​​​

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an advanced endoscopic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy (real-time X-ray) to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the bile ducts, gallbladder, and pancreatic duct. ERCP is performed by fellowship-trained endoscopists with subspecialty expertise — not all gastroenterologists perform this procedure.

​

When is ERCP Recommended?

​​

• Removal of bile duct stones (choledocholithiasis)

• Treatment of bile duct strictures — benign or malignant

• Placement of biliary stents for obstruction from pancreatic cancer or cholangiocarcinoma

• Evaluation and treatment of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC)

• Pancreatitis related to bile duct stones

• Evaluation of chronic pancreatitis with pancreatic duct complications
