The aim of the study was analysis of long-term results in patients following different methods of the surgical treatment of iatrogenic bile duct injuries.Material and methods. Between January 1990 and March 2005, 138 patients - 37 (26.8%) men and 101 (73.2%) women were operated for IBDI in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Silesian Medical University in Katowice. The mean age was 52.9 (18-85) years. The following reconstructions were performed: Roux-Y hepaticojejunostomy (49), end-to-end ductal anastomosis (45), jejunal interposition hepaticoduodenostomy (27), bile duct plastic reconstruction (6), choledochoduodenostomy (2) and others (8). Long-term results were assessed based on anamnesis, physical examination and accessory investigations (laboratory an ultrasonography of the abdominal cavity). Obtained results were classified according Terblanche scale. Quality of life was classified according to the Karnofsky Performance Score.Results. Information of long-term results was obtained in 91 (66%) patients. Long-term results according to Terblanche classification were the following: I grade - 58 (63.7%) patients, II grade - 14 (15.4%) patients, III grade - 13 (14.3%) patients, IV grade (recurrent anastomosis stricture) - 6 (6.6%) patients. Quality of life according to Karnofsky Performance Score was very good (the highest number of 100 points) in most (40.5%) patients.Conclusions. Surgical reconstructions of IBDI are procedures that require maximal precision and knowledge of different methods of reconstruction of biliary tract continuity. The choice of the method depends on the situation in the operation area. Achievement of successful long-term results is possible in referral centers experienced in hepatobiliary surgery.

The aim of the study was the analysis of early complications following different methods of surgical treatment for iatrogenic biliary injury (IBI).Material and methods. From January 1990 to March 2005, 138 patients with iatrogenic biliary injuries were operated on in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of Silesian Medical University in Katowice. The most frequent iatrogenic biliary injuries were caused by open and laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Clinical symptoms in patients included the following: pain, jaundice, pruritus, nausea, vomitus and cholangitis signs. The following diagnostic examinations were performed before surgical procedures: laboratory investigations and radiological examinations - including ultrasonography of the abdominal cavity, cholangiography, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance-cholangiography. The level of biliary injury was classified according to Bismuth. The following reconstruction methods were performed: Roux-Y hepaticojejunostomy in 49 patients, end-to-end ductal anastomosis in 45 patients, jejunal interposition hepaticoduodenostomy in 27 patients, bile duct plastic reconstruction in 6 patients, choledochoduodenostomy in 2 patients and other methods in 8 patients.Results. The mean duration of hospitalization was 31 days. The mean duration of operation was 4.5 hours. Early complications were observed in 22 (16%) patients. The following early complications were noted: bile collection in 11 patients, intra-abdominal abscess in 4, wound infection in 13, peritonitis in 2, cholangitis in 2, eventeration in 1, pneumonia in 7 and acute circulatory insufficiency in 3 patients. Seven (5%) early re-operations were performed: 2 due to biliary-enteric anastomosis dehiscence, 1 due to eventeration, and 4 due to bile collection or intra-abdominal abscess. Three (2%) hospital deaths were noted: 1 due to due acute circulatory insufficiency, 1 due to liver necrosis and acute respiratory and circulatory insufficiency, and 1 due to biliary-enteric anastomosis dehiscence, bile collection, peritonitis, and acute circulatory and respiratory insufficiency.Conclusions. Surgical reconstructions of iatrogenic biliary injuries are procedures that require maximal precision and knowledge of different methods of reconstruction of biliary tract continuity. The choice of the method depends on the situation in the operation area. In treatment centers experienced in iatrogenic biliary injuries, early complications occur in 16% of surgical patients. Mortality does not exceed 2% of surgical patients.
