| Core Tip |
Our aim was to compare the outcomes of acute cholangitis (AC) with those of two common causes, malignant biliary obstruction (MBO) and common bile duct stones. We found that clinical manifestations such as body temperature, percentage of abnormal white blood cell count, and serum aspartate aminotransferase levels were significantly lower in the MBO group. The MBO group also had a significantly higher proportion of severe AC and a longer time to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). The 30-d mortality rate was significantly higher in the MBO group. Therefore, early recognition and early acceptance of ERCP are critical for MBO patients with AC. |
