This retrospective study in eight surgically treated patients with obstructive jaundice due to biliary tumor thrombus in a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was performed to evaluate the role of surgical intervention. All biliary tumor thrombi were confirmed preoperatively or
This study aimed to evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes of hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with bile duct tumor thrombus (BDTT), including cases with obstructive jaundice.
The study reviewed 42 HCC patients with BDTT, including six patients who needed preoperative biliary
BACKGROUND
The clinical utility of EUS-FNA is debated in patients with obstructive jaundice (ObJ) because of a very high pretest probability of pancreatobiliary malignancy (PBM) and biliary stent-induced inflammation that can potentially confound EUS-FNA diagnosis. EUS-FNA also has lower accuracy in
BACKGROUND
Jaundice is frequent in patients with gallbladder cancer (GBC) and indicates advanced disease and, according to some teams, precludes routine operative exploration. The present study was designed to re-assess the prognostic value of jaundice in patients with GBC.
METHODS
Patients with GBC
OBJECTIVE
Study of the effectiveness and morbidity of palliative treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice with metallic biliary endoprosthesis compared to surgical palliation.
METHODS
Retrospective review.
METHODS
35 patients with non-resectable neoplasms causing jaundice were treated with
Gallbladder cancer (CaGB) in the subcontinent belongs to low socioeconomic status, and at the time of diagnosis, a large number is unresectable or inoperable so the palliative treatment remains the only option. In the present study, attempt was made to see the effect and safety profile of
A 78-year-old man admitted with clinical jaundice and pelvic pain had a total bilirubin level of 6.56 mg/dL, an alkaline phosphatase level of 855 U/L, and a prostate specific antigen (PSA) level of 9996 ng/mL. A computed tomogram demonstrated marked retroperitoneal, peripancreatic, periceliac, and
A 68-year-old male was admitted to our hospital because of jaundice. Laboratory examinations revealed elevated total bilirubin (23.4 mg/dl) and hepatobiliary enzymes levels. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography showed no abnormal finding in the liver and biliary ducts. Abdominal imaging
Two cases of obstructive jaundice due to advanced gastric cancer were treated with intravenous administration of cisplatinum. The first case was a 46-year-old female who had undergone gastrojejunostomy 5 months earlier because of Borrmann type 3 gastric cancer. The tumor involved the head of the
A 64-year-old male with fatigue and icterus was referred to our hospital. Computed tomography(CT)demonstrated multiple liver metastases and colonoscopic examination revealed advanced rectal cancer, which was diagnosed as moderately- differentiated adenocarcinoma without KRAS mutation. His serum
The prognosis of patients with advanced colorectal cancer with icterus is dismally poor, and adequate chemotherapy for these patients has not been established yet. A 59-year-old male with fatigue, anorexia and icterus with serum total bilirubin 9.7 mg/dL was referred to our institution. He was
A 51 year old male patient with a history of chronic alcohol consumption and recurrent pancreatitis was referred to our hospital with jaundice, epigastric pain, severe diarrhoea and weight loss of 28 kg within the last 12 months. A CT scan of the abdomen 4 months before admission had shown a
OBJECTIVE
We reviewed the medical records of patients with obstructive jaundice caused by the local recurrence of gastric cancer to clarify the role of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD).
METHODS
Eleven patients with a mean age of 60.1 years (range: 51-71 years) underwent PTBD because
A 33-year-old woman with a history of intravenous cocaine abuse presented with fatigue, nausea, and jaundice. Serologic testing revealed a positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody and HCV RNA. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging/magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography showed a partially
The care of 40 patients with primary liver cancer with obstructive jaundice treated with liver puncture bile drainage or biliary stent implantation was reported. Treated with the interventional therapy, patients were observed closely to identify symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy and pain; diet care
