  • Title: Laparoscopic transgastric endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for benign common bile duct stricture after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
    Author: Peters M, Papasavas PK, Caushaj PF, Kania RJ, Gagné DJ.
    Journal: Surg Endosc; 2002 Jul; 16(7):1106. PubMed ID: 11988790.
    Abstract:
    Access to the gastric remnant and duodenum is lost after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass for morbid obesity. Traditionally, a percutaneous transhepatic access to the common bile duct has been used to manage choledocholithiasis and duct strictures. We present a novel method of laparoscopic transgastric endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for managing a benign biliary stricture after a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
