[Transduodenal papillosphincterotomy in the treatment of nontumorous lesions of the terminal portion of the common bile duct].

For benign stricture, obstruction of the major duodenal papilla (MDP) and terminal common bile duct in 130 patients with acute and chronic cholecystitis and its complications, the papillosphincterotomy was performed. Postoperative lethality was 3.8%. A good long-term result was noted in 84% of the patients, satisfactory--in 12%, bad--in 4%. There were no restenosis of MDP and recurrent choledocholithiasis.
