title: [Experience with endoscopic papillotomy (author's transl)].
abstract: The results of 64 endoscopic papillotomies (EPT) are reported. When precautions are taken the EPT is a highly effective procedure of low risk. The minimal stress for the patient, the high accuracy and the low number of complications guarantee this method a prominent place in the treatment of bile duct illnesses. Control examinations of 30 patients to 12 months after operation proved all patients symptom-free and neither biochemical nor clinical evidence of cholangitis or other complications.
