  • Title: [Comparative study on the diagnostic value of direct and indirect cholangiography].
    Author: Schentke KU, Köhler K, Platzbecker H.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1979 Sep 01; 34(17):233-4. PubMed ID: 539013.
    Abstract:
    The examinations contain the findings of the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography in 600 patients, the date of a controlled comparative study intravenous cholangiotomography versus endoscopic retrograde cholangiography in 45 patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography and the results of the percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography in 54 patients. In anicteric patients and after subsidence of the clinical symptoms the optimum use of the intravenous cholegraphy with tomography is to be demanded. It is able multiply to clarify the diagnosis. The terminal part of the choledochus deserves particular consideration. In obstructive jaundice the percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography is essentially more successful and simpler than the endoscopic retrograde cholangiography.
