Brief Summary  
Choledochal cyst is the commonest congenital biliary anomaly leading to cystic dilatation of various ducts of biliary tree. Since its recognition, various surgical procedures have been proposed for management of choledochal
cysts. Hepatico-duodenostomy was initially described and commonly performed procedure. It had advantages like more physiological drainage and easier reconstruction. However, long term studies after
hepatico-duodenostomy showed high incidence of duodeno-gastric reflux and biliary gastritis.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
Evalaution of biliary gastritis in children with choledochalcyst undergoing hepaticojejunostomy vs. hepaticoduodonostomy by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and histopathological examination of the antral biopsy

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
i) Evaluation of symptoms of gastritis
ii) Evaluation of duodenogastric reflux using HIDA scan
iii) To compare episodes of cholangitis following HD and HJ
iv) Duration of surgery and postoperative stay and time to full feeds
v) To compare the postoperative outcomes following HD and HJ in terms of postoperative complications like stricture, intestinal obstruction, leak.
