ERCP & Bile Duct Stone Extraction

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a highly specialized procedure used to diagnose and treat disorders of the bile ducts, pancreas, and gallbladder.

Bile duct stones (choledocholithiasis) can cause significant discomfort and lead to complications such as pain, jaundice, or infections like cholangitis. ERCP is a state-of-the-art technique that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to precisely locate and remove bile duct stones. In addition to stone removal, ERCP is instrumental in diagnosing and managing other bile duct and pancreatic conditions, such as strictures, tumors, or leaks. Therapeutic interventions, including stent placement and sphincterotomy, can also be performed during the procedure, offering a comprehensive approach to treatment.
