These terms were combined with the medical subject headings “postop­erative complications” and “treatment outcomes ,” which were ‘exploded’ to also include specifi c variants of these terms. These terms were also combined with spe­cifi c operative procedures (i.e. “pancreatoduodenectomy,” “ hepatectomy ,” etc.). Results were limited to human subjects and English language, case reports and let­ters were eliminated. Reference lists of high impact results were queried to identify additional results.

PBDS After Complex Hepatobiliary Procedures

Systematic review of biliary stricture s following orthotopic liver transplant (OLT), extrahepatic biliary tree resection (EBR), and pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) are beyond the scope of this chapter; however, a few salient points are noteworthy. Stricture is a signifi cant complication of OLT, occurring in up to 20 % of cases [ 4 , 56 , 57 ]. This problem is commonly associated with hepatic artery complications. In patients with end-to-end biliary reconstruction, most biliary strictures are amenable to endoscopic therapy (with stenting), while those with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunos­tomy are commonly approached by percutaneous transhepatic methods.
The incidence of PBDS after PD is approximately 3 % [ 3 , 58 , 59 ], though given the increasing frequency of pancreatic surgery , surprisingly few data are available specifi c to postoperative bile duct stricture . The time to stricture formation after PD averages 13–16 months, and most patients present with cholangitis and/or jaundice . Recurrent malignancy should be considered as a cause of PBDS in patients having PD for diagnosis of cancer . Percutaneous therapy is successful in most patients (95 % in one series [ 59 ]), though depending on local expertise, some authors have chosen to address these patients surgically with equally good outcomes [ 58 ].
Even fewer data on PBDS are available specifi c to resection of the extrahepatic biliary tree (for example, for choledochal cyst) [ 5 , 60 ]. As the reconstruction in these cases is almost universally by Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy , the primary treatment modality is percutaneous intervention. Most authorities recommend life­long follow up for these patients, as strictures may present very late (decades) after defi nitive surgical treatment.

PBDS After Cholecystectomy

Cholecystectomy, both in the pre- laparoscopic era as well as in contemporary time represents by far and away the most common cause of PBDS. National estimates suggest as many as 0.5 % of all cholecystectomies have associated bile leak or bile duct injury , both of which may lead to PBDS [
1 ]. Treatment of PBDS depends on a

number of variables. First and foremost is the anatomic level of injury. Additional considerations include local availability of specialty treatment (i.e. interventional radiology, endoscopy , and specialized hepatobiliary surgical units), timing of repair, and presence of major vascular injury [ 11 , 12 ]. Comparison of PBDS treatment outcomes by different techniques is limited signifi cantly by small sample sizes, retrospective analyses, and most importantly, diffi culty comparing similar types of injuries/strictures. For example, injuries of Strasberg type A (consisting simply of bile leak, either from the cystic duct stump or from a peripheral bile duct in the gallbladder bed) are easily and durably managed with endoscopic stent ing more than 95 % of the time. On the other hand, type E injuries, including those proximal to the hepatic bifurcation, those with major vascular injury, and those with complete hepatic duct occlusion or transection involve an exponentially greater degree of complexity and in extreme cases may even require major hepatectomy for defi nitive treatment [ 61 ]. Nevertheless, patients with both of these types of injuries are often included in the same analysis and even in comparison studies. No prospective study exits comparing similar types of PBDS treated by different techniques. Based on existing retrospective data, however, several general treatment recommendations may be observed.

