Case description

Questions connected with choledochoduodenostomy, particular as regards indications, are discussed on the basis of a personal series and of a critical examination of concepts reported in the literature. The operation should certainly be considered in non-neoplastic bile duct pathology, although there are some fairly rigorous limitations. The disadvantages of the method are minimised to some extent and the surgeon is urged, in certain cases, to enhance the positive aspects so as not to lose opportunities which might otherwise not have been grasped.
