Trial summary

Mirizzi syndrome is an infrequent complication of long-standing cholelithiasis. Extrinsic compression of the common hepatic duct is usually caused by an impacted stone in Hartmann's pouch or cystic duct resulting in the development of cholecystobiliary fistula. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Single-operator Cholangioscopy and Electrohydraulic Lithotripsy for the Treatment of Mirizzi Syndrome: A Case Series

Mirizzi syndrome is an infrequent complication of long-standing cholelithiasis. Extrinsic compression of the common hepatic duct is usually caused by an impacted stone in Hartmann's pouch or cystic duct resulting in the development of cholecystobiliary fistula. This syndrome is classified based on the presence and severity of cholecystobiliary fistula. Mirizzi syndrome is challenging to diagnose preoperatively and may require complex biliary surgical procedures for resolution. Endoscopic treatment is a safe alternative with a high success rate. Single-operator cholangioscopy combined with lithotripsy has been shown to have a 90-100% success rate in the treatment of biliary stones. Herein, A single center experience treating Mirizzi syndrome with single-operator cholangioscopy guided electrohydraulic lithotripsy is presented. Difficult management of Mirizzi syndrome has led to research of new treatment options to minimize the risk of high rate complications. Single-operator cholangioscopy in combination with laser lithotripsy is an adequate and safe alternative for the treatment of this condition.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Single-operator cholangioscopy guided electrohydraulic lithotripsyProcedure or surgery

    Single-operator cholangioscopy guided electrohydraulic lithotripsy has the advantage of providing direct visualization of the bile ducts, enabling a single physician to diagnose and perform the therapeutic intervention in a single procedure.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Resolution of the common bile duct compression by an extrinsic gallbladder stone, with minimally invasive procedure such as single operator cholangioscopy, combined with lithotripsy

    Single operator cholangioscopy, combined with lithotripsy, will be use for treating patients with Mirizzi syndrome, while avoiding open surgery, and subsequent lesions to the biliary ducts. Post surgical morbidity will be assessed.

    Measured: 2019-2020

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mirizzi Syndrome and Cholelithiasis, run by Tecnologico de Monterrey at 1 site in Mexico.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Resolution of the common bile duct compression by an extrinsic gallbladder stone, with minimally invasive procedure such as single operator cholangioscopy, combined with lithotripsy (time frame: 2019-2020). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Dec 2020.
