The anomaly is characterized by the presence of two ducts鈥攗sually one main common bile duct and an accessory bile duct. We present one such case in a 7-year-old girl, where the proximal CBD divided into two separate channels for a short distance and re-united distally to open as a ...
Splenic and hepatic arterial blood flow abnormalities are common in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension, but the clinical significance of the splenic artery diameter and splenic artery internal diameter/proper hepatic artery internal diameter (S/P) ratio in those patients has not been clearl...
Several communications could be observed between the portal vein and hepatic artery. Conclusion Cholangiocytes of cirrhotic rats appear to be more tolerant to ischemia of bile duct than non-cirrhotic rats. This may be due to the protective role of arterioportal fistulas. 展开 ...
Background: It is difficult to judge whether abnormal findings in the distal common bile duct (CBD) and/or common channel, such as irregularity of the bile duct wall, on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are benign or malignancy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the...

Background The incidence of common bile duct (CBD) stones on intraoperative cholangiogram (IOC) after cholecystectomy ranges from 8% to 15%, but there is a high false positive rate. ERCP for stone removal is required after a positive IOC, but ERCP carries significant complications. It is ...
