Introducción

La litiasis intrahepática, muy frecuente en países del sudeste asiático, es rara en países europeos y se asocia a estenosis y dilataciones de los radicales biliares, lo que puede obligar a realizar resecciones hepáticas para su resolución definitiva

Pacientes y método

Presentamos 4 pacientes con litiasis intrahepática que requirieron una hepatectomía para su resolución. En un caso se asoció a enfermedad de Caroli del lóbulo hepático derecho que precisó hepatectomía derecha, y los 3 casos restantes presentaron estenosis de radicales segmentarios del lóbulo hepático derecho y precisaron segmentectomías para su resolución. La litiasis intrahepática se manifestó clínicamente por un cólico hepático en un caso y una colangitis aguda en 3 casos. La exploración preoperatoria e intraoperatoria fundamental para el diagnóstico fue la ecografía. Las exploraciones radiológicas (tomografía computarizada, resonancia magnética y técnicas con contraste, preoperatorias e intraoperatorias) fueron importantes para el diagnóstico definitivo

Resultados

No existió mortalidad intraoperatoria ni postoperatoria. Dos pacientes presentaron un absceso subfrénico resuelto con drenaje radiológico. No ha recurrido la litiasis intrahepática tras un seguimiento medio de 29 meses (rango, 17-38)

Conclusiones

La hepatectomía resuelve definitivamente aquellos pacientes con litiasis intrahepática cuando existen estenosis y/o dilataciones lobares o segmentarias. Si preoperatoriamente no se sospecha la litiasis intrahepática, los pacientes pueden requerir varias intervenciones para su resolución definitiva

Introduction

Although common in south-east Asia, intrahepatic lithiasis is infrequent in Europe. Because it is associated with stenosis and dilatations of the biliary ducts, hepatic resection may be required for its definitive cure

Patients and methods

We present four patients with intrahepatic lithiasis who required hepatectomy for its resolution. One patient presented associated Caroli’s disease of the right hepatic lobe requiring right hepatectomy and the remaining three patients presented stenosis of the segmental ducts of the right hepatic lobe and required segmentectomy. Intrahepatic lithiasis was clinically manifested by hepatic colic in one patient and acute cholangitis in three. Preoperative and intraoperative ultrasonography was fundamental to the diagnosis. Radiological investigations (computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and pre and intraoperative contrast techniques) were important for the definitive diagnosis

Results

There was no intra or postoperative mortality. Two patients presented subphrenic abscesses that were resolved with radiological drainage. There has been no recurrence of intrahepatic lithiasis after a mean follow-up of 29 months (range: 17-38)

Conclusions

Hepatectomy provides definitive resolution in patients with intrahepatic lithiasis and stenosis and/or dilatation of the lobar or segmental ducts. Unless intrahepatic lithiasis is suspected in the preoperative period, patients may have to undergo several operations for definitive resolution
