title: [Initial results of restoration of bile flow in liver transplant].
abstract: The initial results of biliary reconstruction in 72 liver transplants realized in 62 patients, 50 adults and 12 children, are presented. Three reconstruction techniques were used: end-to-end choledocho-choledochostomy on a Kehr tube in 44 transplants (61.1%); choledocho-jejunostomy on a Roux-en-Y loop in 24 transplants (33.3%); double derivation cholecysto-choledocho-jejunostomy in 2 transplants (2.7%). The number of early complications related to biliary reconstruction was 5 (7.14%): 3 fistulas in the choledocho-choledochostomy series (6.8%) and 2 fistulas among the choledocho-jejunostomies (8.3%). All complications required reoperation and mortality was nil. Thirty-two months after the onset of the program, no late complications of the biliary anastomosis have been registered.
