Abstract:
Acute suppurative cholangitis (ASC) is an acute infectious disease of the biliary tract caused by bacterial infection and biliary obstruction. Common bile duct stone is the most common cause of biliary obstruction. Due to the characteristics of rapid onset, rapid progress, various complications, and high mortality of ASC, it has attracted more and more attention in clinical practice. The treatment of ASC includes anti-infective therapy and relief of obstruction, and early relief of obstruction is the key to successful treatment. Endoscopic therapy has long been regarded as the first choice for the relief of obstruction, and with the development of medical technology, various new endoscopic techniques are gradually applied in the treatment of ASC and have thus become the new choices for surgeons and patients. With reference to the advantages and disadvantages of different treatment techniques, this article reviews the endoscopic therapies for ASC caused by common bile duct stones.
