ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss clinical effects of combined use of duodenoscopy and laparoscopy in the treatment of acute billiary pancreatitis(ABP).Methods The clinical data of 94 ABP patients who underwent minimally invasive treatment from February 2001 to Feburary 2006 were retrospectively reviewed.Among 94 ABP patients,59 patients had gallbladder stones were given laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC)alone;14 patients had common bile duct stones received endoscopic nasobiliary drainage(ENBD),combined endoscopic sphincterotomy(EST)and LC;21 patients had both gallbladder and common bile duct stones received combined EST and LC.Results Postoperatively,in the whole group,only one patient had recurrent pancreatitis,one patient had hemobilia,and both cases followed ERCP+EST;two cases had lung infection,and one case had infection of abdominal incision.All of the 5 cases with postoperative compllcations were successfully treated by conservative therapy.The effective rate for the whole group was 100%.Conclusions Combined use of duodenoscopy and laparoscopy is significantly effective for treatment of acute biliary pancreatitis and this minimally invasive treatment is the ideal therapy for acute biliary pancreatitis.
