Abstract

We report a case of post-surgical temporary functional stenosis of the sphincter of Oddi and biliary leak in a patient with a previous Billroth II reconstruction who had undergone cholecystectomy, surgical choledochotomy and sphincterotomy for biliary calculi. The patient was treated by creation of an internal/external biliary drainage using the T-tube access with an unreported technique.
