Utilization of a Modified Roux-en-Y Anastomosis as an Access point for Percutaneous Transjejunal Cholangioplasty of Recurrent Biliary Strictures
2019
Introduction
Biliary duct injuries pose a significant management challenge due to the propensity for recurrent biliary strictures. Development of a modified Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy known as a Hutson–Russell Pouch (HRP) provides a point of entry for repetitive access to the biliary tree. We aim to highlight the effectiveness of using the HRP as an access point for the long-term management of anastomotic and distal biliary strictures, thereby showcasing the value in potential widespread adoption of this modification to a standard surgical procedure.
