  • Title: Subtotal cystectomy and antirefluxing hepaticoduodenostomy for choledochus cyst in children.
    Author: Sarkar PK, Kumar D, Biswas SK, Pan G.
    Journal: Z Kinderchir; 1989 Dec; 44(6):340-2. PubMed ID: 2696274.
    Abstract:
    Total cystectomy with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy for choledochus cyst often causes malabsorption and other problems as a result of jejunal biliary diversion bypassing the duodenum. Restoration of near normal anatomy can only return the normal physiological harmony and assure normality. A simple antirefluxing hepaticoduodenostomy has proved successful.
