Abstract:
Endoscopic sphincterotomy is the procedure of choice for choleducolithiasis post-cholecystectomy, and in poor-surgical-risk patients with the gallbladder still present. Sphincterotomy indications have been expanded to include acute biliary pancreatitis, acute cholangitis, and choleducolithiasis removal prior to definitive surgery. This paper will review the available literature and make recommendations on these new indications.
