[Reconstruction of the bile ducts in the rat using choledocho-choledochostomy over a lost drain. Studies on an autologous model and orthotopic liver transplantation].

Four different techniques for reconstruction of the bile drainage have been employed in an autologous model. Biochemical liver parameters e. g. Bilirubin, AP, GPT and GOT, cholangiography and histology proved the superiority of our method of an intraductal tubus technique (lost drain method). The covering of the bile duct with the mobilised greater omentum seems to be important for a rapid revascularisation. The superiority of our method was proven in orthotopic liver isografting as well.
