The management of biliary disorders in patients with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy
anastomosis is challenging and remains controversial. Our aim is to share our experiences
of endoscopic treatment via a permanent access loop in 5 patients. Endoscopic treatment
via a permanent access loop is an invaluable procedure for the management of stenotic
hepaticojejunostomy anastomosis, anastomotic leakage, and hepatolithiasis. It may
even be life-saving for some patients.
