  • Title: Operative cholangiography.
    Author: Low SC, Ng FC, Yap YL, Chng HC.
    Journal: Singapore Med J; 1992 Jun; 33(3):252-4. PubMed ID: 1631582.
    Abstract:
    Retrospective analysis of 174 operative cholangiograms done over a 3-year period confirms its substantial benefit when used selectively in patients with clinical criteria for common bile duct exploration. A low incidental ductal stone rate of 1.6%, together with a 3.3% false positive cholangiogram rate and a case of bile duct injury resulting from the procedure makes its routine application appear superfluous.
