Resumo

Inadvertent injury to the biliary tree at surgery and sclerosing cholangitis present particular difficulties to the clinician. Therapeutic ERCP is effective in the management of the immediate and late complications of the bile duct injury. The role of endoscopy in primary sclerosing cholangitis remains to be defined. Endoscopic biliary drainage protocols have yielded favorable results.
