title: Treatment of transient posttraumatic bile-duct stenosis by laparoscopic-assisted cholecystotomy.
abstract: A 10-year-old boy developed severe obstructive jaundice following blunt abdominal trauma. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography and magnetic resonance cholangiography revealed a stricture of the common bile duct. A cholecystostomy tube was inserted under laparoscopic guidance. After temporary bile drainage and a cholecystoenteric bypass the patient recovered.
