E Strunk, and G Kautz, and N van Husen

In 717 endoscopic papillotomies there were 52 complications in 48 patients, requiring 15 emergency operations with 11 deaths. Surgical intervention was undertaken in six patients for cholangitis after obstruction by stone, in four for retroperitoneal perforation, in two each for bleeding or jamming of the dormia basket, and in one for pancreatitis. Cause of death was very poor general condition or age over 80 years in four; retroduodenal abscess in four; haemorrhagic pancreatitis in two, and cholangiogenic sepsis in one.
