Is ERCP a reasonable diagnostic method for excluding pancreatic and hepatobiliary disease in patients with a Billroth II resection?

ERCP was performed in 57 patients who had undergone Billroth II resection. Cannulation of the papilla of Vater was successfully accomplished in 31 cases (55%). The success rate of ERCP was clearly dependent on the type of Billroth II resection presenting.
