PBD does not help to reduce postoperative complications.

Causes of PEP are not completely established but there are several risk factors. The aim of this study was to investigate correlation between various diagnoses and occurrence of PEP. Methods: All patients with indication
for ERCP at our tertiary care center from January to December 2012 were included. All patients received diclophenac sodium suppositories immediately before procedure. We used Spearman correlation coefficient in order to detect possible significant Lenvatinib cost correlation. Results: We included total number of 169 patients, 94 males (55%) and 75 females (45%), mean age was 70.58 ± 13.77 years.
We observed PEP in 24 out of 169 patients (14%), 13 males (54.2%) and 11 females (45.8%). Mean duration of procedure was 45 ± 26.00 min. Among others, the most common reasons for ERCP were choledocholithiasis (57.6%) and pancreatic carcinoma (12.9%). We found significant correlation of PEP only with extrahepatic ducts neoplasms, r = 0.185, p < 0.05. There was no correlation among PEP and gender, pancreatic carcinoma, choledocholithiasis, acute or chronic pancreatitis. Conclusion: Extrahepatic ducts malignancies are correlated with higher incidence of possibly due to difficult cannulation and prolonged procedure. Key Word(s): 1. ERCP; 2.

ZLATKO GILJACA, KATARINA KARLOVIC, DAVOR STIMAC Corresponding Author: GORAN HAUSER Affiliations: Head of department; resident; MCE公司 Specialist; Head nurse Objective: Acute pancreatitis is the most common major complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Its incidence has substantial variations ranging from 5, 1% to more than 25% of all ERCP procedures. In some cases pancreatitis is followed by severe course with pancreatic necrosis and multiorgan failure. Risk factors for post ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) are not well established. We aimed to correlate influence of cholestatic parameters, eg total bilirubin, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (AP) and liver transaminases (AST and ALT) on development of PEP. Methods: During 2012 at the setting of tertiary care center, we conducted prospective study that included in-patients scheduled for ERCP. We recorded maximal values of above mentioned laboratory values before procedure and calculated correlation using t-test for independent samples. All patients received diclophenac sodium suppositories immediately before ERCP.
