title: Traumatic rupture of the choledochus treated temporarily by Roux-en-Y entero-hepato-duodenal ligamentostomy.
abstract: The authors report on a 3-year-old boy who had traumatic rupture of the choledochus. Temporary internal drainage was achieved by Roux-en-Y end-to-side entero-hepato-duodenal ligamentostomy. Two months later, a standard Roux-en-Y end-to-side choledocho-jejunostomy was performed. Five years after the injury, the child is well and has no jaundice.
