ABSTRACT

Important progress in the last few years in fiberscopic instrumentation for digestive endoscopy has made possible duodenoscopy with catheterization of the papilla to obtain retrograde biliopancreatic contrast x-rays. Up to now the only possible way to explore biliary ducts, in icterus, was surgically. This new method makes their study possible without any surgical intervention and with a simple neuroleptanalgesia. It is most advantageous in icterus where clinical tests, laboratory tests and other complementary examinations such as laparoscopy do not help to determine the cause. This examination is not devoid of dangers, particularly of the risk of cholangitis and pancreatitis and therefore certain technical precautions are necessary, e.g., immediate surgical intervention in case of organ obstruction and well defined indications.
