[Reoperations after biliary-digestive system anastomosis].
During the period from July 1997 to November 1999, five patients were electively surgically treated at the II Surgical Clinic due to stenosis of biliodigestive anastomoses. All patients were afflicted by stenosis of hepatojejunal anastomoses which were performed at various surgical clinics in order to correct iatrogenic lesions of biliary ducts. Re-operation was performed by use of the mucosa-to-mucosa anastomosis technique without transanastomotic drainage. There were two post-operational complications and no mortality. The authors discuss the safety and effectiveness of biliodigestive anastomoses carried out without transanastomotic drainage, and present the possibilities and indications of endoscopic therapy in these states.
