Summary

A new temporary endoluminally-stented anastomosis (TESA) technique for laparoscopic choledochojejunostomy is safe and effective. This minimally invasive approach offers functional benefits comparable to traditional surgery for peri-ampullary tumors.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Gastrointestinal Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Surgical biliary bypass is superior to endoscopic stenting for non-resectable peri-ampullary tumors.
  • Laparoscopic biliary bypass combines benefits but faces technical challenges.
  • Existing instrumentation limits laparoscopic biliary bypass efficacy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a novel endoscopic device for rapid laparoscopic anastomosis.
  • To assess the efficacy of temporary endoluminally-stented anastomosis (TESA) in laparoscopic choledochojejunostomy.
  • To compare TESA with traditional handsewn laparoscopic anastomosis.

Main Methods:

  • Laparoscopic choledochojejunostomy techniques were evaluated in 57 female pigs.
  • 36 animals underwent TESA using absorbable stents.

  • Results were compared to 21 animals with laparoscopically handsewn anastomosis.
  • Main Results:

    • TESA significantly reduced operating time (105 min vs. 165 min, p < 0.01).
    • Both TESA and handsewn methods showed identical follow-up and results.
    • Minimal differences were observed in bile duct and anastomosis diameters.

    Conclusions:

    • Laparoscopic choledochojejunostomy using TESA or handsewn anastomosis is rapid and safe.
    • TESA demonstrates good bypass function over 3 and 6 months.
    • TESA offers a promising approach for non-resectable peri-ampullary tumors, merging minimally invasive benefits with functional outcomes.
