Side-to-side anastomosis of left intrahepatic bile duct and common bile duct and jejunum

When the bile duct is blocked due to stone obstruction, scar stenosis, tumor, etc., the surgeon often connects the bile duct and the intestine close to the obstruction site directly, so that bile can flow directly into the intestine through this interface, just like a blocked road. After the nowhere, in the middle of the road to open another way, this operation is called cholangioenterostomy. Treatment of diseases: common bile duct cysts Indication Common cholangiojejunostomy is mainly used in patients with stenosis (traumatic or inflammatory) of the common bile duct and patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones. Patients with a lower common bile duct cancer cannot be surgically removed, and sometimes this procedure can be performed. Surgical procedure The common operation of the common bile duct and the jejunum (the upper part of the small intestine) is complicated and time-consuming. However, this operation allows a long jejunum below the common bile duct to be used to transport bile. The chyme flows back into the common bile duct over a long distance, so the chance of causing biliary infection is small. This is the biggest advantage of this operation. .
