title: [Transduodenal sphincteroplasty].
abstract: Transduodenal sphincteroplasty is a surgical procedure indicated for treatment and prophylaxis of biliary tract stones and Oddi's sphincter fibrosis. This report analyzes the experience in Mexico City at Instituto Nacional de la Nutrición "Salvador Zubirán", in the last 35 years. We report the indications, morbidity and mortality rates, risk factors which have influence in the final outcome, as well as the long term effectivity. We used the chi-square analysis for measuring this correlation. Sphincteroplasty was effective for long term biliary permeability in 93%. Mortality rate was 4.3% and we had complications in 25.9%. In 150 biopsies, we found histological abnormalities in 90%. Presence of cholangitis was a risk factor for mortality, and serum albumin less than 3 g/dl for developing biliar or duodenal fistulas (p less than 0.02). Patients with chronic pancreatic disease in which sphincteroplasty was performed had poor outcome, compared with patients who had only biliary tract stones or Oddi's sphincter fibrosis. We concluded that transduodenal sphincteroplasty is an effective surgical procedure which supplies long term biliary tract permeability with a real present therapeutic value.
