The bile duct diameter was 8 mm. Trials of antispasmodic medications and pain relievers such as Darvon helped to partially control the pain. After six months of persistent symptoms and missing work a few more days, a Gastroenterology referral was made. An MRCP was done which showed normal bile ducts and pancreatic ducts (Figure 2)

It was decided that surgical exploration and attempted removal of the tumor and portal vein was too aggressive for a patient of this age. Therefore, an ERCP was done which showed double duct sign (Figure 4). Decompression (re-opening) of the obstructed bile duct was accomplished using a metal stent (Figure 5,6). Jaundice resolved in the next 5 ...

there is a tiny opening called the ampulla, which is connected to the main bile duct. Bile flows from the liver through this opening into the small intestine. A small plastic catheter can be passed through the scope, into the ampulla and advanced into the bile duct where dye can be injected and any strictures viewed using X-ray pictures.

The smaller elongated structure above it is the common bile duct. If there is doubt as to which is the duct, color flow can be applied. Once the portal vein is found, the hepatic artery and common bile duct usually sit above it and are distinguished by using color flow and noting one structure with flow (the artery) and one without (the duct).

Once the common bile stones are detected, ERCP, sphincterotomy and stone extraction is the treatment of choice. If the stones are cleared completely, then this is followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy. If the common bile duct stones are not cleared completely or if the stones are larger than 2.5 cm, then the surgeon may choose to perform:

There is evidence that sphincterotomy and clearance of the bile duct can reduce the incidence of infective complications in these patients. In patients with cholangitis, sphincterotomy should be carried out or a biliary stent placed to drain the duct. ERCP is an invasive procedure and carries a small risk of worsening the pancreatitis.
