Core Tip	Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a mainstay minimally invasive treatment modality for biliary and pancreatic duct obstruction. Despite rapid advances in endoscopic techniques ERCP remains one of the most complication-prone interventions. Although rare, ERCP associated perforations can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not promptly recognized and managed appropriately. This article provides detailed insight into the diagnostic and clinical pathways of managing ERCP associated perforations in a high-volume center, crucial decision-making aspects and promising facets to consider for improved patient outcomes. The results underpin the significance of prompt diagnosis and the importance of multidisciplinary approach when managing ERCP associated perforations.
