Isolated intrahepatic lithiasis, a rare condition, was treated with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. This surgical approach enabled periodic cleaning of bile ducts, leading to complete stone elimination.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Isolated intrahepatic lithiasis is exceptionally rare in Western populations.
  • The exact pathogenesis of intrahepatic stones remains unclear, with bile alterations being a leading hypothesis.

Observation:

  • A rare case of isolated intrahepatic lithiasis presented.
  • The patient underwent a Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy with a cutaneous stoma.

Findings:

  • The surgical intervention facilitated periodic cleaning of the intrahepatic bile ducts.
  • Complete elimination of all intrahepatic stones was achieved through this method.

Implications:

  • This case adds to the limited literature on intrahepatic lithiasis.
  • The described surgical technique offers a viable management strategy for this rare condition.
