Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical features of and appropriate surgical modality for congenital choledochal cyst(CCC). Methods Retrospective study on the clinical data of 85 surgically treated CCC cases was made. Results Among the 85 cases 12 were found malignant in character(14%). Out of the 29 cases in which the junction of pancreaticobiliary ductal system was showed by image, junction anomaly was identified in 26 cases. Surgical correction was applied to 83 cases with cyst excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy as the main procedure. External drainage of the CCC was adopted first in 4 cases to tide the patients over serious infection, before second stage definite radical resection was carried out. Excellent and good result were achieved on follow-up in 47 out of 60 CCC cases undergoing CCC resection and Roux-en-Y reconstruction, while only one out of 6 undergoing CCC internal drainage enjoyed fair result. Conclusions External drainage is mandatory for CCC patients with severe infection. The total choledochal cyst excision, with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunstomy is effective in the treatment of CCC.
