Various techniques are used for the anatomo-functional study of bilio-digestive anastomoses on jejunal loop autonomized according to Roux. Here a transparietojejunal endoscopic investigation is proposed that permits direct sight of the anastomosis, biliary sampling for cultural examination and dilatative type therapeutic manoeuvres, biopsies or extractions of residual stones from the bile ways that would not otherwise be possible without further surgery. A clinical case is reported.
