No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Standard cystic duct cholangiography (CDC) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be difficult, time consuming and bile duct injury may be caused by attempts to cannulate the cystic duct. Operative cholangiography performed by direct puncture of the gall bladder fundus or Cholecystocholangiography (CCC) is a valid and easier alternative.

Conditions

  • Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
  • Gall Stone Disease
  • Biliary Tract Anatomy
  • Common Bile Duct Stones.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

cholecystocholangiography

a central venous pressure catheter was introduced through the anterior abdominal wall subcostally in a direction parallel to the gallbladder bed under direct vision so that it emerges close to the gall bladder. Then the catheter was advanced into the fundus of the gall bladder . The dye was prepared by diluting 20ml of 76% urografin with 20ml normal saline in a 50ml syringe

PROCEDURE

cystic duct cholangiography

Then a 14G cannula was introduced through the anterior abdominal wall subcostally, (size 4F), was introduced through this cannula. The catheter was inserted into the cystic duct no more than 1 cm, by a grasper Then a 50ml syringe with the diluted urografin dye, as above, was attached to the catheter and cholangiography was performed by slowly injecting the dye under control of C-arm image intensifier.
