[Prospects of intraoperative dynamic cholangio-manometry by tensor detectors with graphic recording of pressure function].

Intraoperative cholangio-manometry with a miniature tensor sensor and graphic recording of the results were conducted to study the function of the major duodenal papilla in 53 patients. A periodical activity of the ampulla of the papilla was revealed, which was characterized by certain values of the peak and basal pressure, and duration of contraction and relaxation periods. The numerical values and the pattern of the pressure curve differed in patients with obstructive cholecystitis, biliary pancreatitis, and a concrement incarcerated in the ampulla of the papilla. The informativeness of the study increases with the use of the glucagon test.
