title: [Percutaneous cholangiography with the Chiba method (author's transl)].
abstract: In 92 patients with cholestasis a percutaneous cholangiography was performed. The bile duct could be visualized in 75 cases (81.5 percent). When the bile ducts were dilatated, the investigation succeeded in 94 percent, whereas in patients with normal bile ducts the rate was 65 percent. Complications occurred only in 2 cases. In one patient surgery was necessary due to biliary  peritonitis. In another patient a discrete hemobilia without clinical symptoms could be found during laparotomy.
