Abstract
|
|
|
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a safe procedure with life-threatening complications rarely occurring after the procedure. There are several reports of complications with ERCP, including bleeding, perforation, pancreatitis, cholangitis and cholecystitis. In our case, an umbilical hernia was strangulated after therapeutic ERCP had been performed in a patient with acute pancreatitis by a biliary stone, which required a surgical resection. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of such a case in Korea. This case highlights the need for close and careful observations for the early detection of possible complications after ERCP.
