Spontaneous perforation of CBD in infant is a rare but fatal disease. We report a case of bile leakage from common bile duct in 11 months old girl with progressive abdominal distension and vomiting, preoperatively diagnosed by hepatobiliary scan with 99mTc-DISIDA, which was confirmed by surgery, Operative cholangiogram showed a small perforation at the confluence of cystic duct and common bile duct with mild fusiform dilatation, and no definite abnormality in confluence of the common bile duct and pancreatic duct. Simple drainage of the free peritoneal bilous fluid and T-tube drainage were performed without any evidence of the complication. Patient was inevitable for 6 months OPD follow-up examination.

Despite the synergistic effect of Opisthorchis viverrini and Helicobacter pylori co-infection on pathogenesis of severe hepatobiliary abnormalities (HBA) including advanced periductal fibrosis and replace with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) have been established, the immune response to H. pylori in O. viverrini infected population has never been explored. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the antibody responses to 2 immunogenic H. pylori proteins in O. viverrini-infected patients with HBA and CCA. The risk analysis by multinomial logistic regression revealed that GroEL seropositivity was associated with higher risks of hepatobiliary abnormalities and CCA with adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) of 2.11 (95% CI=1.20-3.71, P=0.008) and 2.13 (95% CI=1.21-3.75, P=0.009), respectively. These findings indicate that GroEL seropositivity might be a biomarker for early detection of O. viverrini associated HBA and CCA.

Gilbert's syndrome is one that shows a benign course with intermittent unconjugate hyperbilirubinemia without any evidence of hepatobiliary tract disease or hemolysis. It is often found in a health examination or blood laboratory test by chance. In particular, patients who are taking drugs, including herbal medicine should be careful for their medication due to the possibility of associations with changes in liver function because of drug metabolism, sometimes they have to quit the use of the medication for a certain period and often they should get an additional test. Two male patients increased serum total bilirubin level without other systemic symptoms in screening test for clinical herb medicine pharmacokinetics study. Therefor they was diagnosed with suspected Gilbert's syndrome. They had been calory deprivation test with 24 hours fasting state. They also performed liver function test and ultrasonogram for evaluation of hepatobiliary tract disease. Total serum bilirubin was markedly increased, especially unconjugate bilirubin level higher over the two times than base line after they had been calory deprivation for 24 hours, They was not found another abnormality all laboratory results and physical examination. This study is a report on two cases of hyperbilirubinemia, diagnosed as Gilbert's syndrome, which were found in the process of a clinical pharmacokinetic study of a decoction of medicinal herbs.

Objective: To investigate whether the diagnostic performance of CT angiography (CTA) could be improved by modifying the conventional criterion (anastomosis site abnormality) to diagnose hepatic artery occlusion (HAO) after liver transplantation (LT) in suspected patients with Doppler ultrasound (US) abnormalities. Materials and Methods: One hundred thirty-four adult LT recipients (88 males and 46 females; mean age, 52.7 years) with suspected HAO on Doppler US (40 HAO and 94 non-HAO according to the reference standards) were included. We evaluated 1) abnormalities in the HA anastomosis, categorized as a cutoff, ≥ 50% stenosis at the anastomotic site, or diffuse stenosis at both graft and recipient sides around the anastomosis, and 2) abnormalities in the distal run-off, including invisibility or irregular, faint, and discontinuous enhancement. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy of the conventional (considering anastomosis site abnormalities alone) and modified CTA criteria (abnormalities in both the anastomosis site and distal run-off) for the diagnosis of HAO were calculated and compared using the McNemar test. Results: By using the conventional criterion to diagnose HAO, the sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy were 100% (40/40), 74.5% (70/94), 62.5% (40/64), 100% (70/70), and 82.1% (110/134), respectively. The modified criterion for diagnosing HAO showed significantly increased specificity (93.6%, 88/94) and accuracy (93.3%, 125/134) compared to that with the conventional criterion (p = 0.001 and 0.002, respectively), although the sensitivity (92.5%, 37/40) decreased slightly without statistical significance (p = 0.250). Conclusion: The modified criterion considering abnormalities in both the anastomosis site and distal run-off improved the diagnostic performance of CTA for HAO in suspected patients with Doppler US abnormalities, particularly by increasing the specificity.

목 적: ceftriaxone은 제 3세대 반합성 cephalosporin제제로 강력한 항균작용이 있어 중증 감염성질환의 치료에 널리 사용되고 있으며, 합병증으로 항생제로서는 유일하게 담낭오니를 형성할 수 있다. 최근의 보고들에 의하면 ceftriaxone의 사용으로 발생된 담낭오니는 약제투여를 중단하면 자연 소실되는 양성경과를 취하는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 드물게 담낭절제술이 시행된 경우도 있었다. 이에 저자들은 ceftriaxone 투여로 발생된 담낭오니의 발생빈도, 유발위험인자, 예후 등을 알아보기 위해 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법: 1997년 3월부터 1998년 2월까지 서울대학교병원 소아과에 세균성감염이 의심되어 입원하여 ceftriaxone으로 치료 받으면서 복부 초음파검사가 가능했던 21례 중에서 담낭오니의 발생이 확인된 8명의 환자들을 조사대상으로 하였으며 추적관찰 초음파검사는 6례에서 시행되었다. 선행하는 간질환이나 신기능이 떨어져 있는 경우는 본 조사 대상에서 제외하였다. 결 과: 1) 총 21례의 환자에서 ceftriaxone으로 치료 도중에 복부 초음파검사가 가능했으며, 38%(남아 4례, 여아 4례)에서 담낭오니의 발생이 확인되었다. 2) 담낭오니가 발생된 군의 나이가 $6.3{\pm}2.9$세로 발생하지 않은 군의 나이 $2.2{\pm}3.1$세보다 의미있게 많았으며(p<0.05), 24개월 이후의 연령군에서 이전의 연령군에서보다 더 잘생겼다(p<0.05). 3) 담낭오니는 8례 모두에서 고음영의 에코를 보였으며, 5례에서 후벽음영이 동반되었다. 4) 추적관찰 초음파검사가 가능했던 6례 중 2례는 약제의 투여가 끝난 때로부터 14일째, 2례는 30일째, 나머지 2례는 80일째 시행한 복부초음파검사에서 각각 정상 담낭소견을 보였다. 5) 담낭오니의 발생과 ceftriaxone의 투여용량, 투여기간, 금식, 원인질환 등은 의미있는 상관관계를 보이지 않았다. 결 론: ceftriaxone 투여로 인한 담낭오니의 발생은 나이가 가장 중요한 위험인자로 24개월 이상의 연령군에서 의미있게 발생빈도가 높았다. 그러므로 나이가 24개월 이상의 환자에게 고용량($60{\sim}100\;mg{\cdot}Kg^{-1}{\cdot}day^{-1})$의 ceftriaxone을 투여한 경우와 약제 투여 후에 간담도계 증상이 발생된 모든 경우에는 기본적으로 담낭 초음파검사를 시행하는 것이 바람직하다고 사료된다.
