Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the gold-standard technique for the diagnosis of biliary obstruction. ERCP is also used for therapeutic purposes. During these procedures (diagnostic and therapeutic), complications such as pancreatitis, infection, hemorrhage, perforation and cardiopulmonary problems may arise. Some of these complications occur frequently, while others are extremely rare, as in the case presented here. In this case report, we present a woman who suffered an electrical burn in the liver during therapeutic ERCP. To our knowledge, this is the first case ever reported, which was caused by a monopolar cutter during ERCP and diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
经内镜逆行胰胆管造影术(ERCP)是诊断胆道梗阻的金标准技术。ERCP 也可用于治疗目的。在这些程序(诊断和治疗)中,可能会出现胰腺炎、感染、出血、穿孔和心肺问题等并发症。其中一些并发症较为常见,而另一些则极为罕见,正如这里介绍的病例。在本病例报告中,我们介绍了一位在治疗性 ERCP 中肝脏遭受电灼伤的女性。据我们所知,这是首例由 ERCP 中的单极切割器引起并通过磁共振成像(MRI)诊断的病例。
