PERCUTANEOUS TRANSHEPATIC CHOLANGIOGRAPHY
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1967 The patient who presents with jaundice, regardless of the etiology, cannot be adequately examined by a gallbladder series and intravenous cholangiography. Clinical evaluation aided by laboratory analysis will not always differentiate between primary liver parenchymal disease and biliary tract obstruction. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography, when

Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiography [PDF]
BMJ, 1965 TTHERE ARE FEW problems more perplexing than the differential diagnosis of the jaundiced patient. Oral and intravenous cholangiography are not applicable in the presence of jaundice, and if jaundice has been present for any prolonged period, the usual chemical tests are of limited value in differentiating extrahepatic obstructive from hepatocellular ...

Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography [PDF]
The American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1960 1. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography should take its proper place in our armamentarium of diagnostic procedures. 2. If one adheres strictly to the indications and observes careful technic, the hazards are minimal and the information gained rewarding, as illustrated by a detailed report of 1 case. 3.

BMJ, 1964 Chemical and histological studies are often unable to differen tiate chronic extrahepatic obstructive jaundice (due to calculi, neoplasia, or stricture) from chronic intrahepatic obstructive jaundice (caused by primary biliary cirrhosis or by drugs, . notably anabolic steroids and phenothiazine derivatives).

Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiography
Annals of Surgery, 1962 Summary Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography has been performed by introducing contrast material through a polyethylene catheter into the liver. This catheter may be left in situ after the cholangiogram, permitting biliary drainage and so reducing the risk of biliary peritonitis.
