Filter by: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.
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
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.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the region-specific cause of gallbladder stone incidence in Jeju Self-Governing Province, Korea.
The Study is designed to compare the effectiveness of Near Infrared Fluorescence Cholangiography (NIFC) to standard white light imaging (WLI) in visualizing and identifying the main biliary and hepatic structures (Cystic Duct, Right Hepatic Duct, Common Hepatic Duct, Common Bile Duct, Cystic-CBD junction, Cystic-Gallbladder junction and any Accessory Ducts) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aim is to demonstrate that NIFC performs better than standard white light (WLI) alone in visualizing and identifying extra-hepatobiliary structures (Cystic Duct, Right Hepatic Duct, Common Hepatic Duct, Common Bile Duct, Cystic-CBD junction, Cystic-Gallbladder junction, and any Accessory Ducts) before and after dissection during Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC).
Radiation exposure may put endoscopists at risk when performing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Although non-radiation endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography was reported in pregnant women in previous reports, it remains unclear whether endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is also effective and safe when endoscopists were not expose to radiation. This study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of nonradiation-to-endoscopist endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with complexity level I/II.
Cholecystectomy has been made with benign conditions usually. The aim of this study is to compare the macroscopic evaluations of the cholecystectomy specimens with it's histopathological examinations.
