Abstract
Background: Due to the increasing use of laparoscopy for symptomatic cholelithiasis and other gallbladder disorders, as well as the ongoing issue of associated biliary tree injuries, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) still holds a significant position in the diagnosis and treatment of postcholecystectomy disorders. In our study, we aimed to examine the relationship between the time elapsed between cholecystectomy and ERCP with the post-ERCP complications. Methods: Ninety-six patients with a history of cholecystectomy who underwent ERCP between January 2016 and January 2021 at the General Surgery Clinic of the University of Health Sciences Bakırköy Dr. Sadi Konuk Health Application and Research Center were retrospectively evaluated. Patient and procedure-related factors were analyzed statistically through univariate analyses. Results: In the matter of post-ERCP complication status, differences observed in terms of age, body mass index (BMI) values, gender, comorbidities, number of ERCP procedures, and the time elapsed between cholecystectomy and ERCP among cases were not statistically significant. Discussion: Our study demonstrates that age, BMI values, gender, comorbidities, ERCP count, and the time between procedures are not significant risk factors for post-ERCP complications. Regardless of the time between surgery and ERCP, the presence of post-ERCP complications is comparable.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques (JLAST) is the leading international peer-reviewed journal for practicing surgeons who want to keep up with the latest thinking and advanced surgical technologies in laparoscopy, endoscopy, NOTES, and robotics. The Journal is ideally suited to surgeons who are early adopters of new technology and techniques. Recognizing that many new technologies and techniques have significant overlap with several surgical specialties, JLAST is the first journal to focus on these topics both in general and pediatric surgery, and includes other surgical subspecialties such as: urology, gynecologic surgery, thoracic surgery, and more.
