Popis: A case of traumatic pancreatitis with a radiopaque calculus producing pain by obstructing the distal pancreatic duct is presented. Preoperative ductal anatomy was defined by a percutaneous pancreatogram that established the presence of mechanical duct obstruction as the cause of pain, and the potential for operative relief of duct obstruction. A remission from pain resulted from pancreatic duct decompression by a lateral pancreaticojejunostomy. The potential value of percutaneous pancreatography is discussed.
