37 patients with bilio-digestive anastomosis--18 choledocho- and 19 hepatico-jejunostomies Roux-en-Y--had been followed up for 6--62 months. Hepato-biliary sequential scintigraphy showed in 26 patients both unimpeded bile passage and normal function of the jejunal loop. 6 patients had stenosis in the common bile duct or the anastomotic region with cholangitis and cholostasis. In 5 patients we observed an impaired function of the jejunal loop. Though all of these patients had clinical symptoms only one patient developed cholostasis.
