Recanalization of the bile duct by using percutaneous and endoscopic methods after iatrogenic injury

摘要

Bile leaks are an uncommon adverse event after biliary surgery. Iatrogenic common bile duct (CBD) injuries are particularly uncommon. However, they lead to substantial morbidity and often require surgical intervention, possibly with the creation of Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. We describe a case demonstrating the successful combination of endoscopic and percutaneous methods to recanalize the bile duct after iatrogenic injury.
