The pathogenic mechanisms underlying sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (SOD) remain incompletely understood, and it often leads to severe symptoms encompassing nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. New evidence now suggests correlations between nitric oxide (NO) and SOD. In this review, we summarized the factors influencing SOD pathogenesis via NO and its derivative, the peroxynitrite anion. NO appears to enhance SOD progression by modulating sphincter of Oddi (SO) contractions via NO-sGC-cGMP signaling or inducing the apoptosis of enteric neurons, interstitial cells of Cajal, smooth muscle cells, and other cellular components via peroxynitrite anion-mediated organelle damage. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of SOD will provide a foundation for the identification of potential drugs and treatment approaches.

We present a case of a patient with chronic right upper quadrant pain, diagnosed with reduced GBEF, normal labs, and no gallstones. The patient's symptoms resolved after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and sphincterotomy, revealing a mild, non-obstructive stricture in the middle third of the common bile duct.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has evolved from mainly a diagnostic tool to a treatment method, thanks to newer noninvasive techniques like magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). This paper looks at how ERCP is used to treat conditions such as acute gallstone pancreatitis, pancreas divisum (PD), sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (SOD), and chronic pancreatitis (CP). For acute gallstone pancreatitis, early ERCP to reduce severity or mortality is now questioned, except when there is cholangitis or ongoing bile duct blockage.

A 50-year-old male was diagnosed with a submucosal tumor of the ampulla of Vater, as determined by esophagogastroduodenoscopy 9 months before surgery. EUS revealed that the submucosal tumor had invaded the sphincter of Oddi surrounding the ampulla of Vater, and tumor biopsy revealed neuroendocrine tumor(NET)Grade 1(G1). As contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed no obvious lymph node or distant metastasis, a subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy with lymph node dissection was performed.

Background And Aims: ERCP carries potential for serious adverse events, and there is risk for unplanned health encounters after the procedure. The primary objective of this study was to identify the rate of 30-day hospital admission after outpatient ERCP in patients at elevated risk for post-ERCP pancreatitis based on patient- and procedure-related risk factors. We also explored whether pancreatitis rates and lengths of hospital stay differ with delayed hospitalization (versus admission immediately after ERCP) and identified factors associated with 30-day hospital admission.
