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.

Olecranon bursitis can be treated with a new extrabursal endoscopic technique. This method offers a satisfactory view with less morbidity than open surgery, avoiding direct wounds over the olecranon.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Minimally invasive procedures

Background:

  • Olecranon bursitis is a frequent clinical issue.
  • Conservative management is common due to high wound complication rates with open surgery.
  • Conventional arthroscopic techniques involve entering the bursa for inside-out removal.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel extrabursal endoscopic technique for olecranon bursitis.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of this new endoscopic approach.

Main Methods:

  • An extrabursal endoscopic technique was developed, excising the bursa without entering it.
  • Endoscopic vision was utilized for the entire procedure.
  • The technique avoids direct incision over the olecranon tip.

Endaural Endoscopic Atticoantrotomy (Retrograde Mastoidectomy) using a Constant Suction Bone-drilling Technique

Published on: May 23, 2021

Main Results:

  • The extrabursal endoscopic technique provides a satisfactory surgical view.
  • This method results in less morbidity compared to traditional open surgery.
  • The technique successfully avoids creating a wound directly over the sensitive olecranon.

Conclusions:

  • The extrabursal endoscopic technique is a viable alternative for olecranon bursitis treatment.
  • This approach offers reduced morbidity and improved wound management compared to open surgery.
  • Endoscopic visualization ensures effective bursa excision while protecting the olecranon.
