Abstract

ObjectiveWe demonstrate a surgical technique involving construction of a hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) anastomosis that ensures even spacing between the sutures regardless of the size of the common bile duct. This is demonstrated via a series of illustrations followed by live demonstration of a HJ anastomosis created during a Whipple procedure. Video DescriptionOverall, this technique results in the creation of a tension-free hepaticojejunostomy anastomosis, that typically does not require stenting, is highly reliable and replicable regardless of the size of the common bile duct. It is also easily reproducible and easy to teach trainees.
