  • Title: Long-term follow-up after endoscopic sphincterotomy.
    Author: Rösch W, Riemann JF, Lux G, Lindner HG.
    Journal: Endoscopy; 1981 Jul; 13(4):152-3. PubMed ID: 7250082.
    Abstract:
    Endoscopic sphincterotomy has become a well-accepted procedure in choledocholithiasis and papillary stenosis. Long-term follow-up data covering an observation period of 7 years disclose that about 90% of the patients are either completely relieved of symptoms, or show marked improvement. Re-stenosis or recurrent concrements seem are events; in primary papillary stenosis, however, long-term results are less favorable.
