| Core Tip |
We investigated whether the location of the inserted pancreatic stent rather than pancreatic stent length influenced the frequency of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) hyperamylasemia and post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). Pancreatic amylase isoenzyme levels after ERCP were significantly higher in the head group than in the body/tail group. PEP did not occur in the body/tail group. Stent insertion into the pancreatic head was an independent risk factor for hyperamylasemia after ERCP, while stent insertion up to the pancreatic body or tail reduced the risk of post-ERCP hyperamylasemia and may reduce the risk of PEP. |
