Bile01:19

Bile

4.0K
Bile is a crucial bodily fluid, characterized by its yellow-green color and alkaline nature. Produced in the liver, it is transported through the common hepatic duct into either the cystic duct, leading to the gallbladder, or directly into the common bile duct. The flow of bile is regulated by the sphincter of Oddi located at the entrance of the duodenum. When this sphincter is closed, bile is redirected to the gallbladder for storage and concentration.
Bile is released when dietary fats enter...

Types of RNA01:23

Types of RNA

72.7K
Overview
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.

Types of Hormones

Hormones can be classified into three main types based on their chemical structures: steroids, peptides, and amines. Their actions are mediated by the specific receptors they bind to on target cells.

Primary and Secondary Growth in Roots and Shoots03:02

Primary and Secondary Growth in Roots and Shoots

60.3K
Vascular plants, which account for over 90% of the Earth’s vegetation, all undergo primary growth—which lengthens roots and shoots. Many land plants, notably woody plants, also undergo secondary growth—which thickens roots and shoots.

Types of Toxins01:36

Types of Toxins

3.3K
Humans continually engage with an environment rich in potentially harmful chemicals. These are introduced to our bodies through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. These chemicals exist in various forms, such as air and environmental pollutants, agricultural chemicals, organic solvents, and heavy metals.
Air pollutants, primarily gases, pose significant threats to respiratory health, leading to conditions like hypoxia, lung cancer, and in extreme cases, death.
Environmental pollutants like...

Types of Coprecipitation01:10

Types of Coprecipitation

6.1K
Coprecipitation is the contamination of a precipitate by otherwise soluble species and occurs via different processes. In colloidal precipitates, coprecipitation occurs via surface adsorption. For instance, barium sulfate has a primary layer of adsorbed barium ions and a secondary layer of nitrate counterions. This results in contamination of the precipitate by barium nitrate.
Sometimes, ions in a crystal lattice can undergo isomorphous replacement by inclusions of similar charge and size. For...

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Interventional Endoscopy
  • Surgical Complications

Background:

  • External biliary fistulas are common after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
  • Strasberg type C bile leaks, involving isolated ducts, are challenging for standard endoscopic treatment.
  • Traditional management often requires invasive surgery with significant morbidity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe and evaluate a novel endoscopic technique for treating Strasberg type C bile leaks.
  • To assess the safety and efficacy of this minimally invasive approach.
  • To establish endotherapy as a viable alternative to operative repair for complex bile leaks.

Main Methods:

  • A case series of 19 patients with Strasberg type C bile leaks (March 2012-September 2017).
  • Endoscopic access to the isolated duct was achieved by guidewire passage through the cystic duct stump or common bile duct disruption.
  • Direct cannulation or an endoscopic 'step-up approach' was used to restore biliary tree continuity.

Main Results:

  • 100% technical and clinical success rates were achieved.
  • Abdominal drain output ceased within a mean of 1.2 days.
  • One recurrence was successfully retreated endoscopically, demonstrating high efficacy and safety in expert centers.

Conclusions:

  • The described endoscopic treatment is innovative, safe, and effective for Strasberg type C bile leaks.
  • This minimally invasive procedure reduces the need for aggressive operative interventions.
  • The technique requires specialized interventional endoscopic expertise and is suitable for tertiary-level centers.
