[Surgical therapy of inflammatory and malignant strictures of the common bile duct].
Although there are growing possibilities of interventional endoscopic treatment of benign and malignant stenosis of the distal common bile duct the definitive operative drainage by terminolateral hepaticojejunostomy is in many cases the therapy of choice. In patients with chronic pancreatitis and bile duct stricture the modified duodenum preserving pancreatic head resection ("Beger operation") enables a resection of the inflammatory mass together with a drainage of the bile. Of 391 patients from our clinic being operated due to a bile duct stricture 337 underwent a biliary drainage together with a pancreatic head resection. Early postoperative biliary complications were in 0.3 % strictures of the duct and 1.5 % bile fistulas. Half of those complications could be managed conservatively. In high volume centers the operative therapy of distal common bile duct stenosis is a safe procedure with high patency rate.
