AIM:TO describe endoscopic treatment of bile leaks in these patients and to identify risk factors in these patients which can predict the development of bile leaks.METHODS:Retrospective case-control study examining consecutive patients who underwent partial hepatectomy for polycystic liver disease (PLD) and developed a postoperative bile leak managed endoscopically over a ten year period.Each case was matched with two controls with PLD who did not develop a postoperative bile leak.RESULTS:Ten cases underwent partial hepatectomy with fenestration for symptoms including abdominal distention,pain and nausea.Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) showed anatomic abnormalities in 1 case.A biliary sphincterotomy was performed in 4 cases.A plastic biliary stent was placed with the proximal end at the site of the leak in 9 cases;in 1 case two stents were placed.The overall success rate of ERCP to manage the leak was 90%.There were no significant differences in age,gender,comorbidities,duration of symptoms,history of previous surgery or type of surgery performed between cases and controls.CONCLUSION:ERCP with stent placement is safe and effective for management of post-hepatectomy bile leak in patients with PLD.
