ANASTAMOTIC STRICTURE WITH BILIARY CALCULI IN POST OPERATIVE CASES OF CHOLEDOCHAL CYST
P. Mohanavel, Nirankumar Samuel, J. Krishnamohan
Abstract :
Choledochal cyst is a congenital dilation of the bile duct that requires surgery for its correction. Long term follow up of children that undergo surgery for choledochal cyst have documented complications like cystolithiasis followed by cholangitis, acute pancreatitis, hepatolithiasis, malignancy, portal hypertension and chronic pancreatitis. Dabbas et al , reported a 5% incidence in biliary stone formation1. We report three such cases of biliary lithiasis after surgery for choledochal cyst. Biliary reconstruction and excision of the cyst holds excellent prognosis in the treatment of choledochal cysts. Post operative close surveillance of patients undergoing cyst excision and hepaticojejunostomy must be strongly advocated to identify early and late complications. Detection of early intrahepatic biliary stenosis and creation of a wide anastomosis are essential to prevent anastamotic strictures and biliary stone formation.
