Filter by:The study is designed to assess the awareness of the SAGES Safe Cholecystectomy Program among polish surgeons, as well as the degree of implementation of this Program during laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed in Poland. It also gathers the opinion of polish surgeons on usefulness of each of the SAGES Safe Cholecystectomy Rules
The present study aims at analyzing the learning curve for fundus first with the ultrasonic tissue coagulation dissection technique in elective cholecystectomy. Patients included in the study are planned for an elective cholecystectomy, on the basis of the gallstone disease. All participating surgeons have experience of the traditional approach with electrocautery. The operation time as well as the surgeons own evaluation of difficulty and performance are noted. Selected films are analyzed by independent surgeons with experience of the fundus first technique. The Swedish registry of gallstone surgery and ERCP (GallRiks) are used to record the intra and postoperative complication rate.
Randomized, prospective study evaluating efficacy and safety of Goff transpancreatic septotomy vs. double wire technique for achieving biliary access in patients who fail initial cannulation at ERCP.
Bile duct stones is a common biliary tract disease, which is characterized by high morbidity and frequent recurrence. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an effective therapy for common bile duct stones, and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) which associated with recurrent cholangiolithiasis often carried out on difficult intubation or extracting stones, probably due to enhanced reflux of intestinal contents that changes the microenvironment. Patients with cholangiolithiasis were consecutively recruited and their bile was collected intra-operatively for high-throughput experiments. Pyrosequencing of 16S ribosomal RNA gene was performed to characterize the microbiota in the bile and other body fluids. A liquid chromatography mass spectrometry-based method was used to profile bile composition. Clinical manifestation, microbiome, and bile composition were compared between patients with or without recurrent of bile duct stones. The aim of our study was to identify the impact of microbiomes on the recurrent of bile duct stones after ERCP+EST therapy.
Comparing the use of surgical robotics during a Cholecystectomy, comparing different platforms and approaches (multi port verses single port).
This study aim to evaluated the effectiveness of Digital SpyGlass Cholangioscopy to facilitate common bile duct stone removal without fluoroscopy
This study evaluates life quality of patients who were diagnosed with gallbladder benign disease through Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI) scale. Researchers will establish a database including 20,000 patients. Through observational followup and statistic analysis，identifing a model or scale to standardized surgical indication, help surgeons and patients determine the best treatment decision.
This study evaluates the clinical application of cholangiojejunostomy in the surgical treatment of cholelithiasis with Moderate dilatation of common bile duct. Half of participants will receive hepatectomy, cholangiojejunostomy and T-tube Drainage, while the other half will receive hepatectomy and T-tube Drainage.
Endoscopic bile duct stone (BDS) removal is a well-established treatment; however, the preference for basket or balloon catheters for extraction is operator-dependent It is reported that complete endoscopic treatment with a single catheter is more likely when choosing a balloon catheter over a basket catheter for extraction of BDSs≤10mm. However, a study comparing the two catheter types in patients with periampullary diverticulum has not been performed, and there is no strong basis on which to recommend the balloon catheter as a first-line stone removal device. The investigators therefore conducted a multicenter prospective randomized trial to compare catheter performance in patients with periampullary diverticulum.
Collection of PROMs (Patient Reported Outcome Measures) data from patients before and after an operation to remove their gallbladder for the treatment of symptomatic gallstones. This PROMs data will provide information to clinicians and trusts about the health gain following this type of surgery and the impact on patient's quality of life. This information will be collected by the implementation of the patient Website aboutmyop.org. This will not only allow patients to complete quality of life (PROMs) questionnaires online, but will also allow them to access information on their condition and necessary surgery, in addition to post-operative follow-up.
