Abstract

The aim of the work: to improve the efficiency of treatment of patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) with signs of biliary hypertension (BH) due to the increased accuracy of pre-operative and intra-operative diagnosis using modern methods of the patient’s examination, reasoning of adequate approaches to surgical treatment.

Materials and Methods. During 2011–2017 170 patients with complicated forms of CP underwent surgical intervention at the Department of General Surgery of Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Clinical Hospital. For diagnosis of BH there were used such methods: laboratory findings (level of general and direct bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase), ultrasound examination (USE), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), computed tomography (CT) with contrast enhancement, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), method of intraoperative monitoring of biliary pressure (IOM BP).

Results and Discussion. In 60 (35.3 %) patients the CP was accompanied by BH. Prior to surgery, jaundice has occurred only in 47 (78.3 %) patients, and hyperbilirubinemia was – in 49 (81.6 %) patients. During ultrasound examination the distension of suprapancreatic portion of choledochus from 8 mm was diagnosed in 85.0 % of patients, during ERCP – in 90.1 %, during CT – in 85.0 % of patients, and during MRCP – in 100.0 % of patients. In 26 patients the IOM BP method was used. Patients with CP with BH were performed: resection-type surgery – 45 (75.0 %) patients, operations of drainage type – 9 (15.0 %) patients; palliative operations – 6 (10.0 %) patients. The use of IOM BP allowed the detection of the latent BH, performance of its intraoperative correction and assessment of the adequacy of the resection performance and resection-drainage operations on the pancreatic gland (PG) in CP as for the unloading of bile ducts. Standard resection and resection-drainage surgical interventions allowed the elimination of BH only in 61.5 % of patients; in 38.5 % of patients they were supplied with drai nage operations in the bile ducts.
