Abstract
Intraoperative damage to the bile ducts following laparoscopic cholecystectomy is still one of the urgent problems of modern minimally invasive surgery. In some cases, these complications lead to patient disability, deterioration in their quality of life and need for redo surgery including technically difficult procedures. Modern endoscopic technologies are essential in the treatment of postoperative benign strictures of the common bile duct. These approaches can heal some patients after intraoperative bile duct trauma. Nevertheless, endoscopic treatment is ineffective or impossible in some clinical situations. Reconstructive Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy through laparotomy is a preferable procedure in these patients for many years. However, we report successful laparoscopic reconstructive Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy in a patient with postoperative stricture of the common bile duct Halperin type 0.
