Comprehensive examinations of 62 patients with jaundice of obscure origins involved transcutaneous transhepatic cholangiography carried out in all the patients, hepatolymphography in 60 cases, relaxation duodenography in 31, angiography in 41, ultrasonic examination of the liver in 31, endoscopic retrograde pancreatocholangiography in 28 and liver scanning in 19 patients. These studies have extended the knowledge on the biliferous system status in obturation and parenchymatous jaundices and helped define the role of transcutaneous transhepatic cholangiography among the invasive methods of radiologic examinations and pararadiologic methods.
