Bile duct surgery, also known as cholecystoduodenostomy or choledochotomy, is a procedure to repair or remove damaged bile ducts. This can be done to treat conditions such as gallstones, tumors, or strictures. The surgery involves making an incision in the duct and removing any blockages or damaged sections, then reattaching the healthy ends using stitches or a stent. The goal is to restore normal bile flow from the liver to the small intestine.
