ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the safety of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogra-phy(ERCP)and its associated treatments in the elderly aged 65 years and over, and analyze the related factors leading to postoperative complications.Methods:Totally 512 patients who received ERCP and its associated treatments in the Department of Gastroenterology, Peking University People's Hospital from January 2013 to January 2019 were included retrospectively.The clinical data, operative procedures and postoperative complications were collected.The differences in underlying diseases, operative procedures and postoperative complications between the elderly group(≥65 years old, n=301)and the non-elderly group(n=211)were compared, and the correlations between them were analyzed.Results:The proportion of hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and diverticulum beside the nipple was higher in the elderly group than in the non-elderly group(all P<0.01). The proportion of preoperative medication of anticoagulant and antiplatelet drugs was higher in the elderly group than in the non-elderly group(all P<0.01). There were no significant differences in cholelithiasis, history of biliary surgery, history of ERCP, immunity disease and tumor between the two groups(all P>0.05). Endoscopic sphincterotomy was the most common ERCP-associated treatments in both groups, followed by the order of endoscopic balloon dilation of the nipple, endoscopic biliary stent drainage, pancreatic duct intubation, and pancreatic duct stenting.The proportions of endoscopic papillary balloon dilation and endoscopic biliary stent drainage were 34.6%(104 cases)and 18.9%(57 cases)respectively, in the elderly group, which were statistically significantly higher than 25.6%(54 cases)and 11.4%(24 cases)in the non-elderly group(all P<0.05). The common bile duct diameter and maximum stone diameter were(1.32±0.43)cm and(1.04±0.53)cm, respectively in the elderly group, which were statistically significantly higher than those in the non-elderly group(1.16±0.40)cm and(0.81±0.03)cm respectively, ( t values were -4.23 and -4.76, respectively, all P<0.01). The proportions of endoscopic papillary balloon dilation and biliary stent drainage were statistically significantly higher in elderly patients than in non-elderly patients(all P<0.05). The incidence of intraoperative bleeding was 4.0%(12 cases)and 5.7%(12 cases)in the elderly group and non-elderly group, respectively, with no statistical significance( χ2=0.08, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative pancreatitis, bleeding, perforation, infection and contrast agent-related complications(all P>0.05). Conclusions:Clinically widely used high-risk endoscopic papillary balloon dilation and endoscopic biliary stent drainage(ERCP-associated treatments)are frequently performed in elderly patients, and do not increase intraoperative bleeding and postoperative complications in the elderly.Therefore, ERCP-associated treatments are safe for the elderly.
