Anastomosis hepáticoduodenal. ¿Técnica de elección para el tratamiento de quiste de colédoco? Seguimiento a largo plazo de un estudio interinstitucional

The treatment of choice of choledochal cyst is the resection of the cyst and a enterobiliary reconstruction. Most authors prefer the hepatic- jejuno anastomosis with a Y Roux operation instead of hepatic-duodenal anastomosis because it is seldom complicated with ascendant cholangitis. We present our result in 15 patients operated with a hepatic-duodenal anastomosis, which were operated in three different institutions in our country, with a follow-up of 8 years and without documented cases of ascendant cholangitis. We believe this should be re-considered as a useful technique for the treatment of choledochal cyst.
