Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Twelve patients (11 girls and 1 boy) with dilated bile ducts and anomalous junction between the common bile duct and pancreatic duct are reported. All patients underwent preoperative opacification of the bile ducts either by transhepatic cholangiography or percutaneous cholecystography. Abdominal pain and jaundice were the main clinical symptoms. Reflux of pancreatic enzymes in the bile duct was proven by measuring amylase and lipase activity in the biliary system after IV injection of 1 IU/kg of cholecystokinin. All patients were operated upon. Bile ducts size returned to normal in all patients who are clinical well with a follow-up from 1 to 6 years.
