ERCP has been a significant advance in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic and biliary diseases. However, anatomic variations may prevent successful ERCP.
Advancement of a duodenoscope during ERCP was impeded in 4 patients by anatomic alterations of the esophagus and/or the stomach. The overtube, 80 cm length, was used to allow passage of a duodenoscope to the papilla.
All overtube assisted ERCP procedures were completed successfully and included sphincterotomy (2), bile duct stone extraction (2), and placement of a metal expandable stent (1).
Use of an overtube allows safe and successful passage of a duodenoscope in patients with anatomic alterations of the esophagus and/or the stomach.
内镜逆行胰胆管造影术(ERCP)在胰腺和胆道疾病的诊断和治疗方面取得了重大进展。然而,解剖变异可能会妨碍ERCP的成功实施。
在4例患者中,由于食管和/或胃的解剖结构改变,十二指肠镜在ERCP过程中的推进受阻。使用80厘米长的外套管,使十二指肠镜能够通过到达乳头。
所有外套管辅助的ERCP操作均成功完成,包括括约肌切开术(2例)、胆管结石取出术(2例)和金属可扩张支架置入术(1例)。
对于食管和/或胃存在解剖结构改变的患者,使用外套管可使十二指肠镜安全且成功地通过。
