INTRAHEPATIC CHOLANGIOJEJUNOSTOMY FOR MALIGNANT HILAR BILIARY OBSTRUCTION: APPROACH TO THE LEFT HEPATIC DUCT.


ABSTRACT: Biliary enteric anastomosis for relief of biliary obstruction caused by malignancy at the confluence of the bile ducts can be difficult due to non availability of an adequate length of duct for anastomosis. This paper describes an approach to the left hepatic duct to decompress the biliary tree and its successful application in 11 of 12 patients who presented with malignant hilar obstruction.
