Backgrounds/Aims: In Korea, pancreatic cancer and "gallbladder and extrahepatic bile duct cancer" were ranked the 8th and 9th most frequent cancers in 2019 and the 4th and 6th most common causes of cancer deaths in 2020, respectively. Methods: This review provides national cancer statistics and secular trends of 207,521 patients with gallbladder (n = 44,178), extrahepatic bile duct (n = 61,856), and pancreatic cancer (n = 101,487) between 1999 and 2019 in Korea. Results: The crude incidence rate in both sexes increased in the gallbladder (2.8 to 5.4 per 100,000), extrahepatic bile duct (3.6 to 9.0), and pancreatic cancer (5.5 to 15.8). The age-standardized incidence rate in both sexes significantly increased in the extrahepatic bile duct (3.7 to 4.1) and pancreatic (5.6 to 7.6) cancers but decreased in gallbladder cancer (2.9 to 2.4). The overall 5-year relative survival rate increased in the gallbladder (21.8% to 30.6%), extrahepatic bile duct (23.1% to 27.5%), and pancreatic (8.5% to 13.3%) cancers. Between 2006 and 2019, the proportion of localized or regional stages remained stable. The proportion of surgical treatment within the first 4 months after diagnosis was relatively higher in the gallbladder (42.2%) and extrahepatic bile duct (45.9%) cancers than in pancreatic cancer (22.2%). Conclusions: The crude incidence and mortality rates of the gallbladder, extrahepatic bile duct, and pancreatic cancer are steadily increasing in Korea, and the prognosis remains poor. Early detection, active application of surgical treatment, and minimization of the proportion of untreated patients are required to improve the survival rates of these cancers.

목 적: 지금까지의 경복부 초음파를 이용한 간외담관에 대한 검사는 주로 담낭과 간외 담도, 즉 총수담관(CBD)만을 확인하는 수준의 검사가 전부인 것처럼 여겨져 왔다. 그러나 저자들은 임상에서의 다양한 경험을 바탕으로 간외담도의 비정상 확장에 대해 분석할 수 있고, 담도질환 유무 및 관련성을 평가하는데 필요한 기술적 접근 방법에 대한 새로운 이론적 토대를 마련하였다. 이 새로운 이론을 기본으로 신뢰성 있는 검사 성적을 얻기 위하여 일정기간 교육 후 scanning 훈련을 시켜 그 효과를 평가함으로서 담관질환 검사의 새로운 기준을 정립코자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 초음파 교육생 30명을 대상으로 간외담관에 대한 새로운 이론에 근거하여 기술적 접근 방법에 대한 교육을 전수한 후 학생 1인당 3시간(30분${\times}$6회)을 배당하여 scanning 훈련을 집중였다. 교육 방법은 강사와 학생 1:1 방식으로 하였다. Scanning 훈련 후 평가 기준으로 모든 학생에게 5분 내에 간외담관 중에서 좌우 담관으로부터 (1) 담낭관 합류부(간외담관 및 담낭관), (2) 췌장 상부담관, (3) 췌두부내 담관, (4) 유두부내 공통관 등 네 분절을 명확하게 구분된 개념으로 scan하게 한 후 정확도를 평가하였다. 결 과: 기존의 교육과 훈련 방식은 간외담관에 대한 경복부 초음파검사의 신뢰도가 매우 낮고, 췌장 상부 담관에만 국한적으로 영상화할 수 있었다. 그러나 새로운 이론에 근거한 교육과 훈련을 마친 후 성적의 평가는 모든 학생(30명)이 (1) 담낭관 합류부(간외담관 및 담낭관), (2) 췌장 상부담관까지 객관성 있게 접근하였다. 24명의 학생이 (3) 췌두부내 담관 말단까지 접근하였으며, 1명의 학생만이 (4) 유두부내 공통관까지 영상화할 수 있었다. 결 론: 간내외 담관의 평가는 간내인성, 담관성 그리고 병태생리학적 다면 평가가 이뤄져야 하지만, 경복부초음파검사에 의해 간외담관을 유두부내 공통관까지 객관적이고 신뢰성 있게 영상화시킬 수 있다면 단순 감별진단 목적으로 시행하는 ERCP같은 환자에게 고통이 수반된 침습적인 검사를 대폭 줄일 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 저자들이 제시한 새로운 검사방법으로 간외 담관에 대한 기술적 접근 방법을 scanning 훈련하여 임상에 적용하게 된다면 초음파의 객관적인 신뢰도를 높일 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Congenital duplication of the extrahepatic bile duct (DEBD) is an unusual anomaly of the biliary system. It occurs due to inability of the embryological duplex biliary system to regress. DEBD has various subtypes depending on the morphology and opening of the aberrant common bile duct. It can have distinct complications. We encountered a 38-year-old lady who experienced pain in the right upper abdomen along with a low-grade fever. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography revealed DEBD with multiple calculi in the right hepatic duct (ductolithiasis) and joining of the right hepatic duct with the left hepatic duct in the intrapancreatic region. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography failed to clear the calculi from the right duct. They were then managed by common bile duct exploration and roux-en-Y right hepaticojejunostomy for biliary drainage. Her postoperative period was uneventful. She is currently doing well after three months of follow-up. Hence, a proper preoperative delineation of such rare anomalies is essential. It could avoid inadvertent injury to the bile duct and operative complications.

