Abstract

Biliary obstruction is most commonly caused by choledocholithiasis and periampullary tumors. Duodenal diverticulum is a rare pathology and usually asymptomatic. Obstruction of the bile duct due to duodenal diverticulum is known as Lemmel's syndrome. There are difficulties in both diagnosis and treatment. Presently described is the successful treatment of an 84-year-old patient with Lemmel's syndrome using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

Özet

Tıkanma sarılığı en sık koledok taşları ve periampuller bölge tümörlerinden kaynaklanır. Duodenum divertikülleri az rastlanan lezyonlar olup çoğu zaman asemptomatiktir. Duodenal divertiküllerin safra yollarını tıkaması Lemmel sendromu olarak bilinir. Tanı ve tedavisi güçlükler içermektedir. Kliniğimizde ile takip edilen 84 yaşındaki hasta endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyo pankreatografi ile başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edildi. Bu olgu sunumunda ilgili hasta tartışıldı.
