Popis: An endoscopic manometric technique was used to determine the CBD-duodenum junction pressure profile before and immediately after endoscopic sphincterotomy in 13 patients with common bile duct stones. Premedication (meperidine, atropine, and diazepam) was given to all patients and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography was performed before endoscopic sphincterotomy. In the patients with intact papilla the features of the sphincter of Oddi motility were similar to those previously described for patients not given premedication or submitted to cholangiography before endoscopic sphincterotomy. Endoscopic sphincterotomy which was successful for immediate stone removal in 9 of 13 patients caused an immediate reduction of sphincter of Oddi motility in all patients, but abolished it in only 2 of them. The present results show that successful common bile duct stone extraction by means of endoscopic sphincterotomy can be accomplished without total abolition of sphincter of Oddi motility.
