Endoscopic papillectomy in Germany: a comprehensive analysis of clinical trends and hospital mortality in Germany
EP is increasingly used in Germany and remains a minimally invasive, organ-preserving procedure with a low hospital mortality of 1.75%, slightly higher than previously reported but still favorable compared to surgery. Identified complications may support better patient selection and improve peri- and post-interventional management to reduce risks and enhance outcomes.
