Core Tip	It is not unusual to encounter patients with post-operative bile duct injuries (BDIs) in the setting of a specialized biliary clinic at tertiary hospitals. With regard to the patients’ best interests, it is important to determine the suitability of non-invasive treatment. We analyzed the clinical outcomes and various prognostic factors that affected the success rates of non-surgical treatments. The BDI type was the single most powerful factor that determined the success rate of non-surgical treatment. In addition, we emphasize that this series of 77 patients with post-operative BDI was one of the largest series of this type to be examined.
