title: [Emergency surgery in icterus].
abstract: Obstructive jaundice may be, still today, a surgical emergency. After the analysis of the serious syndrome following a persistent cholestasis, the authors discuss new technological diagnostic procedures and indications, pros and cons of the use of P.T.D. (Percutaneous Transhepatic Drainage). Finally, they underline emergency cases and proper surgical management, on the basis of their personal experience, as well.
