Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Modified eversion endarterectomy (MEE) offers a safe and effective treatment for carotid artery stenosis (CAS). This technique demonstrates acceptable morbidity, mortality, and a low restenosis rate, questioning the routine use of shunting and neuromonitoring.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Cerebrovascular Disease
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a standard procedure for carotid artery stenosis (CAS).
  • Eversion CEA provides an autogenous repair.
  • Modified eversion endarterectomy (MEE) facilitates plaque extraction via a linear incision, allowing primary closure.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a modified eversion endarterectomy (MEE) technique.
  • To assess the outcomes of MEE in patients with carotid artery stenosis.
  • To determine the complication and restenosis rates associated with MEE.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 221 MEE procedures performed over 5 years at two institutions.
  • Data collected included patient demographics, symptoms, stenosis degree, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes.

Optimization of the Longa Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion Method for Complete Reperfusion

Published on: November 22, 2024

  • Follow-up included duplex criteria for restenosis (>50% stenosis).

    • Main Results:

    • MEE was performed for symptomatic (31%) and asymptomatic (68.8%) CAS.
    • Low complication rates: TIA (2%), cerebral infarction (1%), myocardial infarction (1%), hematoma (3%).
    • Average cross-clamp time was 12.8 minutes; 30-day mortality was 1%; restenosis rate was 1% within 2 years.

    Conclusions:

    • MEE is a safe and effective treatment for CAS with acceptable morbidity and mortality.
    • The technique achieves low restenosis rates without routine patch angioplasty.
    • Brief clamp times suggest routine shunting and neuromonitoring may not be necessary, potentially reducing costs.
