Cholangitis occurring after biliary-enteric anastomosis is a well-recognized but insufficiently analyzed surgical complication. Guidelines for assessment have not been established and management remains controversial. We examined a two-year experience with recurrent cholangitis following bilio-enteric anastomosis; cholangitis in the absence of anastomotic obstruction was surprisingly frequently encountered. Although selected cases without anastomotic stenosis may be amenable to nonoperative treatment, a low threshold for surgical reintervention should be maintained because radiologic assessment of anastomotic patency is often equivocal and the clinical problem is often best managed surgically.
