Abstract

An isolated intrahepatic or sectorial bile duct stricture or injury is uncommon. When it occurs, it can be a vexing problem. Following hepatic trauma or operation, an intrahepatic or isolated sectorial duct may be injured directly or from ischemia. Strictures in sectorial and segmental bile ducts also can occur from inflammatory conditions. A structured approach to diagnosis and treatment is required to insure optimal treatment outcomes in this patient population. In general, treatment is to restore bilioenteric continuity or to remove the affected hepatic segment/sector.
