Cholecystoenterostomy for treatment of extrahepatic biliary tract obstruction in cats: 22 cases (1994–2003)

Abstract: Results suggest that cats with EHBTO secondary to neoplasia have a poorer prognosis than cats with EHBTO secondary to chronic inflammatory disease. However, the overall prognosis for cats with EHBTO undergoing cholecystoenterostomy must be considered guarded to poor, and the incidence of perioperative complications is high.

“…It has been suggested that a 2.5-4 cm aperture length minimizes the possibility of a recurrent stenosis and cholangitis, associated with the insuffi cient drainage of the biliary tract and intestinal refl ux [25]. In this case, the surgical incision mirrored that in previous reports [7,9,[25][26][27]. A cholecystoduodenostomy is the procedure of choice in dogs and cats, because their bile is in contact with the duodenum.…”

“…Malignant neoplasms and infl ammatory conditions such as cholangiohepatitis, pancreatitis, or cholelithiasis are the main causes of extra-hepatic obstructions in felines [6,7]. Neoplastic conditions, diaphragmatic ruptures, cholelithiasis [6], choledochal cysts [8], and traumatic avulsion of the common biliary duct [9] may also cause obstructions.…”

“…2,[6][7][8][9] Endoscopic retrograde sphincterotomy with biliary stenting is considered the treatment of choice for many of these conditions. [14][15][16][17][18][19] Surgical biliary diversion techniques in dogs and cats have been associated with a 25% to 73% and 50% to 75% mortality rate, respectively.
