    Excision of choledochal cysts during the initial surgery offers favorable outcomes. Reoperations for choledochal cyst excision, particularly hepaticojejunostomy, are effective for recurrent symptoms.

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatobiliary surgery
    • Pediatric surgery
    • Surgical outcomes

    Context:

    • Choledochal cysts are congenital dilations of the biliary tree.
    • Surgical management aims for complete cyst excision and biliary reconstruction.
    • Reoperations are sometimes necessary for residual or recurrent symptoms.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of choledochal cyst excision and reconstruction.
    • To compare primary operations with reoperations for choledochal cysts.
    • To determine the optimal surgical approach for choledochal cysts, including specific techniques for associated anomalies.

    Summary:

    • Fifty-one operations for choledochal cyst were performed on 46 patients, including 41 primary operations and 10 reoperations.
    • Excision with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy yielded favorable results in reoperation patients with recurrent symptoms.

  • Hepatic portojejunostomy is recommended for choledochal cysts with distal atresia and hypoplastic hepatic ducts.

    • Impact:

    • Suggests that complete excision of choledochal cysts should be prioritized during the first operation.
    • Highlights the efficacy of hepaticojejunostomy in managing recurrent symptoms post-choledochal cyst surgery.
    • Provides guidance on surgical techniques for complex choledochal cyst presentations.
