Hi @journey2025, are you referring to Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy (RYHJ), a surgical procedure that creates a new route for bile to flow from the liver to the small intestine?

Has your husband been diagnosed with bile duct cancer? How is he doing? How are YOU doing?

Dear @journey2025

In October 2024, I had a radical bile duct resection that included a Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy and other surgical procedures at Mayo Rochester for my cholangiocarcinoma. My family and I could not be more pleased with the surgery, recovery, and outcome.

Hi Colleen,
Yes, that is the surgery. What is the usual recovery time and more common complications.
