Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of endoscopy for the treatment of acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis. Methods Data of 182 patients suffering from acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis, in whom endoscopic treatment was undertaken, were retrospectively analysed. Results All patients received endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST). Among them, 25 patients underwent endoscopic retractor-biliary drainage (ERBD), 140 patients received endoscopic naso-biliary drainage (ENBD), and in 17 cases endoscopic metal retractor-biliary drainage (EMBD) was done. The treatment was successfully in all patients. The clinical findings were markedly improved after treatment in all of them. Conclusion Endoscopic treatment was a fast, safe, effective and economic method for the treatment of acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis.
