Jaundice due to hydatid compression of the bile ducts

Ictericia por compresión hidática de las vías biliares

Praderi, Raúl - Gómez Fossati, Carlos - Praderi, Luis

Resumen:

Compression of main biliary tract by non-ruptured hydatid cysts, may cause obstructive jaundice with characteristics similar to those caused by biliary or pancreatic cancers.This rare cases may occur in cysts of the quadrate or Spigelian lobe which displace the. hepatic duct in the portal fissure, as well as in sone retropodicularor interportocoledochal cysts which occlude or laminate the coledochus. The latter may be accompanied by compressión or thrombosis of the vena porta, as was the case in twoof the five patients. Treatment consisted of drainage of cysts and main biliary tract, except in cases when the latter's calibre was small, as was the case in one of the patisntson whom colecystostomy was performed. Evolution of three of the patients was good, but those with portal thrombosis died. 


La compresión de la vía biliar principal por quistes hidáticos no rotos, puede provocar ictericia obstructiva con caracteres parecidos a las determinadas por cánceresbiliares o pancreáticos. Esta rara situación se puede ver en los quistes del lóbulo cuadrado o de Spiegel que desplazan el conducto hepático en el hilio y también en algunos quistesretropediculares o interportocoledocianos que estenosan o laminan el colédoco. Estos últimos pueden acompañarse de compresión o trombosis de la vena porta como sucedió en dos de los cinco observaciones relatadas. El tratamiento utilizado fue el drenaje del quiste y de la vía biliar principal excepto cuando ésta es de pequeño calibre, como sucedió en una de las observaciones en que se hizo colecistostomía. Tres de los enfermos evolucionaron bien, falleciendo los que tenían trombosis portal.
