[Roentgenologic and endoscopic findings after papillotomy]

During 1977--1980 36 papillotomies were performed; indications for the latter were: papillary stenosis, incarcerated stones or stones which could not be removed which certainty and suspicion of a papillocarcinoma. The indications were evaluated as to whether endoscopic or surgical papillotomy should be performed. The results of the papilloplasties were considered satisfactory. In 40% of the cases a duodenobiliary reflux was observed, which however did not give troubles.
