Abstract

Background: Obstructive jaundice is a common condition in daily clinical practice. Given the severity of its potential complications, prompt management and resolution are essential. Percutaneous biliary drainage is a viable therapeutic option. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of percutaneous biliary drainage in reducing bilirubin levels and providing symptomatic relief in patients with obstructive jaundice treated at Hospital Nacional Posadas between 2019 and 2024. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted using the database of Hospital Nacional Prof. A. Posadas. All patients diagnosed with obstructive jaundice (total bilirubin ≥2 mg/dL) who underwent percutaneous biliary drainage between June 2019 and May 2024 were included (n = 118). Data collected included age, sex, comorbidities, procedures, underlying cause, complications, laboratory results, and symptomatic improvement. Results: A total of 118 patients underwent percutaneous biliary drainage. Of these, 58 (49.1%) were female and 60 (50.8%) were male. The mean age was 60.43 years. The average baseline total bilirubin level was 15.44 mg/dL. Clinical presentation included jaundice (86.44%), fever (20.33%), and pain (55.08%). At 72 hours postprocedure, 59.32% of patients experienced a 50% reduction in bilirubin levels, and 70.33% reported symptomatic relief. The average total bilirubin at discharge was 8.6 mg/dL. Procedure-related complications occurred in 5.08% of patients, the most common being hemorrhage (2.54%). A second drainage procedure or catheter replacement was necessary in 31.34% of cases, and 15.25% required an additional intervention (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography or surgery) to achieve adequate bilirubin reduction. Conclusion: In our series, percutaneous biliary drainage proved to be an effective and safe method for reducing bilirubin levels and providing symptomatic relief, with an acceptably low complication rate.

经皮胆道引流:一家公立医院的黄疸及症状缓解。
背景:梗阻性黄疸是临床上常见的一种疾病。鉴于其潜在并发症的严重性,及时管理和解决是至关重要的。经皮胆道引流是一种可行的治疗方法。目的是评估2019年至2024年在国立波萨达斯医院治疗的梗阻性黄疸患者经皮胆道引流在降低胆红素水平和缓解症状方面的有效性。方法:采用美国国立医院A. Posadas教授的数据库进行回顾性分析。所有诊断为梗阻性黄疸(总胆红素≥2mg /dL)的患者在2019年6月至2024年5月期间接受了经皮胆道引流(n = 118)。收集的数据包括年龄、性别、合并症、手术、根本原因、并发症、实验室结果和症状改善。结果:118例患者行经皮胆道引流术。其中女性58例(49.1%),男性60例(50.8%)。平均年龄60.43岁。平均基线总胆红素水平为15.44 mg/dL。临床表现为黄疸(86.44%)、发热(20.33%)、疼痛(55.08%)。术后72小时,59.32%的患者胆红素水平降低50%,70.33%的患者症状缓解。出院时平均总胆红素为8.6 mg/dL。手术相关并发症发生率为5.08%,最常见的是出血(2.54%)。31.34%的病例需要第二次引流或更换导管,15.25%需要额外的干预(内窥镜逆行胆管造影或手术)以达到足够的胆红素降低。结论:在我们的研究中,经皮胆道引流术被证明是一种有效和安全的降低胆红素水平和缓解症状的方法,并发症发生率低。

期刊介绍: Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques (JLAST) is the leading international peer-reviewed journal for practicing surgeons who want to keep up with the latest thinking and advanced surgical technologies in laparoscopy, endoscopy, NOTES, and robotics. The Journal is ideally suited to surgeons who are early adopters of new technology and techniques. Recognizing that many new technologies and techniques have significant overlap with several surgical specialties, JLAST is the first journal to focus on these topics both in general and pediatric surgery, and includes other surgical subspecialties such as: urology, gynecologic surgery, thoracic surgery, and more.
