In recent years, newer techniques have become available to the clinician for the diagnosis and treatment of biliary and pancreatic disease. This article emphasizes interventional procedures through the liver, such as percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography, percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, and ancillary techniques. Also discussed are the nonsurgical management of bile duct calculi and the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic tumors, abscesses, and pseudocysts.
