Gall stones with several bile duct stones and a moderately well-dilated
common bile duct are an indication for this surgery. Sometimes bile duct will
be packed with stones and in these patients, there is a possibility of recurrence
of bile duct stones even after removing the stones from bile duct and removal
of gallbladder. In this procedure, abdomen is opened through Right sub-costal
incision, Gall bladder will be removed followed by opening of bile duct and all
the stones will be cleared. Then, the bile duct is joined with first part of
duodenum to create an alternate passage which prevent the recurrent stone
formation in the bile duct.
