Hepaticoenterostomy

/hɛˌpætɪkoʊˌɛntɛroʊˈstɒstəmi/ noun

Definition

A surgical procedure that connects the liver ducts directly to the small intestine (any part) to restore bile flow when the normal route is blocked.

Etymology

From hepatic- (liver) + entero- (small intestine, from Greek enteron) + -stomy (surgical opening). This broader term encompasses various specific ducts-to-intestine connections and emerged as surgeons refined their techniques for managing complex biliary problems.

Kelly Says

Unlike the specific hepaticoduodenostomy that targets only the duodenum, this term is like using an umbrella category—it includes connecting the liver ducts to the jejunum, ileum, or any part of the intestines, giving surgeons flexibility in choosing the best surgical route.
