Duct-to-mucosa Sutures

Duct-to-mucosa sutures are a surgical anastomosis technique that directly connects the epithelial lining of a duct, commonly the pancreatic duct, with the mucosa of the intestine. The method uses precise interrupted or continuous stitches to align the duct opening with the intestinal surface, allowing secretions to drain into the bowel while supporting a secure seal. In cancer research and surgery, this approach is especially relevant after pancreatic tumor resection, where reconstruction must preserve digestive function and limit complications such as leakage or stricture. Studying suture placement, tissue healing, and anastomotic integrity helps improve postoperative outcomes and guide refinements in pancreatic procedures.

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy with Indocyanine Green Fluorescence: Choledochoscopic Stone Extraction and Primary Duct Suture

0 Views •

2025

The integrated technique described in this protocol achieves real-time biliary mapping via indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence, minimally invasive stone clearance under direct visualization, and secure primary duct repair (6-0 PDS), eliminating T-tube drainage.

Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration Followed by Primary Suture Using a Modified Bile Duct Incision

2025

Cholecystolithiasis with common bile duct stones is a common disease; however, traditional common bile duct exploration has its own limitations. We propose a modified micro incision for laparoscopic common bile duct exploration aimed at reducing complication rates.

Intraoperative Video Consultation Following Bile Duct Transection Facilitates Direct OR Transfer for Robotic Hepaticojejunostomy at Tertiary Center

0 Views •

2026

Intraoperative video consultation expedites and improves surgical care. Here, we present a case where intraoperative video consultation between a rural hospital and an academic hepatobiliary surgeon facilitated immediate diagnosis of bile duct transection during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, direct to operating room transfer between centers, and injury repair with robotic-assisted Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy.

In the present protocol, a urethral stricture induction was developed in Wistar rats, followed by urethral reconstruction with a buccal mucosa graft. A retrograde urethrogram and laser Doppler assessment were performed, validating urethral reconstruction (after stricture formation) and graft placement.

Cannulation of the Mouse Submandibular Salivary Gland via the Wharton's Duct

2011

A protocol for the cannulation of the mouse submandibular salivary gland via the Wharton's duct is described. For this experiment, the trypan blue solution is used as a dyer to demonstrate how this technique effectively delivers infusions into the targeted gland, and to suggest the reliability of this new approach as a potential clinical drug/cell therapy for the regeneration of salivary glands.
