| Stone stuck in the papilla 1 |
 |
After a severe colic
attack ERCP shows a
stone stuck in the papilla. Compression
of the peripapillary tissue results in a
beginning necrosis. Impossible intubation
necessitates a precut alongside the stone.
After EPT the stone is spontaneously released to the duodenum.
