ENDOSCOPIC RETROGRADE CHOLANGIO PANCREATOGRAPHY (ERCP)
GALL BLADDER STONES TREATMENT
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio Pancreatography is an advanced endoscopic procedure related to
diseases of pancreas and biliary tree. Common indication for ERCP is jaundice due to obstruction
of biliary tube, which drains the bile from the liver into the intestine.
Obstruction can be due to a gallstone, which has slipped into bile tube and has blocked the bile tube.
These Stones can be removed by ERCP, without any surgery being involved.
This procedure is necessary if the patient has stones in the gallbladder and also in bile tube and
is always performed before Laparoscopic removal of gallbladder. Cancer of the gallbladder, biliary tree, pancreas,
duodenum or obstruction by lymph nodes can be responsible for jaundice and can be very effectively
treated by ERCP without any need for surgery.
This technique is important in these conditions as majority of the patients coming for jaundice are at an advanced stage of cancer and need palliative treatment to give relief from severe itching and jaundice. Infection or narrowing in the biliary tree can be treated by ERCP.
