification of the cystic duct. Thus, the study of the anatomy is a cornerstone of a successful procedure and the preoperative magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a way to preoperatively determine relevant structures to avoid intraoperative incidents. This trial has been designed to assess the effect of preoperative virtual reality training based on MRCP on intraoperative performance and outcome.
The aim of the trial is to compare the routes of administration of indocyanine green (ICG) during laparoscopic cholocystectomy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the magnetic compressive anastomosis has a better outcomes than traditional manual anastomosis on bilioenteric anastomosis.
Post-surgical biliary strictures are common especially after cholecystectomy. Standard treatment involves the performance of multiple procedures over a 1 year period at least using several plastic stents to achieve permanent dilatation of these strictures. Metallic stents have the theoretical benefit of absence of need of multiple sessions. These strictures however are frequently very close to the hilum and thus previously considered a contraindication for insertion of metallic stents for the fear of occlusion of the contralateral ducts. Metallic stent migration is also a frequent problem. The use of a metallic stent that is short and completely intraductal, in theory, should reduce the risk of stent migration. This is a randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of a short metallic intraductal stent to the conventional treatment which is multiple plastic stents. In cases with a stricture reaching or close to the hilum a technique is used to avoid obstruction of the contralateral ducts which is insertion of a 7 French plastic stent alongside the metallic stent.
Open label prospective, non-randomised proof of principle study assessing the use of methylene blue fluorescence cholangiography.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the magnetic compressive anastomosis has a better outcomes than traditional manual anastomosis on superior bilioenteric anastomosis.
