About this study

Official title: Comparative Study : Repair of Common Bile Duct After CBD Exploration Over T-tube or Primary Repair Without Tube

the aim is to assess the benefits and harms of T-tube drainage versus primary closure without biliary stent after exploration common bile duct stones

Read the detailed description

Common Bile Duct Exploration is a surgery that involves opening the main bile duct that drains from liver and gallbladder into the first part of the small intestine (the duodenum). This is needed when a gallstone drops out of the gallbladder into the duct and partially or completely blocks up the duct. This can cause jaundice , fever and chills, severe abdominal pain due to infection / inflammation of the bile duct, gallbladder or pancreas. This most often involves admission to the hospital and urgent intervention. Most commonly, a procedure called an ERCP is used to clear out the stones from the bile duct. If gallbladder will have to be removed soon to prevent this potentially serious condition from occurring again.

During the operation the investigators remove gallbladder then a duct exploration is performed. This involves opening the duct directly and removing the stones.

Prior to Common Bile Duct Exploration surgery, patient will be asked not to eat anything after midnight prior to the surgery. patient will be given specific instructions from the surgeon or anesthesiologist about which medications he should or should not take prior to the surgery. patient should not take any blood thinning medications at least 5 days prior to your operation. This should be discussed with the surgeon at the preop visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. bile leak from common bile duct

    Assessment which type of repair (with T-tube or primary repair) bile leak will occurs more

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. hospital stay length

    Assessment which type of repair (with T-tube or primary repair) patient will stay in the hospital more after CBD exploration

    Measured: base line

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mhamed Abo Elhassan, Master (+201001311044, doctor_200799@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

bile leak from common bile duct (time frame: baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04108780, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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.
