Abstract

 

In the absence of symptoms of the primary disease, most patients with bile duct strictures (biliary strictures) remain asymptomatic until the lumen of the bile duct is sufficiently narrowed to cause resistance to the flow of bile. Occasionally, patients may have intermittent episodes of right upper quadrant pain (biliary colic), with or without laboratory features of biliary obstruction. Patients most often present with features of obstructive jaundice. On occasion, a patient may present dramatically with sepsis and hypotension due to ascending cholangitis. We report a case of benign CBD stricture in an operated case of gastro-jejunostomy who was operated with cholecystectomy and choledoco-jejunostomy and she recovered fully.
