Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the effectiveness of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in treating acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP) in Hungary, highlighting the challenges of determining when to use the procedure.
  • Out of 356 ABP patients, 75% underwent ERCP, but the procedure had suboptimal indicators, with biliary cannulation success rates at only 84% and higher complications in cases of unsuccessful cannulation and clearance.
  • The research concludes that timely and effective ERCP is essential for better patient outcomes, as delays in performing the procedure can lead to increased local complications.

Aim: To investigate the effectiveness of rectally administered indomethacin in the prophylaxis of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis and hyperamylasaemia in a multicentre study.

Methods: A prospective, randomised, placebo-controlled multicentre study in five endoscopic units was conducted on 686 patients randomised to receive a suppository containing 100 mg indomethacin, or an inert placebo, 10-15 min before ERCP. Post-ERCP pancreatitis and hyperamylasaemia were evaluated 24 h following the procedure on the basis of clinical signs and laboratory parameters, and computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging findings if required.
