    Abstract:
    In the period 1977 to 1982, 145 endoscopic papillotomies have been attempted at the University Hospital, Basel. The procedure was successful in 112 patients or 77%. Endoscopic papillotomy was performed for the following two main indications: choledocholithiasis (118 patients; 81%), suspicion of papillary stenosis (22 patients; 15%). Complications occurred in 8 patients (5.5%) with subsequent surgery in only one case and no death. The data are compared with those in the literature.
