Introduction: The continuous monitoring of quality indicators in gastrointestinal endoscopy has become an essential requirement nowadays. Most of these data cannot be extracted from the currently used free text reports, therefore a structured web-based data-collecting system was developed to record the indicators of pancreatobiliary endoscopy.
Aim: A structured data-collecting system, the ERCP Registry, was initiated to monitor endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) examinations prospectively, and to verify its usability.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to diagnose and assess the clinical importance of sphincter of Oddi dysfunction in patients who have undergone cholecystectomy, focusing on those without cholestasis.
- Researchers examined 100 post-operative patients, using hepatobiliary scintigraphy to analyze bile duct and duodenal function and associated symptoms.
- Results revealed two patient groups based on bile flow changes, with a significant correlation between sphincter of Oddi dysfunction and duodenal function disorders, emphasizing the need to consider these findings in treatment decisions.
