Utility of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiography in Evaluating Post-Surgical Biliary Tract Complications. Case Report. Rev. Fac. Med. (Méx.) [online]. 2025, vol.68, n.1, pp.24-29.  Epub 28-Feb-2025.

Secondary cholangitis can be caused by the repair of the biliary tract due to different situations. Bilioenteric anastomosis, when losing the valvular mechanism, produces intestinal reflux towards the biliary tract conditioning a higher risk of inflammation - recurrent infection.

Cholangioresonance is the imaging method of choice to determine both the normal anatomy of the biliary tree, as well as to evaluate post-surgical changes and complications such as: biliomas, bleeding, abscesses, and to determine their location, so it is important to have the patient’s clinical data and history. There are several types of surgical techniques that require the radiologist to be familiar with them and together with the different image sequences will allow a correct interpretation of the images and thus determine the causes of the patient’s ailment.

Palabras llave : Cholangioresonance; biliary anatomy; biliodigestive anastomosis; biliary postoperative complications; cholangitis.
