[Functional radiographic anatomy of the terminal sphincter duct of the biliary pancreatic system].
The improvement of techniques of surgical operations on the bile ducts, especially on their terminal portion, as well as on the pancreas generates a need in deeper knowledge of the function of terminal sphincters of ducts--the general bile and main pancreatic ducts, and Oddi's sphincter that regulate the ingress of bile and pancreatic juice in the digestive tract lumen. This knowledge will make it possible to determine the most adequate variant of treatment, which is closest to the physiological one, in each particular case.
