ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluated the security of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) among the patients aged over 80 years. Methods 80 patients who were accepted ERCP and aged over 80 years were analgzed, to learn the diseases of patients and evaluate what the impact of ERCP. To complete ERCP in the shortest time, we observed of vital signs, abdominal symptoms and nasal biliary drainage rigorouly after the opration , and to test blood routine, serum amylase, urine amylase and biochemical indicators, detect whether secondary or aggravate other organs damage within 1 week. Results There were 11 cases (13.75%) had secondary organs damage, the percentage of with over two diseases is 51.25%, 78 cases (96.25%) accepted the ERCP, the primary success rate of lithotomy in 55 cases of common bile duct stones is 74.55%, among them there were 3 cases accepted internal drainage by cutting the nasobiliary since they can not be conducted lithotomy once more. One patient of pancreatic carcinoma complicated with duodenal stenosis was treated in implantation of biliary metal stent after accepted the dilation of bile duct , and then the stent was implanted in the narrow duodenum. One patient was died of heart failure, renal failure and respiratory failure after one week; There were no other serious complications occurred, the total incidence rate of complication was 7.50%, the average operation time was (26.64 ± 8.31) min. Conclusions The patients over 80 years old are relatively safe for ERCP, the effect is obviously, and appropriate management of perioperative can reduce the incidence of complications.
