Abstract:
Objective Objective To analysis the clinical curative effect on elderly patients with choledocholithiasis by endoscopic retro-grade cholangiopancreatography ( ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy ( EST) and discuss its clinical significance. Methods 256 patients with choledocholithiasis were collected for diagnosis and treatment by ERCP. The stone characteristics was mastered by ERCP and the pa-tients were treated with EST. Results Patients with choledocholithiasis were successful in 249 cases (97. 27%) for ERCP intubation and 239 cases (93. 36%) for stone remove. After EST,the stones were removed successfully at one time in 199 cases (83. 26%),2 times in 40 cases (16. 74%). 7 patients (2. 73%) with multiple diverticulum and papillary position poor by intubation failure were changed over to op-eration treatment. After ERCP,patients were performed endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) 64. 44% (154/239). Pull out the drain-age tube of 90. 91% (140/154) of the patients after stones disappeared which was proved by angiography for 3~5 days. 14 cases (9. 09%) were performed second times to remove the stones due to the presence of residual stones. Postoperative complications occured in 15 cases (6. 02%) including 9 cases of acute pancreatitis and 6 cases of infection of biliary tract, and they were cured after 1 week of corresponding treatment. Transient increase of serum amylase occurred in 39 cases, and all of them recoveried after 3 days without special treatment. Con-clusion The results showed that ERCP ( or EST) were well tolerated by elderly patients with choledocholithiasis,and they were of obvious curative effect and quick recovery,which is worthy of promotion and application.
