The remote results obtained in the treatment of the benign diseases of the main biliary duct were appraised on a specimen of 47 people operated on at the Surgical Department of the Turin University between 1960 and 1970, subjected to a checking visit at a distance from operation ranging from 12 up to 22 years. The investigation confirmed the impression that in biliary surgery some eventual failures can reach the clinical evidence after many years from operation, and allowed to demonstrate percentages of satisfactory, unsatisfactory and bad results as high as 80,8%, 8,5% and 10,6%, respectively.
