Laparoscopic cholangiography in the diagnosis of cholestasis: experience with 103 cases.

The results of 103 laparoscopic cholangiographies performed in patients with cholestasis are reported and the technique used is described. Minimal or no secondary effects were noted. A correct diagnosis was reached in 92 cases, 53 of which presented cholestasis of an extrahepatic nature and 39 of intrahepatic origin. In the latter group, the technique made exploratory laparotomy unnecessary. The procedure allows a roentgenologic examination of the biliary system, a direct evaluation of the liver and gallbladder and, if necessary, a liver biopsy.

[Value and limitations of intravenous cholangiography in the diagnosis of the main bile duct diseases. Studies in 209 cases controlled surgically].

The value and limits of i.v. cholangiography were appraised in the light of the surgical picture in 209 patients. Exact preoperative diagnosis was possible in many cases, while no more than dilatation of the main bile duct was demonstrable in others. False negatives mainly concerned lithiasis of the common duct without jaundice, whereas false positive lithiasis was primarily observed in papilitis and cephalopancreatitis.

[Hepatic scintigraphy and laparoscopy in the diagnosis of the metastatic liver neoplasms. Comparative studies in 112 cases].

Personal experience of hepatic scintigraphy and laparoscopy in the diagnosis of secondary tumors of the liver is reported. The usefulness of both the techniques, associated, is proved by the small number of cases (2,98%) where metastases remained undiagnosed before surgery. Considering only the results of scanning, a larger number of "false positive" is noted, while those of laparoscopy are more often "false negative".
