  Introduction: It is reported that choledochocholedochostomy without T-tube presents fewer complications than biliary reconstruction using T-tube in liver transplantation. But there is no large homogeneous series which report late and early biliary complications after choledochocholedochostomy without T-tube in whole size liver transplantation in adults. The aim of our study was to report early and late biliary complications after choledochocholedochostomy without T-tube in whole-size liver transplantation in adults. Materials and methods: Four hundred twenty six adult patients went whole-size liver transplantation with a biliary reconstruction performed by choledochocholedochostomy without T-tube. Forty six patients presented biliary complications. Incidence and treatment of early and late complications are studied. Results:.. View More»
