Segment III cholangiojejunostomy for carcinoma of the gallbladder.

Abstract:

:Jaundice in patients of advanced carcinoma of the gallbladder requires palliation for the distressing symptoms of pruritus and cholangitis. Intrahepatic segment III duct cholangiojejunostomy is a means for alleviating the obstruction with malignant porta block. The authors reviewed their experience with this procedure in 48 patients of carcinoma of the gallbladder. All patients had jaundice; pruritus was present in 44 (92%) and cholangitis in 14 (29%). The level of obstruction was determined preoperatively by percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography. In 32 patients the block was below the level of the bifurcation of the right and left ducts, and 16 patients had a block involving the confluence, isolating the two lobes of the liver. Following segment III cholangiojejunostomy, pruritus was relieved in all and cholangitis in 86% of patients. At the end of 6 weeks a significant fall in serum bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase levels was seen with both types of hilar obstruction. Varying degrees of pain relief was also noted in 75% of patients. Segment III biliary bypass is an effective, one-time, reliable means of palliation for carcinoma of the gallbladder with hilar obstruction. Its efficacy appears to depend on the duration and depth of the jaundice and on the anatomy of the biliary ductal system in the left hemiliver rather than on the type of hilar obstruction.
