ERCP

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a highly specialized medical procedure that combines endoscopy and X-ray technology to diagnose and treat disorders of the biliary system, pancreas, and gallbladder. During the procedure, a thin, flexible tube with a camera (endoscope) is inserted through the mouth into the digestive tract, reaching the small intestine. A contrast dye is injected into the bile and pancreatic ducts, making them visible on X-rays.

What Conditions Does ERCP Diagnose and Treat?

Gallstones lodged in bile or pancreatic ducts
Tumors or blockages in the bile duct and pancreas
Chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic infections
Narrowing (strictures) of the bile ducts
Biliary leaks due to surgery or trauma

Why Choose ERCP?

🔹 Dual Purpose – ERCP not only diagnoses but also treats many conditions in the same procedure.
🔹 Minimally Invasive – No major incisions are required, leading to quicker recovery.
🔹 Highly Accurate – Provides detailed imaging of pancreatic and bile ducts.
🔹 Immediate Treatment – Stones can be removed, or stents can be placed during the procedure.
