[Hepatoporto-appendicostomy. Our experience in 3 cases of biliary cystic disease].
This report details our preliminary experience with hepaticoporto-appendicostomy in three patients with biliary cystic disease. The surgical procedure was total resection of choledochal cyst and vascularized appendix interposition between biliary tree and duodenum. The children have been followed by clinical, ultrasonography and endoscopic (ECPR) during a period between 1-4 years. There was no episodes of ascending colangitis. All the patients remain free of jaundice and the biochemical abnormalities have become normal three months after interposition. Our results suggest that this procedure is more physiologic than the standard bilioenteric derivation Roux-in-Y, because allow bile to enter freely to duodenum and prevent reflux, stasis and ascending cholangitis. This procedure allows postoperative endoscopic valoration, not possible in another kind of bilioenteric derivations.