Surgical Repair

Select studies reviewing surgical repair of PBDS are shown in Table 21.1 . The larger series number in the hundreds of patients, though these series often span sev­eral decades. Advances in surgical technique (as well as endoscopic and percutane­ous techniques) that have evolved over the time of the study should be considered. Reasonable follow up is measured in multiples of years; most PBDS will manifest with some combination of pain , jaundice , and cholangitis within the fi rst 5 years of operation, though as many as 10 % of PBDS may present quite late (decades) [ 2 ]. Lifelong follow up of patients after surgical repair of PBDS therefore seems quite prudent.
Most surgical series document excellent (>90 %) durable long-term success when following basic tenets of repair: utilizing a tension-free anastomosis of healthy, well-perfused bile duct s to similarly well-perfused intestine. Most authori­ties recommend repair either very early (within 48 h of the injury, particularly if no major hepatic artery injury is coincident) or waiting for 4–6 weeks to permit patient optimization [ 2 , 15 , 42 ]. Optimizing patient physiology includes controlling biliary sepsis, supplementing nutrition as necessary, and defi ning the level of biliary injury and presence of hepatic arterial injury. Many studies have shown less than optimal outcomes for PBDS repaired in the 2–4 week time period post injury; these poor outcomes have been attributed to poor bile duct perfusion in the presence of evolv­ing ischemia.
Several technical considerations are worth discussion. First, the level of repair has been debated: some authorities suggest that routine use of the Hepp-Couinaud
N.J. Zyromski and J.R. Butler
245
technique may be associated with improved outcomes [ 7 , 10 , 63 ]. Second, while most biliary surgeons prefer Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy , some have advocated choledochoduodenostomy as defi nitive repair [ 25 – 27 ]. Table 21.2 summarizes out- comes of choledochoduodenostomy for repair of PBDS. Potential advantages of choledochoduodenostomy include subjecting the patient to a less complex opera­tion (fewer anastomoses) and maintenance of continuity with the upper gut, permit­ting endoscopic biliary evaluation if necessary. Detractors of this technique impugn the sump syndrome (foodstuffs lodged in the distal/intrapancreatic common bile duct ) as a cause of recurrent cholangitis and liver abscess . Dividing the bile duct completely and performing end-to-side choledochoduodenostomy may avoid the sump syndrome. Most post- cholecystectomy biliary injuries are high, and therefore Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy may be the preferable approach in these situations.

Most would agree that preoperative placement of transhepatic biliary stent s greatly facilitates operative conduct. In contrast, the issue of transhepatic stenting in the postoperative period is a topic of ongoing debate. Historically, two camps have included routine stenters and routine non-stenters. Many experienced biliary sur­geons have come to a middle ground, maintaining transhepatic stents in the situa­tion of a small caliber bile duct or high reconstruction, while avoiding stents in the case of large diameter biliary-enteric anastomoses. The duration of stenting postop­eratively is not consistent; however, a time period of 3–6 months at minimum seems reasonable to attenuate stricture formation. Over-the-wire transhepatic cholangiog­raphy with either manometry or a “ clinical trial ” may be used before removing stents. Biliary manometry (the Whittaker test) is used infrequently; the alternative, “clinical trial” involves maintaining the transhepatic stent at a level proximal to the anastomosis for a short period of time while monitoring the patient for symptoms of pain or cholangitis .

Percutaneous Therapy

Exclusive percutaneous management of PBDS has been used at select centers with experienced interventional radiology groups [ 28 – 31 ]. Table 21.3 summarizes results of these studies, and Table 21.5 includes patients with percutaneous transhepatic stenting reported in trials that include surgical repair and/or endoscopic treatment. In general, fewer studies of percutaneous biliary stent ing as defi nitive treatment for PBDS have been reported when compared to the surgical or endoscopic approaches. This observation perhaps highlights the rarity of expertise in biliary interventional radiology nationwide. Studies of percutaneous biliary stenting for PBDS are all hampered by small sample sizes and relatively short follow up. Most of these series count patients who have required multiple stent exchanges and prolonged duration of stenting as successfully treated. The duration of stenting is variable, but may last more than 1–2 years. Most of these series document success rate s signifi cantly lower than those reported in surgical series, though the defi nition of success (i.e. radiological vs clinical) varies considerably. Noteworthy is the fact that most of these series contain at least some patients who have failed either surgical or endo­scopic treatment. Also noteworthy in the big picture is the substantial technical expertise necessary to access a non-dilated biliary system by the percutaneous tran­shepatic approach.

Endoscopic Therapy

Table 21.4 documents select series of patients with PBDS treated exclusively by endoscopic dilation and stenting. Follow up in these series is on par with surgical series. Success rates generally range above 90 % overall, with the caveat that patients with Type A injuries (i.e. bile leak s) are included in many of these series. Improved outcomes have been observed over time, as may be expected with advances in endoscopic technology, technique, and experience. More recently, trials of multiple plastic versus larger caliber metallic endobiliary stents have been under­taken; some authorities feel that covered metallic endobiliary stents may provide the most expeditious and durable treatment.
Again, it is important to reiterate that no one technique is suitable to treat all PBDS. A good practice for hepatobiliary surgeons interested in managing these patients is to work closely with their endoscopy (and interventional radiology) col­leagues, reviewing the imaging studies early in the treatment course. With experi­ence, one is often able to get a sense of which PBDS will respond to endotherapy alone, and which may require earlier surgical intervention (avoiding protracted peri­ods of stent changes).

