Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography cholangitis after endoscopic treatment of post-transplant biliary strictures: a retrospective study
Post-ERCP cholangitis is a relevant complication of endoscopic treatment and is associated with the presence of non-anastomotic strictures and higher treatment failure rates. Since the success rate of endoscopic intervention in these complex strictures is limited, an optimized peri-interventional management and tailored antibiotic therapy may become particularly important for the further treatment and prognosis of these patients.
