  • Title: [Place of endoscopic sphincterotomy in the treatment of biliary lithiasis].
    Author: Monod-Broca P.
    Journal: Ann Gastroenterol Hepatol (Paris); 1986 Oct; 22(5):283-6. PubMed ID: 3777871.
    Abstract:
    Endoscopic sphincterotomy is a benign procedure but occasional complications happen. They require a surgical team used to their specific management. On the other endoscopic sphincterotomy may control surgical insufficiency: retained stones. Main duct stones need a surgical approach, but endoscopy may be a substitute in many cases; this technic is more benign and efficient in most cases.
