Fulminant Cholangitis after Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography(ERCP) in One Patient with Acute pancreatitis
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
ERCP has gained wide acceptance as a valuable tool for the diagnosis and management of disease of the pancrease and biliary tract. Although complications with this procedure are few, infection has been reported to be a major cause of morbidity
and
mortality. We have cared for one patient with secondary sclerosing cholangitis who had experienced fulminant cholangitis after ERCP in resolving phase of acute pancreatitis. Because of the high mortality rate from septic complications of ERCP, it
is
necessary to administer prophylactic antibiotics and avoid inducing excessively increased bile duct pressure during the procedure and provide effective biliary drainage after procedure.
