Abstract:
:Examples of the use of endoscopic pancreatography in the preoperative evaluation and postoperative follow-up study of patients with pancreatic disease are presented and discussed. Six cases selected from a total experience of forty-eight patients have been summarized. The direct role of pancreatography in the management of these cases is cited. There is a small but definite risk to the procedure. With increased use of endoscopic pancreatography, it is hoped that earlier diagnoses of a variety of pancreatic diseases will be obtained which will permit more accurate medical and surgical therapy.
