Portal biliopathy, a rare condition involving bile duct varix and obstruction, requires tailored treatment. Management focuses on portal hypertension and obstructive jaundice, often involving cholecystectomy and endoscopic procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Portal biliopathy is a rare condition characterized by bile duct varix, ischemic damage, and structural alterations.
  • It often leads to obstructive phenomena and is infrequently diagnosed, with limited literature available.

Observation:

  • The study presents two cases of extrahepatic bile duct obstruction associated with cholecystitis and documented extrahepatic portal hypertension.
  • Both patients underwent cholecystectomy and endoscopic endoprosthesis placement.

Findings:

  • Portal biliopathy presents with obstructive jaundice and is linked to extrahepatic portal hypertension.
  • Successful management involved surgical and endoscopic interventions tailored to individual patient needs.

Implications:

  • Effective treatment necessitates addressing both portal hypertension and obstructive jaundice.
  • Cholecystectomy is indicated for concurrent cholecystitis, while gastrointestinal bleeding may require advanced interventions like shunting or endoscopic ligation.
