Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) offer advantages for diagnosing and treating biliary and pancreatic disorders. This review covers current and emerging ERCP/EST techniques for various pancreatobiliary diseases.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Endoscopic Surgery

Background:

  • Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) have advanced since their inception.
  • Endoscopic interventions offer advantages over percutaneous transhepatic approaches for pancreatobiliary disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of current and developing ERCP- and EST-based diagnostic and therapeutic techniques.
  • To discuss the application of these endoscopic techniques across a spectrum of pancreatobiliary diseases.

Main Methods:

  • Review of established and emerging ERCP and EST techniques.
  • Analysis of applications in diagnosing and treating benign and malignant pancreatobiliary conditions.

Main Results:

  • ERCP and EST are valuable for biopsy, pancreatography, and managing biliary stenoses and choledocholithiasis.

  • The precise role of many endoscopic interventions requires further investigation through controlled studies.

    • Conclusions:

    • Endoscopic techniques provide a minimally invasive and effective approach to pancreatobiliary disease management.
    • Continued research is essential to clarify the optimal application of evolving ERCP and EST procedures.
