Abstract:
A modified technique of sphincteroplasty with the use of a specially prepared cannula can exclude the pancreatic duct from the operative field by covering it with the posterior wall of the cannula. The use of the cannula can avoid some of the technical difficulties that may be encountered with operations involving the papilla of Vater. Our experience with 51 patients has been presented.
