[Value and limitations of intravenous cholangiography in the diagnosis of the main bile duct diseases. Studies in 209 cases controlled surgically].
The value and limits of i.v. cholangiography were appraised in the light of the surgical picture in 209 patients. Exact preoperative diagnosis was possible in many cases, while no more than dilatation of the main bile duct was demonstrable in others. False negatives mainly concerned lithiasis of the common duct without jaundice, whereas false positive lithiasis was primarily observed in papilitis and cephalopancreatitis.
