Abstract

27 patients operated for bile duct injuries as a complication of cholecystectomy were analyzed. The methods of surgical management in "fresh" bile duct injuries and delayed complications such as stenosis of bile ducts or anastomosis and recurrent cholangitis were discussed. Mucosa to mucosa, Roux-en-Y anastomosis, without splinting drains seems to be the best way to restore bile flow to digestive tract.
