Should We Use Papilla Morphology to Estimate the Size of the Terminal Common Bi...
Lopes, L; Canena, J; Fernandes, J; Moreira, M; Costa, I; Gomes-Fonseca, J, et al.Objective: A small common bile duct (CBD) diameter has been associated with complications and with a difficult biliary cannulation.

Despite this published suggestion there is no study addressing this topic. This study evaluated a possible a...
