Endoscopic pancreatography in cystadenoma of the pancreas.
A case of mucinous cystadenoma of the tail of the pancreas is reported in which endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography was used to define the surgical anatomy prior to operation. The demonstration of a normal proximal main duct allowed simple ligation of the body of the gland when the tail was excised.
