[Therapeutic results after XXXX following ERCP].

@entity1 @entity854 @entity1829 @entity298 @entity130
INTRODUCTION: Our goal was to compare operative vs. conservative therapeutic strategies after @entity130 following ERCP. METHODS: Eight @entity1 with ERCP-induced @entity130 were surveyed retrospectively. Four of them were treated operatively, four conservatively. Criteria for an operative therapy were clinical and radiological findings and laboratory data. RESULTS: The four @entity1 that were treated conservatively had an uncomplicated course whereas three of four @entity1 treated operatively had long and complicated stays. In these @entity1 the operation was performed more than 24 hours after injury. All of them showed advanced @entity298 . One @entity1 was operated on within 24 hours. He was discharged after a short stay without complications. All @entity130 were located in the retroperitoneum. Five @entity1 showed @entity854 of either duodenum, @entity1829 or common bile duct. In five cases the duodenum was involved in the injury. CONCLUSIONS: The course of disease of the operated @entity1 was longer and more complicated compared to those treated conservatively. According to our data the timing of the operation seems to be an important criterion with respect to the prognosis. Due to the small number of @entity1 , whether conservative therapy should be preferred cannot be determined. The role of the location of injury is also not clarified.
