Patients with acute cholangitis require emergent biliary decompression. Those who are hemodynamically unstable on vasopressor support and mechanical ventilation are too critically ill to move outside of the intensive care unit. This prohibits performing Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in the endoscopy unit. Fluoroscopic guidance is required to confirm deep biliary cannulation during ERCP. There are a few reported cases of bedside ERCP using portable C-arm fluoroscopy unit or ultrasound guided cannulation. We present a unique case of life-saving emergent bedside ERCP in a severely ill patient with cholangitis and septic shock, using simple portable X-ray to confirm biliary cannulation.
急性胆管炎患者需要紧急胆道减压。那些在血管活性药物支持和机械通气下血流动力学不稳定的患者病情过于危重,无法转出重症监护病房。这使得在内镜室进行内镜逆行胰胆管造影术(ERCP)成为不可能。ERCP期间需要荧光透视引导来确认胆管深插管。有少数使用便携式C形臂荧光透视装置或超声引导插管进行床边ERCP的病例报告。我们报告了一例独特的病例,在一名患有胆管炎和感染性休克的重症患者中,使用简单的便携式X射线确认胆管插管,成功进行了挽救生命的紧急床边ERCP。
