title: Overfilling of a pancreatic segment in endoscopic retrograde pancreaticography.
abstract: A case of parenchymal opacification of a segment of the pancreatic head without severe clinical sequelae is described. The authors discuss the pitfalls of the technique of duct filling and wedging of the cannula in a segment of the pancreatic duct. They call attention to the risks of such complications in patients with intolerance to i.v. administration of contrast medium.
