Abstract

In 27 patients with disorders of the bile ducts we performed a bilio-jejunal anastomosis to eliminate the stenosis. The letality rate was 3.7%, the rate of complications following operation was 30%. After a period of 3 to 15 years 15 patients agreed to an inpatient follow-up examination. 80% of them regarded the postoperative results as subjectively good or very good. 60% were again completely able to work. Biochemical examinations, ultrasonography and sequencescintigraphy of the liver showed a higher rate of irregular findings despite missing symptoms. These findings were due to icteric or cholangitic predamages before surgical treatment. The determination of Gamma-Glutamyl-Transferase and alcaline Phosphatase as well as ultrasonography and sequencescintigraphy of the liver proved to be the most sensitive methods for evaluation of the late results.
