Kehr tube colon fistula
Fístula de colon por tubo de Kehr
Resumen:
A case of colonic fistula caused by the use of Kehr's tube, is described. The reason for presenting a paper on this subject is not only to point out the possibility of this accident, but also tci show the different types of complications that may occur after a choledocotomy. Consequently the advantages of outer drainage of the common bile duct over the so-called ideal choledocotomy, is a.nalyzed: it is easy to perform, and no serious complications ensue, but above ali its post-operatory evolution is safe. The manner in which Kher's tube should be fitted is discussed, together with the precautions for reducing to a minimun accidents derived from its use; the most practica! manner of avoiding them is by preventingthe tube from damaging the structures with which it is in contact. The most suitable. time for the removal of the tube is considered: there is a minimun period (about 12days) and a maximun (over two months); however the longer it is· left, the greater the risk of complications. The authors revise the. complications which may arise from the use of Kehr's tube, though in general it should be pointed out that they are not significant. This is accompanied by a classified list of the different types of accidents and the means of eliminating them. Finally, the paper stresses that the specific purpose of the drainage is to ensure the depletion of the biliary ducts, evaduate the infected bilis and rest thedelicate and complex sphincterian apparatus.
Se presenta un caso de fístula de colon provocada por el uso del tubo de Kehr. El propósito de la mísma es no sólo destacar este accídente, síno también el de indicar los tipos de complicaciones que pueden ocurrir luego de la coledocotomía. Con esta finalidad se analizan las ventajas del drenaje al exterior del colédoco, sobre la llamada coledocotomíaideal, por la facilidad de su ejecución, la ausencia de complicaciones graves, pero sobre todo por la seguridad que ofrece en el postoperatorio. Se hacen consideraciones sobre la forma que debe ser conformado el tubo de Kehr, y las medidas a tomar para reducir al mínimo los accidentes determinados por su uso, destacando que la manera más prácticapara evitarlas es tratar que el tubo no · dañe las estructuras con las que está en contacto. Se considera el tiempo oportuno para el retiro del tubo, estableciendo que hay un plazo mínimo (alrededor de 12 días), y un plazo máximo (más de 2 meses), pero destacando que los riesgos de complicaciones aumentan con el tiempo de permanencia del misma.Se hace una revisión sobre las complicaciones a que expone el uso del tubo de Kehr, aunque es de destacar que en general son de poca significación. Se hace una eXposición clasificada de los diversos tipos de accidentes, y la forma de combatirlos. Se finaliza destacando que los fines específicos del drenaje es asegurar la deplección de las vías biliares,evacuar la bilis infectada, y poner en reposo el delicado y complejo aparato esfinteriano.
