| pubmed-article:6475062 | pubmed:abstractText | Concrements in the prepapillary portion of the Wirsungian duct result in secretion with simultaneous obstruction and, thus, represent a potential cause of pancreatitis. The removal of these concrements is indicated and rendered possible by endoscopic incision of the pancreatic duct. This procedure has been performed only very rarely up to the present. Its efficacy is demonstrated by a case report. | lld:pubmed |
