Article Synopsis
- The study compared three techniques for ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) in patients who had undergone Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: enteroscopy-assisted (EA-ERCP), laparoscopy-assisted (LA-ERCP), and endoscopic ultrasound-directed (EDGE).
- 67 studies were analyzed, showing that EDGE had the highest technical success rate at 96%, followed by LA-ERCP at 93%, and EA-ERCP at 77%, with significant differences between EA-ERCP and the other methods.
- The overall rates of adverse events were similar across all techniques, suggesting that EDGE and LA-ERCP are both effective and as safe
