Abstract

On the basis of a thourough anatomosurgical study of Vater's ampulla and after a critical survey of all surgical techniques for the sphincter of Oddi, the indications for and technique of total papillosphincteroplasty are presented. The results obtained in 544 total papillosphincteroplasties, their possible complications and failure supported by long-term (from 6 months to 7 years) follow-up are discussed. The conclusion is drawn that papillosphincteroplasty is to be considered the surgical technique of choice in the treatment of benign pathology of the main bile way.
