[Endoscopic diagnosis and therapy of papillary tumors]
Abstract:
Endoscopic papillotomy (EPT) allows biopsy of tumors of the Vater's papilla using coils or forceps. EPT is a preoperative diagnostic procedure in patients with carcinoma of the papilla, who can be operated upon, a palliative procedure in patients which cannot be operated upon anymore, and a curative procedure in patients with benign tumors which cannot be operated upon because of general risk factors. EPT is also a preparatory procedure for internal drainage of the bile duct system by endoscopy.