Extrahepatic bile duct injury is commonly associated with hepatic, duodenal, or pancreatic injuries, and isolated extrahepatic bile duct injury is rare. We report a patient who presented with an isolated extrahepatic bile duct injury after blunt trauma. A 50-year-old man was referred to our hospital after having suffered a fall down injury. His laboratory findings showed hyperbiliribinemia with elevated aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase level. Initial abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed a mild degree of hemoperitoneum without evidence of abdominal solid organ injury. On the 3rd day of hospitalization, the patient complained of dyspnea and severe abdominal discomfort. Follow-up abdominal CT showed no significant interval change. Owing to the patient's condition, Emergency laparotomy revealed a large amount of bile-containing fluid collection and about 1 cm in size laceration on the left lateral side of the common hepatic duct. Primary repair of the injured bile duct with T-tube insertion was performed On postoperative day (POD) 30, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography showed minimal bile leakage and endoscopic sphincteroplasty and endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage were performed. On POD 61, the T-tube was removed and the patient was discharged.

Reports about FDG PET in biliary tumor are limited and there are almost no reports regarding its efficacy. Biliary tumor is divided to intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct cancer, and intrahepatic bile duct cancer can be further divided to peripheral type which occurs at lobular duct and hilar type which occurs at hepatic hilum. Surgical resection is the only curative method for bile duct tumor, and accurate staging plays an important role in deciding treatment modality. Among intrahepatic bile duct tumors, peripheral type and hilar type have the same histological characteristics, but different clinical manifestations and tumor growth pattern. On PET image, FDG uptake is also different between peripheral type and hilar type. Most of the former shows high FDG uptake at primary and metastasis site so it is very useful for determining stage and changing treatment plans. However, the later is diversified among low uptake and very high uptake. The FDG uptake pattern of hilar type is similar to that of extrahepatic bile duct cancer, and mucinous component is an important factor, which affects FOG uptake. When tumor cells are scattered in desmoplatsic stroma, then FDG uptake is low as well. In contrast, when FDG uptake is high, it is likely to be tubular type which has high tumor density. Tumor growth pattern also affects FDG uptake. Nodular type mostly takes higher FDG compared to infiltrative type. There are many cases where benign inflammatory diseases take high FDG that PET alone can not distinguish malignant lesion from benign lesion. In conclusion, studies about PET using FDG are still limited. Thus, it is hard to make accurate conclusion about the roles of PET or PET/CT in biliary cancers, but peripheral type intrahepatic bile duct cancers and mass forming hilar and extrahepatic bile duct cancers appear to be good indications performing FDG PET or PET/CT.

