扫码查看
Endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) is considered as a possible etiological factor for severe cholangitis.We herein report a case of severe cholangitis after endoscopic sphincterotomy induced by barium examination.An adult male patient presented with epigastric pain was diagnosed as having choledocholithiasis by ultrasonography.EST was performed and the stone was completely cleaned.Barium examination was done 3d after EST and severe cholangitis appeared 4 h later.The patient was recovered after treated with tienam for 4 d.Barium examination may induce severe cholangitis in patients after EST,although rare,barium examination should be chosen cautiously.Cautions should be also used when EST is performed in patients younger than 50 years to avoid the damage to the sphincter of Oddi.
