Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is increasingly used for therapeutic biliary endoscopy. This review covers 2006 literature on ERCP applications, safety, and managing biliary tract diseases.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Endoscopic Procedures
  • Biliary Tract Diseases

Background:

  • Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is primarily reserved for therapeutic interventions.
  • Recent literature supports the expanding therapeutic applications of ERCP.
  • This review focuses on advancements in biliary endoscopy from 2006.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the 2006 literature on biliary endoscopy.
  • To assist gastroenterologists and gastrointestinal surgeons in clinical practice.
  • To highlight updates in the management of biliary tract diseases.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of biliary endoscopy for 2006.
  • Analysis of therapeutic uses and safety of ERCP.
  • Discussion of recent advancements in endoscopic management.
