Abstract:Objective?To evaluate the influence factors of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP).?Methods?Clinical data of 327 patients underwent endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) for management of choledocholithiasis was analyzed retrospectively. All the patients were divided into PEP group (23 cases) and non-PEP group (304 cases). More than 20 indicators such as clinical manifestation, accompanying diseases, serum biochemical levels, difficult cannulation, bile duct diameter, stone size and number, sphincterotomy size, ENBD, and premedication were statistically analyzed.?Results?The PEP rate was 7.0 %. Univariate analysis showed PEP seems to be associated with serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, gamma-glutamyltransferase, triglyceride, bile duct diameter and cholecystolithiasis. Ultivariate logistic regression indicated only cholecystolithiasis and bile duct diameter are independent influence factors of PEP.?Conclusion?EST patients with Cholecystolithiasis and normal or slight dilation of common bile duct are more likely to have post-ERCP pancreatitis.
