Risk Factors for Recurrence of Primary Bile Duct Stones

May 19, 2014 updated by: Jai Hoon Yoon, Chuncheon Sacred Heart Hospital

Case-control Study of Risk Factors for Recurrence of Primary Bile Duct Stones

Recurrent common bile duct stone is one of the risk factors of recurrent cholangitis. However, the exact pathophysiology or mechanism of recurrent cholangitis has not been established. Periampullary diverticulum and narrow angle of common bile duct have been postulated as risk factors of recurrent common bile duct stone. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between periampullary dierticulum, angle of common bile duct and recurrent common bile duct stone.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Recurrent common bile duct stone is one of the risk factors of recurrent cholangitis. However, the exact pathophysiology or mechanism of recurrent cholangitis has not been established. Periampullary diverticulum and narrow angle of common bile duct have been postulated as risk factors of recurrent common bile duct stone. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between periampullary dierticulum, angle of common bile duct and recurrent common bile duct stone.

This study is patient-control setting study. Firstly, from July 2007 through February 2014, all the patients who were performed ERCP will be enrolled. The inclusion criteria is the patients with common bile duct stone. The exclusion criteria is patients with biliary stenosis, PSC, retained GB stone, or who were lost to follow-up. The main outcome is the association between periampullary diverticulum, common bile duct angle, and recurrent CBD stone. This will be evaluated by univariate and multivariate analyses.

Study Population

Patients who were diagnosed as CBD stone or calculous cholangitis will be enrolled. These patients will be divided by patienst with recurrent CBD stone (devlopment of CBD stone after 1 year from the first development of CBD stone) or not .

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who were performed ERCP due to CBD stone or calculous cholangitis

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with biliary stricture, PSC, retained GB stone, or who were lost to follow-up.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Patients with recurrent CBD stone
Periampullary diverticulum has been postulated as risk factor of recurrent CBD stone.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The association between existence of periampullary diverticulum and recurrent CBD stone
Time Frame: retrospective (up to 8 years)
The association between existence of periampullary diverticulum and recurrent CBD stone will be assessed by univariate analysis.(unit of analysis: odds ratio, statistical method: Fisher's exact test)
retrospective (up to 8 years)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The association between common bile duct angle and existence of recurrent CBD stone
Time Frame: retrospective (up to 8 years)
The association between common bile duct angle and recurrent CBD stone will be assessed by univariate analysis (unit of analysis: angle, statistical method: student's t test)
retrospective (up to 8 years)

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The risk factors for the development of recurrent CBD stone
Time Frame: retrospective (up to 8 years)
The risk factors for the development of recurrent CBD stone will be assessed by multivariate analysis, based on results of univariate analyses. (statistical method: logistic regression analysis)
retrospective (up to 8 years)
