“…First and foremost, he was an ambassador for medical science and a highly effective communicator in both his native Japanese language and in English. His role as a facilitator and selfless consultant is readily apparent in this article 42 and his historical review 3 of the Chiba needle approach. Legions of medical scientists visited his unit in Chiba and, in turn, he was a frequent guest all over the world.…”

“…Dr. Okuda's command of English, about which he taught, published books and even committed to gramophone record, was key in exporting the Chiba needle technique to the rest of the world. In his landmark article, 42 Okuda reported the results of "skinny needle cholangiography" on 314 patients gathered from his own experience and from colleagues and former trainees. Among patients with surgical hepatobiliary conditions, the success of the procedure for malignancies, gallstone disease and bile duct abnormalities was 100, 83, and 83%, respectively, of whom 25 patients or 8% had complications, such as fever, hypotension, bile leak, biliary peritonitis, bleeding or coughing.…”

SUMMARY Our experience with laparoscopy in the diagnosis and staging of 23 cases of pancreatic cancer is reported. This endoscopic procedure has proved useful in the diagnosis of the disease, in the assessment of operability, and in the retrieval of material for histological and cytological confirmation of pancreatic cancer. An infra-gastric laparoscopic method for inspection of the body and tail of the pancreas is described and the technique may allow the earlier detection of neoplasms in this region.

“…First, direct cholangiography by the percutaneous transhepatic approach became popular after the introduction of the thin Chiba needle [1][2][3] in the early 1970s, and then came endo scopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) along with the advent of flexible fiberoptics [4][5][6][7], Although these procedures for direct cholangiography enable injection of contrast medium directly into the biliary tract, and the latter into the pancreatic duct, they are invasive and not entirely without hazard. Ultrasonography (US) and X-ray computed tomography (CT) followed direct cholangiography.…”
