    Urographic visualization during ERCP, a common finding, significantly increases the risk of postprocedure pancreatitis. Acinarization combined with visualization poses the highest risk, while acinarization alone does not appear to be a risk factor.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Postprocedure pancreatitis is a known complication of ERCP.
    • Identifying risk factors for pancreatitis is crucial for patient safety.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the association between urographic visualization and acinarization of contrast material with postprocedure pancreatitis.
    • To determine if these findings during ERCP predict pancreatitis risk.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 140 consecutive ERCP procedures with pancreatic duct filling.
    • Analysis of the incidence of pancreatitis in patients with and without urographic visualization and acinarization.

    Main Results:

    • Urographic visualization was present in 21% of patients, with a 45% pancreatitis rate.

  • Patients without visualization had a 4% pancreatitis rate.
  • Acinarization with urographic visualization showed a 53% pancreatitis rate, while acinarization alone had a 4% rate.

    • Conclusions:

    • Urographic visualization during ERCP is a significant indicator of high risk for postprocedure pancreatitis.
    • Acinarization combined with urographic visualization is associated with a high risk, but acinarization alone is not.
    • Close examination of radiographs is essential for detecting renal opacification during ERCP.
