Abstract
Of 30 cases of extrahepatic biliary atresia, treated during 1973–81, twenty five were males and five were females. Two thirds of these were admitted after 90 days of age. A correct pre operative diagnosis was made in 28 patients. Wedge liver biopsy and operative cholangiograms were done in all cases. Various types of drainage procedures done in 20 patients included hepatic porto- enterostomy 13, hepatic porto- cholecystostomy 4, choledochojejunostomy 2 and choledochoduodenostomy 1. Since 1980, an operating microscope had been used for the dissection at porta hepatis.
