Purspose
Iatrogenic bile duct injuries (IBDI) with intrahepatic involvement are a serious and challenging surgical complication that can have disastrous consequences in terms of morbidity and mortality.
Methods
We collected the patients with IBDI type (E4) between January 1991 and March 2020 in our hospital. The objective of the study was to present the long-term results of a extraglissonian approach and intraglissonian biliary reconstruction in a series of patients with intrahepatic bile duct injuries after cholecystectomy. We also detail our preoperative management and the standardization of the technique.
Results
An extraglissonian approach with partial hepatic resection of the base of segments 4b and 5 and intraglissonian Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy for biliary reconstruction using to several branches was performed in 10 patients with E4 Strassberg type intrahepatic lesions. Only one patient had postoperative bile leak (Clavien 3a). Surgical time was 260 min (IQR, 210–490). We left transanastomotic catheter (between 2 and 5) in situ for 3 and 6 months after surgery. The patients remained asymptomatic over a median follow-up of 169 months (IQR 129–234).
Conclusion
This biliary reconstruction technique obtains positive long-term outcomes in patients with severe intrahepatic lesions.
