ERCP Simulator

Is ERCP better than surgery?

1. Minimally invasive: reduce bleeding and other complications, high success rate, short course of disease, good efficacy, fewer complications and other advantages.

2. During the operation, direct observation of the duodenal papilla and histological biopsy can be achieved, and cholangiography can be performed.

3. For obstructive jaundice caused by choledocholithiasis, ERCP can be used to remove the lesion through the duodenal papilla.

4. Bilateral and multi-branch biliary drainage can be performed through the ERCP approach. For left and right multiple bile duct obstruction caused by hilar bile duct stenosis, the bilirubin level can be reduced by one or more treatments.

5. It is not affected by liver function and blood coagulation mechanism, and has a very important value in the diagnosis of obstructive jaundice.

Does ERCP remove gallstones?

ERCP is the recognized diagnostic standard for pancreato-bile duct diseases, mainly for the treatment of biliary and pancreatic diseases.

In general, indications for ERCP include:

Choledocholithiasis, acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis, obstructive jaundice, acute biliary pancreatitis,

Pancreatic tumor, chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic cyst, etc.

During the operation of ERCP, biliary duct stents can be placed to realize biliary duct drainage and alleviate symptoms such as biliary duct obstruction and infection. Moreover, about 80% of patients with biliary duct stones will gradually shrink. Therefore, ERCP technology is currently the first choice for the treatment of choledocholithiasis.
