Treatment of Post Sphincterotomy-bleeding by Epinephrine-injection Versus Insertion of an Plastic Stent

NCT03725319 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2020-03-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Post sphinterotomy-bleeding (PSB) occurs in 1-2 % of Endosocpic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) and usually needs no blood transfusion after endoscopic therapy but can be life-threatening in some rare cases.

There are no prospective comparative studies concerning the endoscopic treatment of PSB due to the rarity of the incident.

Insertion of an endoprosthesis in the common bile duct may be more effective than Epinephrin-injection into the papilla which is the therapy of first choice.

A retrospective single centre analysis on both used methods over a study period of 16 years shall be performed.
