| Core Tip |
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) plays a major role in the investigation and treatment of pancreaticobiliary diseases. However, post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is a severe adverse effect. To prevent PEP, prophylactic pancreatic stent (PS) placement was recommended in some randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We performed this meta-analysis that included only RCTs with full-text articles to evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic PS for preventing PEP. As a result, the rates of PEP and severe PEP occurrence were statistically lower in the stent group than in the no stent group. Prophylactic PS was efficient in preventing PEP. |
