Article Synopsis
- A study evaluated whether rectal indomethacin provides any additional benefits in preventing pancreatitis during ERCP for patients already receiving pancreatic stenting.
- In a cohort of 607 high-risk patients, no significant differences were found in the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis or related complications between those who received indomethacin and those who didn’t.
- The findings suggest that adding rectal indomethacin to the standard prophylactic pancreatic stenting is unnecessary, as it did not improve outcomes for these patients.
