[The place of intrahepatic peripheral anastomoses in neoplastic obstruction of the upper bile duct junction. Report of 20 cases (author's transl)].
In 32 patients with carcinoma involving the bifurcation of the hepatic ducts 17 intrahepatic cholangiojejunostomies and 3 intrahepatic gastrotomies were performed. The post-operative mortality rate is high (35%), the median survival time is 9 months. These results suggest that resection should by attempted when possible or dilatation used rather than by-pass of the tumor.