In order to examine the effect of extrahepatic cholestasis induced by common bile duct ligation on the hepatic function, the pharmacokinetics of antipyrine and d-propranolol were investigated in rats. In addition, in an attempt to observe the degree of direct hepatic injury, light and electron microscopic observations and conventional pathologic test using serum were performed. Five days after common bile duct ligation, antipyrine(15 mg/kg) and d-propranolol(3 mg/kg) were intravenously administrated to the rats, respectively. The total clearances of antipyrine and d-propranolol were significantly(p<0.05) decreased. Because hepatic clearance of antipyrine poorly extracted by the liver and that of d-propranolol highly extracted by the liver are respectively dependent on the hepatic intrinsic clearance and the hepatic blood flow, it may be concluded that extrahepatic cholestasis following five days after common bile duct ligation decreased the hepatic intrinsic clearance and the hepatic blood flow. SGPT, SGOT, cholesterol, bilirubin(total bilirubin, direct bilirubin) and alkaline phosphatase were significantly increased(p<0.05). The proliferation of bile ducts was prominent, and degeneration and necrosis of hepatocytes were observed by light microscope. Also, ultrastructurally, bile canaliculi were containing the amorphous materials and losing microvilli, and SER and RER in hepatocytes were dilated and vacuolated.

Congenital web formations are extremely rare anomalies of the extrahepatic biliary tree. We herein report a case of common bile duct septum combined with multiple intrahepatic bile duct strictures in a 74-year-old female patient who was successfully treated with radiological intervention. The patient initially visited the hospital because of upper abdominal pain. Imaging studies revealed multifocal strictures with dilatation in both intra- and extrahepatic ducts; the final clinical diagnosis was congenital common bile duct web combined with multiple intrahepatic duct strictures. Surgical treatment was not indicated because multiple biliary strictures were untreatable, and the disease was clinically diagnosed as benign. The multiple strictures were extensively dilated twice through bilateral percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) for 2 months. After 1 month of observation, PTBD catheters were successfully removed. The patient is doing well at 6 months after completion of the radiological intervention, with the maintenance of normal liver function. Congenital web of the bile duct is very rare, and its treatment may vary depending on the patterns of biliary stenosis. In cases where surgical intervention is not indicated for congenital web and its associated disease, radiological intervention with balloon dilatation can be a viable therapeutic option.

Serum $\alpha$-D-mannosidase isozyme activities were measured in rats with ethanol intoxication combined with extrahepatic cholestasis induced by common bile duct ligation for the manifestation of the biochemical background of drinking hazards under the hepatobiliary disease. When chronic ethanol intoxication was combine with extraheparlc cholestasis, the activities of the rat's serum cytosolic, Iysosomal and Golgi $\alpha$-D-mannosidase isozymes increased at a more significant rate than those of the cholestasis alone. However, when acute ethanol intoxication was combined with extrahepatic cholestasis, the activities of the above isozymes were seen in the cholestasis alone. The results suggested that the elevated activities of these isozymes in chronic ethanol intoxication with cholestasis rather than in cholestasis alone were indications of increased hepatic damages, which caused these isozymes to leak into the blood in great quantity. Accordingly, the resulting data supported the fact that alcoholic drinks were enzymologically harmful to the hepatobiliary disease.

Hepatic subcellular $\alpha$-D-mannosidases activities and its Km and Vmax values were determined in chronic ethanol intoxicated rats with extrahepatic cholestasis induced by common bile duct ligation to manifest the biochemical background of alcohol drinking hazard under the hepatobiliary disease. In case of extrahepatic cholestasis, chronic ethanol intoxication in animals led to the increased activities of liver Golgi and microsomal $\alpha$-D-mannosidase as well as the Vmax values of these enzymes. However, the difference of Km values on hepatic subcellular enzymes were not found between the experimental groups. Therefore, the results indicate that the liver Golgi and microsomal $\alpha$-D-mannosidase may be more induced in chronic ethanol intoxication animals in case of cholestasis. Accordingly, the resulting data supported the fact that alcoholic drinks may led to enhancement of the hepatobiliary liver damage.
