Possibilities of 3D modeling for determining treatment approach for minor bile duct injuries

Knowledge of extrahepatic biliary anatomy is important for surgeons involved in the diagnosis and treatment of biliary tract diseases. The use of new diagnostic methods allows for the development of optimal surgical treatment regimens and the prevention of postoperative complications. The presented clinical case illustrates the effectiveness of using 3D modeling in diagnosing biliary system anomalies to plan and adjust surgical treatment. In addition, the method allows for the monitoring of the postoperative formation of new duct-to-duct anastomoses and the adjustment of subsequent non-surgical treatment regimens. The use of a 1.5% meglumine sodium succinate solution in the postoperative treatment, due to its antioxidant/antihypoxant mechanism of action, contributed to reduction of inflammatory reactions, normalization of biochemical parameters, and improvement of subjective indicators of the patient's quality of life.
