title: [Transparieto-hepatic cholangiography with Chiba needle].
abstract: 253 percutaneous transhepatic cholangiographies with Chiba needle were performed. In 83% of the cases the biliary tract could be visualized. In the patients with extrahepatic cholestasis 92% success was achieved, while only 48% success in the cases with intra-hepatic cholestasis. Complications were developed in 3,87% of cases (choleperitoneum 4, cholangitis 2, hemorrhage 2, paralytic ileum 1, hemobilia 2). There was no mortality. Patients with dilated biliary tract should be operated upon in no more than 24 hours following the procedure.
