Abstract

Thirty-two patients with biliary or pancreatic disease were evaluated by duodenoscopy so as to establish the macroscopic characteristics of the papilla of Vater. In two cases, endoscopic pancreatography was performed as a diagnostic evaluation of the papilla, 30 patients were operated. Our results seem to indicate that the diagnosis of Odditis may be established by endoscopy.
