    Side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy is the preferred surgical procedure for distal common bile duct obstructions. Expanding its use has not increased patient risks, maintaining favorable outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology and Hepatobiliary Surgery

    Background:

    • Choledochoduodenostomy is a surgical procedure connecting the common bile duct and the duodenum.
    • Indications for this procedure have historically focused on specific distal common bile duct obstructions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy.
    • To assess the impact of expanded indications on patient outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 36 side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy cases over five years.
    • Analysis of morbidity and mortality rates associated with the procedure.

    Main Results:

    • Successfully performed 36 side-to-side choledochoduodenostomies.
    • Confirmed the procedure's effectiveness for distal common bile duct obstructions.

  • Demonstrated no increase in morbidity or mortality with extended indications.
  • Conclusions:

    • Side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy remains the procedure of choice for distal common bile duct lesions.
    • Expanded use of this surgical technique is safe and does not compromise patient outcomes.
