[A case of bile peritonitis caused by jejunal perforation after radiofrequency ablation for the multiple liver metastases from cholangiocarcinoma successfully treated with various interventional radiological procedures after pancreatoduodenectomy].
The case is a man in his 50s who had a curative surgical resection for cholangiocarcinoma in August 2006. The lesion was judged to be T3, N1, H0, P0, M0 and Stage III, and then he received various treatments including thermotherapy, CD3-activated T lymphocyte therapy. Then from June 2007, he was treated for multiple liver metastases by GEM, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), stereotactic radiotherapy, S-1, dendritic cell therapy. But there were multiple liver metastases whose maximum size was 17 mm in diameter and he was introduced to our hospital. In September 2008, ultrasonography and CT fluoroscopy guided RFA was operated on him for the liver tumors with a safety margin. But 2 hours after the ablation, he complained of epigastralgia. CT examination revealed a bile peritonitis caused by perforation of the jejunum which has been anastomosed to the pancreas, and was adjacent to the avascular area caused by RFA in segment 4 of the liver. We treated him by various interventional procedures including percutaneous drainage for bile leakage, pancreatic fistula, abscess in peritoneal cavity, and biloma in segment 3. Fifty days after the ablation, T-tube, with which pancreatic fluid and bile was induced from the cecal portion of the anastomosed jejunum to the anal side slipping through the perforated point, was successfully inserted through right flank, and resulted in complete recovery from a major technical complication of the bile peritonitis.
