| Popis: | Thirty-five cases of biliary atresia that demonstrated the creation of internal fistula between intrahepatic bile ducts at the portahepatis and intestine and showed long-term bile flow after our hepatic portoenterostomy were investigated from various aspects. These 35 cases were divided into Group A cases, in which jaundice disappeared within three months after surgery, and Group B cases, in which persistent jaundice was seen more than three months after surgery. (1) Severe liver fibrosis and degeneration of intrahepatic bile ducts were more often seen in Group B cases than in Group A cases. (2) The age at the time of surgery and the size of intrahepatic bile ducts at the portahepatis did not have much influence on the operative results in those 35 cases. (3) Measurement of the amount of bile flow and bile acid excretion obtained from Suruga II enterostomy is useful for evaluating the postoperative results of biliary atresia patients. (4) Reoperation that includes curettage and rehepatic portoenterostomy, and serious postoperative ascending cholangitis were each closely related to postoperative persistent jaundice. |
