Abstract

A survey is carried out of the immediate and long-term results of papillotoby, a comparison being made with two series of 71 and 28 cases, respeétively. It is shown that papillotomy increases the rate of complications and fatal out comes in conjunction with hile duct surgery. Duodenal fistula and acute pancreatitis are the most frequent and serious complications, usually resulting from on erroneous operative approach. Long-term results are excellent, the cause of failures being imputable to undue indications for papillotomy.
