Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is one of the mainstay procedure treatment of hepatobiliary and pancreatic diseases. Life-threatening complications such as pneumoperitoneum, pneumoretroperitoneum, pneumomediastinum, subcutaneous emphysema and pneumothorax related to this procedure rarely occur and only a few cases are reported in English literature. Herein, we report a patient who developed acute abdominal symptoms with subcutaneous emphysema and bilateral pneumothorax due to duodenal perforation, accompaniment of ERCP that was successfuly treated.
内镜逆行胰胆管造影术（ERCP）是肝胆胰疾病的主要治疗手段之一。与该手术相关的危及生命的并发症，如气腹、腹膜后积气、纵隔气肿、皮下气肿和气胸很少发生，英文文献中仅报道了少数病例。在此，我们报告一例因十二指肠穿孔并发ERCP术后出现急性腹部症状伴皮下气肿和双侧气胸的患者，该患者已成功治愈。