Studies with Multiple Treatment Techniques

Table 21.5 lists studies in which patients have been treated by multiple techniques. These studies span the broadest time frame of the current review, and also represent the most heterogeneous group of patients in terms of injury level, treatment selec­tion, and outcome defi nitions. While many of these studies purport comparison of two groups of patients, great care must be taken drawing conclusions regarding superiority of any one technique.

In general, treatment outcomes in this group of reports mirror those observed in studies of individual treatment modality: relatively less durable success by percuta­neous approach, with approximately 90+ percent success seen in both endoscopic and surgical treatment groups. Reasonable follow up has been achieved in many of these groups. Again, many studies of endoscopic treatment include patients with Strasberg type A injuries ( bile leak s), in whom excellent results are expected.
The paper reported by Pitt and his colleagues from Indiana University is note­worthy [ 2 ]. This large series is the only report to date to include surgical, percutane- ous , and endoscopic treatment of PBDS in a large number of patients. The outcomes achieved by these experienced hepatobiliary surgeons, interventional radiologists, and endoscopists essentially mirrors outcomes described above: moderates success with transhepatic stenting, excellent success with surgical and endoscopic (includ­ing type A injury) therapy. Better success in more recent years was attributed to increased experience and stent maintenance for more than 6 months (all treatment modalities). An important observation corroborating prior surgical studies was the poorer outcomes in those patients repaired surgically during “intermediate” time period (i.e. 2–4 weeks post injury) compared to immediate (<48 h) or delayed (>4 week) repair.

Recommendations Based on the Data

• Patients with Strasberg type A injury/PBDS (i.e. bile leak alone) are best treated
by endoscopic therapy with stenting (evidence quality moderate, strong
recommendation)

• Surgical therapy appears to be the most durable treatment modality overall for
patients with Strasberg type B-E injury/PBDS (evidence quality moderate, strong
recommendation)
• Timing of surgical repair should be either immediate (<48 h) or delayed for >4–6
weeks from the time of injury (evidence quality moderate, strong recommendation)
• Hepaticojejunostomy Roux-en-Y may be preferable to choledochoduodenos-
tomy for repair of high PBDS (evidence quality weak, weak recommendation).

A Personal View of the Data

Multidisciplinary evaluation of patients with PBDS including experienced endosco­pists, interventional radiologists, and hepatobiliary surgeons is ideal to determine the best technique with which to approach specifi c clinical situations, and therefore achieve optimal outcomes in these complex patients. The location and type of injury/PBDS dictates therapeutic approach (i.e. surgical, percutaneous , endoscopic ). In real practice, multiple approaches often provide complimentary information and therapeutic benefi t for individual patients.
Surgical management of PBDS demands knowledge of biliary anatomy and the presence of concomitant hepatic artery injury. Timing of repair should be based on the clinical situation, and in most cases delayed 4–6 weeks to control biliary sepsis and permit physical and nutritional optimization. While specifi c techniques such as high repair (Hepp-Couinaud technique) [ 62 ], choledochoduodenostomy , and dura- tion of transhepatic stenting may be debated, it appears clear that the best surgical outcomes come in the hands of experienced biliary units. In patients with PBDS after Roux-en-Y repair, percutaneous stenting is a very reasonable fi rst approach when local expertise is available.
Patient quality of life , time lost from work, overall cost of treatment, and litiga­tion were not addressed in this review; however, each of these issues plays an impor­tant role in managing PBDS patients. Long-term (lifetime) follow up of these patients after PBDS repair is ideal.
In this era of evidence-based medicine, it is highly unlikely that a prospective, randomized trial will ever be performed comparing surgical repair to endoscopic or percutaneous treatment of a specifi c PBDS. Nevertheless, as in other practical medi­cal practice, reasonably solid retrospective analyses inform rational management of this problem [ 63 ] .
