Spontaneous esophageal rupture carries high morbidity and mortality. The main prognostic factor is early diagnosis, before 12 hours, and appropriate treatment. This is a case report of a 41-years-old man with late esophageal rupture diagnosis treated successfully with transmediatinal esophagectomy and esophageal-gastric tube cervical anastomosis.

RACIONAL: O tratamento da coledocolitíase continua controverso, podendo ser realizado por pancreatocolangiografia retrógrada endoscópica pré-operatória seguida de videolaparocolecistectomia ou por videolaparocolecistectomia com exploração de vias biliares. Há relato na literatura de taxa de insucesso da pancreatocolangiografia retrógrada endoscópica pré-operatória em torno de 6%. OBJETIVO: Apresentar caso de uma paciente que necessitou da realização de CPRE intra-operatória para resolução de coledocolitíase tratada sem êxito por CPRE. RELATO DO CASO: Paciente de 45 anos, admitida na emergência com quadro de dor abdominal em epigástrio e hipocôndrio direito. A ultra-sonografia da admissão evidenciou coledocolitíase, sendo ela encaminhada para pancreatocolangiografia retrógrada endoscópica pré-operatória onde não houve sucesso na cateterização da papila. Foi optado então pela realização de videolaparocolecistectomia com exploração de via biliar por pancreatocolangiografia retrógrada endoscópica pré-operatória intra-operatoria com a cateterização da papila direcionada por fio guia passado pelo ducto cístico. Foi realizada duodenoscopia com captura do fio guia que serviu para a passagem do papilótomo dando seqüência à pancreatocolangiografia retrógrada endoscópica pré-operatória e retirada dos cálculos. A paciente evoluiu satisfatoriamente tendo alta no 2º dia do pós-operatório. CONCLUSÃO: A abordagem da coledocolitíase por pancreatocolangiografia retrógrada endoscópica intra-operatória seguida de videolaparocolecistectomia, mostrou-se segura e eficaz.

BACKGROUND:Choledocholithiasis treatment is still a controversial topic, being done either with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography before laparoscopic cholecystectomy or by the use of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and exploration of common bile duct. According to literature, there is an unsuccessful rate of 6% when utilizing pre-operative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. AIM: To report a case of a patient who underwent intraoperative CPRE as a solution to choledocholithiasis treated unsuccessfully by CPRE. CASE REPORT:- We present a case report of a 45-year-old patient, female, who was admitted to an emergency room with abdominal pain in the epigastrius and right hypochondrium. Ultrasonography showed choledocholithiasis, and the patient was indicated to a pre-operative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, by which the catheterization of papilla was unsuccessful. The patient was then, submitted to a laparoscopic cholecystectomy and exploration of the common bile ducts by preoperative and intraoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with the catheterization of papilla being guided by a guiding thread which was introduced through the cystic duct. A duodenoscopy with the capture of the guiding thread was performed, allowing the passage of papillotome, giving sequence to the preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, by which gallstones were removed. The patient had a satisfying recovery being discharged on the second post-operative day. CONCLUSION: In this case, the choledocholithiasis management by intraoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with laparoscopic cholecystectomy was considered both safe and effective.
