Endoscopic biliary drainage was performed revealing a distal common
bile duct stricture A contrast enhanced CT confirmed a resectable pancreatic head mass.
Heat injury is usually caused by the anatomical or electrocoagulation hemostasis with an electric knife in the trigonometric area of the gallbladder, leading to thermal injury and inflammation of the bile duct wall caused by electrothermal conduction, resulting in
bile duct stricture. Ischemic injury results from excessive surgical dissection of tissue around the bile duct, leading to injury of the vascular plexus around the bile duct, resulting in biliary stricture.
classification whereby lacerations under 25% of CBD diameter or cystic-CBD junction was classified as minor injury, where as transaction or laceration over 25% of CBD diameter and postoperative
bile duct stricture were classified as major injury.3 This was assessed by MRCP (magnetic resonance cholangio-pancreatography) and ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-pancreatography).

Endoscopic retrograde of cholangiopancreatography revealed distal common
bile duct stricture of 3 cm without obstruction, for which a biliary stent was placed.

bile duct stricture. Br J Surg 1980; 67(5):329-32.
Long-term follow-up is required, because the overall recurrence rate for intrahepatic stones and/or cholangitis is high (63.2%) especially in patients with
bile duct stricture. Also, complete clearance of intrahepatic stones is crucial as the incidence of cholangiocarcinoma is significantly higher in those with residual stones [5].

The patient subsequently underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) showing a distal common
bile duct stricture. A sphincterotomy was completed followed by placement of a 7 cm 10 French plastic biliary stent.
Iatrogenic causes of
bile duct stricture include stenosis occurring after surgical removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) and T-tube placement.
The management of benign
bile duct stricture is always a challenge to the clinicians.
Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiogram depicting common
bile duct stricture was shown.
