BACKGROUND: There are only a few reports regarding the quality of life of patients who underwent a complicated cholecystectomy with an iatrogenic bile duct injury (IBDI); the results have been heterogeneous and realized with unspecific measures. METHODS: The objective was to determine whether the quality of life of the subjects with a history of IBDI repaired with bilioenteric derivation is modified in the long term with respect to a control group, for which a group of patients with a history of IBDI (group A) was compared with a group of patients with a history of uncomplicated cholecystectomy (group B). Two different measures were used: on the one hand, the SF-12 questionnaire and on the other hand, a questionnaire was implemented where the patient could determine by himself which variables define his quality of life. RESULTS: A total of 46 patients were included in group A and 51 in group B. The analysis of the SF-12 questionnaire showed a statistical significant reduction in 4 of 8 of the evaluated parameters (general health, physical functioning, physical role and social functioning) in group A in comparison with group B. If a more specific questionnaire is used, the results are similar, with a statistically significant reduction in the quality of life within the group A (0.03). CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that the quality of life of patients with a history of bilioenteric derivation due to an IBDI decreases significantly compared to patients with uncomplicated cholecystectomy.
