Abstract |
A 5-year-old male patient was admitted due to fever, and right upper abdominal pain for 2 weeks.
He showed severe right upper quadrant tenderness on palpation, hepatomegaly 5 cm below the
right costal margin, no mass, and no splenomegaly. On biochemical studies, ALT was 380IU/ml,
AST 462IU/ml, alkaline phosphatase 1,069IU/ml, γGTP 239IU/ml, and total bilirubin 2.1mg/dl. Endoscopic
retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) showed cylindrical dilatations of CBD and cystic
dilatations with strictures of extrahepatic and both bilateral intrahepatic bile ducts (choledochal
cyst type IVa) with multiple stones in the CBD and extra- and intrahepatic bile ducts. Endoscopic
sphincterotomy(EST) and stone extraction with basket and balloon were performed successfully.
The bile was severely purulent and the stones were pigment stones. Klebsiella pneumoniae were
dominantly grown on bile culture. An endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) tube was inserted to
treat biliary sepsis. The bile ducts were irrigated with tobramycin-mixed normal saline twice a day
for 2 week, when ALT, AST, total bilirubin and liver size were normalized and no more bacteria
was grown on bile culture. The clinical symptoms were improved just after the therapeutic ERCP.
There was no side effect by ERCP, EST and ENBD. |
