ERCP is a specialized endoscopic procedure used to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the bile ducts, gallbladder, and pancreatic ducts. It combines endoscopy with real-time imaging to identify blockages, stones, strictures, or abnormal growths.
Unlike standard endoscopy, ERCP is primarily therapeutic. It allows removal of bile duct stones, placement of stents, dilation of narrowed ducts, and relief of obstruction without the need for open surgery.
This procedure plays a critical role in managing jaundice, pancreatitis caused by duct obstruction, and complex biliary disorders, offering a minimally invasive treatment option with faster recovery.
