Abstract

From experience derived from a series of 322 gall bladder removals, in 35,6% of which exploration of the common bile duct was performed, and 10% of which were drained either by choledochoduodenostomy (19 cases) or sphincteroplasty (13 cases), a plea is made that operative cholangiography is essential; that the indications for drainage must be correct and that the correct procedure must be used. The two operations of sphincteroplasty and choledochoduodenostomy are described.
