ERCP

Moreover, when performing early endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for acute cholangitis associated with choledocholithiasis, if the cholangitis is severe, it is recommended to perform biliary drainage alone [3]; however, in moderate-to-mild cases, there is insufficient evidence regarding whether or not single-session stone removal can be safely performed.

A 48-year-old female patient (weight: 66 kg, height: 166 cm) with multiple millimetric gallstones was due to undergo intraoperative ERCP followed by LC.

Patients then underwent ERCP and ultrasonography findings were compared with ERCP findings, regarding detection of carcinoma head of pancreas.

HD Duodenoscope is designed to improve the standards of treatment and safety for both routine and advanced ERCP via improved clarity, access and performance.

The Centre provides services six days a week and about eighty common endoscopic procedures and about twenty advanced endoscopy procedures like EUS, ERCP, and APC are performed every week.

Immediate examination by multiple specialists - an intensivist, a nephrologist, a cardiologist and an anesthesiologist determined that it was necessary to conduct ERCP to treat the cholangitis, else the patient's condition could prove fatal.

The ERCP was an uneventful procedure and there was no instrumentation to the pancreatic duct.

Posttransplant ERCP is also common after liver transplant.

She underwent an ERCP with sphincterotomy, placement of a straight stent, and removal of several stones.

The large channel echo endoscopes of EUS have allowed for the therapeutic application of EUS by combining real-time ultrasound and fluoroscopy imaging of ERCP to carry out an EUS-biliary drainage (EUS-BD).

The patient was admitted to the hospital where ERCP was performed; sphincterotomy and CBD stone extraction were done.

He said that a large number of local and international experts on the subject of diseases relating to liver and stomach directly imparted training of Endoscopic Ultrasound and ERCP to young and junior doctors at Lahore General Hospital during this workshop.
