Rapid weight loss following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) for the treatment of obesity can increase the incidence of cholelithiasis formation. Nevertheless, routine simultaneous cholecystectomy at the time of bariatric surgery remains controversial. However, in case of delayed occurrence of
Evaluation of the prevalance of cholelithiasis, choledocholithiasis and there management after sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass and mini gastric bypass in Indian bariatric patients.
We did a retrospective analysis of our bariatric patient from January 2007 to December 2013 (n = 1397), for
Choledocholithiasis may be treated following an endoscopic approach or by laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE). Stone recurrence following endoscopic management has been extensively investigated. We analyze the risk factors associated with stone recurrence following Objectives: Two-stage treatment of common bile duct stones by Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-Pancreatography and subsequent laparoscopic cholecystectomy is well established. In many cases multiple procedures are needed before clearance of the common bile duct is obtained. This study aimed to
During a 7 year period, 200 consecutive morbidly obese patients underwent a standardized gastric exclusion procedure. Group A was composed of the first 120 patients and Group B of the last 80 patients. In Group A, 22 patients had undergone a previous cholecystectomy and 12 patients had a
OBJECTIVE
Bile duct stones that cannot be removed endoscopically are still a challenge in interventional gastroenterology. Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) with subsequent endoscopic extraction of residual fragments is an established treatment option if other endoscopic means are not
Indications for performing cholecystectomy simultaneously with a gastric bariatric operation remain controversial. The extremes are to always perform cholecystectomy or to perform cholecystectomy only when there are palpable stones or the gallbladder is grossly diseased. Since 1975, 136
BACKGROUND
Single-stage laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) may represent an additional surgical option for morbid obesity.
METHODS
We performed a retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database of LSG performed from November 2004 to April 2007 as a one-stage primary restrictive
OBJECTIVE
to determine the incidence, frequency of risk factors, diagnostic aspects (clinics, biochemical, and images) and therapeutic aspects of the choledocholithiasis.
METHODS
Descriptive and prospective analysis of 51 patients who signed informed consent for study of choledocholithiasis by ERCP
Levonorgestrel uterine implants are accepted as a safe and efficacious method of contraception. One of the two major health side effects in a large controlled study of subcutaneous hormonal implants with levonorgestrel was a significant increase in gallbladder disease. Gallbladder hypomotility is
Background: Obesity is a complex chronic disease, which represents a severe and growing health issue all over the world. Bariatric surgery is an option when medical treatments failed. The average of complications is low. Common bile duct stones in a patient who underwent weight loss
BACKGROUND
Management of choledocholithiasis and its complications is variable and often requires transfer to a specialty facility. This study links patient-specific characteristics with the outcome measure of complicated choledocholithiasis to identify high-risk patients who may require expedited
BACKGROUND
Gallstones are a common condition in bariatric patients after a laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). The management of ductal stones is challenging due to the altered gastrointestinal anatomy. Various techniques have been reported to manage bile duct stones.
METHODS
We present
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between childhood and adolescent obesity, the risk of gallstones, and the potential effect modification by oral contraceptive use in girls.
METHODS
For this population-based cross-sectional study, measured weight and height,
