Abstract

T-tube drainage is a widely used procedure among surgeons for various biliary conditions. However, various complications may occur, especially due to the breaking-off of the T-tube from the area where it enters the common bile duct during retraction. These complications often require subsequent surgical procedures to remove the T-tube fragment from the common bile duct lumen. In selected cases, the T-tube fragment can be extracted from the common bile duct by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). ERCP has a life-saving role that eliminates reoperation for such a complication. Herein, we present a 42-year-old female patient who was referred to our hospital, which is as an advanced center, due to breakage during T-tube withdrawal. The patient had previously undergone open cholecystectomy and T-tube drainage. When removing the T-tube, a breakage occurred at 3-4 cm from the T-tube leg, which was left in the common bile duct. In the ERCP, the leg of the T-tube was removed from the common bile duct lumen by basket compression following endoscopic sphincterotomy and a temporary plastic stent was placed. One month after the procedure, the stent was removed with the help of the ERCP. This case is presented as a rare indication of ERCP.

Özet

T-tüp drenajı cerrahlar arasındaki çeşitli biliyer problemler için yaygın olarak kullanılan bir prosedürdür. Bununla birlikte, özellikle T-tüpün geri çekilmesisırasında ortak safra kanalına girdiği bölgeden kopması sonucunda çeşitli komplikasyonlar meydana gelebilir. Bu komplikasyonlar genellikle ortak safrakanalı lümeninden T-tüp fragmanını çıkarmak için ardından gelen cerrahi prosedürler gerektirebilir. Bununla birlikte seçici olgularda T-tüp fragmanı,endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografi (ERCP) ile ortak safra kanalından çıkartılabilir. ERCP, böyle bir komplikasyon için yeniden ameliyatıortadan kaldıran hayat kurtarıcı bir role sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, T-tüpün geri çekilmesi sırasında kopması nedeniyle ileri merkez olarak hastanemize sevkedilen 42 yaşında kadın hasta sunuldu. Hastaya daha önce açık kolesistektomi ve T-tüp drenajı uygulanmıştı. T-tüp çıkarılırken, T-tüp bacağından 3-4cm mesafede kopma meydana geldi. T-tüp bacağı ortak safra kanalında kalmıştı. ERCP’de T-tüpün bacağı, endoskopik sfinkterotomiyi takiben basketsıkıştırması ile ortak safra kanalı lümeninden çıkarıldı ve geçici bir plastik stent yerleştirildi. İşlemden bir ay sonra, stent ERCP yardımıyla çıkarıldı. Buolgu, ERCP’nin seyrek endikasyonu olarak sunulmuştur.
