Abstract
A new method is presented of treating extensive obstruction of the extrahepatic biliary
system, the treatment of which has hitherto been unsatisfactory, by anastomosing one

the left lobe of the liver. It should be emphasized that although our experience with
the procedure has been encouraging, it has been limited both clinically and experimentally
and the final evaluation must await further clinical observations.
