Abstract

Background

After pancreatic surgery hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) stricture is a rare condition. Usually, management is conservative, while operative revision (“redo”) is only rarely performed.

Methods

This was an observational cohort design that analyzed the outcome of patients who had a surgical revision of HJ strictures after pancreatic surgery at a specialized pancreatic center.

Results

During a period of 7 years from January 2004 until December 2010, 887 patients underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) or HJ. Among this patient population, 3 % (23/887) underwent a redo of the HJ secondary to stricture formation. Major symptoms of HJ strictures were recurrent cholangitis in 91 % (21/23) and jaundice in 39 % (9/23). The median time from the index operation until redo of the HJ was 16 ± 27 months. The median survival of patients with malignancy after redo of the HJ was 45 ± 67 months. Major surgical morbidity was 9 % (2/23), and mortality was 0 % (0/23). In 78 % (18/23), there were no further episodes of cholangitis after a median follow of 49 ± 73 months, while none of the patients with redo of the HJ developed a restenosis of the HJ.

Conclusion

Surgical revision (redo) of HJ strictures can be safely performed by an experienced pancreatic surgeon with a low morbidity without mortality with good long-term results.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
