Value of temporary stents for the management of perivaterian perforation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography

摘要

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)has become the mainstay of treatment in hepato-pancreato-biliary disease.However,ERCP requires a high level of technical skills and experience in therapeutic endoscopy,there is always a risk of complications.Especially,the perforation per se affects the patient adversely,and the clinical course may lead to a poor prognosis,even with appropriate management.The treatments for ERCPrelated perforation are diverse,depending on the location and mechanism of the bowel perforation and the time of diagnosis.Thus,we reviewed the appropriate surgical and non-surgical management options for therapeutic ERCP-related perforations,especially,evaluating metallic stenting as a treatment modality in perivaterian perforation.
