摘要
Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy anastomosis is the treatment of choice for common hepatic duct injury type E2.It has been performed laparoscopically with the advancement of laparoscopic skill.Recently,a telemanipulative robotic surgical system was introduced,providing laparoscopic instruments with wrist-arm technology and 3-dimensional visualization of theoperative field.We present a case of 36-year-old female patient who had undergone elective cholecystectomy2 mo ago for gall stones and had a common bile duct injury during surgery.As the stricture was old and complete it could not be tackled endoscopically.We did a laparoscopic assisted adhesiolysis followed by robotic Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy.No intraoperative complications or technical problems were encountered.Postoperative period was uneventful and she was discharged on the 4th postoperative day.At followup,she is doing well without evidence of jaundice or cholangitis.This is the first reported case of robotic hepaticojejunostomy following common bile duct injury.The hybrid technique gives the patient benefit of laparoscopic adhesiolysis and robotic suturing.
