Lasers in Surgery and Medicine
R Sander, H Poesl

Abstract

With the presentation of two cases of successfully performed endoscopic papillotomies, a new indication for Nd YAG laser treatment in gastroenterology is introduced. To the extent it thus far has been used, photocoagulation is a complementary alternative method if the usual papillotomy cannot be placed in the right cutting position.
