title: Pathophysiological patterns of hepaticojejunostomy. Scintigraphic evaluation.
abstract: Results obtained using 99mTc HIDA in the follow-up of 17 patients who underwent hepaticojejunal bypass for different indications are examined. Results are also compared to other commonly used procedures such as echography and cholangiography (I.V. or PTC). Preliminary results appear to confirm that cholescintigraphy is an accurate procedure which allows an anterograde and physiologic visualization of the anastomosis.
