          Abstract

          It remains challenging for endoscopists to manage pancreaticobiliary diseases in patients with ectopic papilla of Vater by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). The present study sought to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ERCP for this issue.

          Consecutive patients with ectopic papilla of Vater who underwent initial ERCP due to pancreaticobiliary diseases were retrospectively analyzed.

          One hundred seven patients with ectopic papilla of Vater were included. The success rate of cannulation was 83.2%. Endoscopic sphincterotomy, endoscopic papillary balloon dilation, and mechanical lithotripsy were performed in 12 (11.2%), 25 (23.4%), and 1 (0.9%) patients, respectively. The technical success rate was 83.2%; of these, endoscopic nasobiliary drainage, endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage, endoscopic retrograde pancreatic drainage, and stone extraction was conducted in 61 (57.0%), 17 (15.9%), 5 (4.7%), and 45 (42.1%) patients, respectively. Bile duct stone size ≥1 cm, number ≥2, and duodenum stenosis were risk factors for stone extraction inability. Adverse events occurred in 20 (18.7%) patients, including post-ERCP pancreatitis (3.7%), hyperamylasemia (12.1%), and infection of biliary tract (2.8%); all of the adverse events were mild and alleviated by conventional therapies.

          ERCP is an appropriate choice for pancreaticobiliary diseases in patients with ectopic papilla of Vater due to its high efficacy and safety. Bile duct stone size ≥1 cm, number ≥2, and duodenum stenosis increase difficulties for stone extraction.

          Endoscopic sphincterotomy complications and their management: an attempt at consensus.

          Despite its relative safety (in comparison with surgery), and undoubted role in many clinical circumstances, biliary sphincterotomy is the most dangerous procedure routinely performed by endoscopists. Complications occur in about 10% of patients; 2 to 3% have a prolonged hospital stay, with a risk of dying. This document is an attempt to provide guidelines for prevention and management of complications, based on a workshop of selected experts, and a comprehensive review of the literature. We emphasize particularly the importance of specialist training, disinfection, drainage, and collaboration with surgical colleagues.

            Endoscopic management of common bile duct stones: European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) guideline

            Main Recommendations ESGE recommends offering stone extraction to all patients with common bile duct stones, symptomatic or not, who are fit enough to tolerate the intervention. Strong recommendation, low quality evidence. ESGE recommends liver function tests and abdominal ultrasonography as the initial diagnostic steps for suspected common bile duct stones. Combining these tests defines the probability of having common bile duct stones. Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. ESGE recommends endoscopic ultrasonography or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography to diagnose common bile duct stones in patients with persistent clinical suspicion but insufficient evidence of stones on abdominal ultrasonography. Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. ESGE recommends the following timing for biliary drainage, preferably endoscopic, in patients with acute cholangitis, classified according to the 2018 revision of the Tokyo Guidelines: – severe, as soon as possible and within 12 hours for patients with septic shock – moderate, within 48 – 72 hours – mild, elective. Strong recommendation, low quality evidence. ESGE recommends endoscopic placement of a temporary biliary plastic stent in patients with irretrievable biliary stones that warrant biliary drainage. Strong recommendation, moderate quality of evidence. ESGE recommends limited sphincterotomy combined with endoscopic papillary large-balloon dilation as the first-line approach to remove difficult common bile duct stones. Strong recommendation, high quality evidence. ESGE recommends the use of cholangioscopy-assisted intraluminal lithotripsy (electrohydraulic or laser) as an effective and safe treatment of difficult bile duct stones. Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. ESGE recommends performing a laparoscopic cholecystectomy within 2 weeks from ERCP for patients treated for choledocholithiasis to reduce the conversion rate and the risk of recurrent biliary events. Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence.
