Unveiling the Complexity in the Management and Outcomes of Traumatic Versus Non-Traumatic Bile Leaks—A Comparative Analysis
Our findings underscored a higher frequency of non-endoscopic involvement in traumatic injuries, indicating the complexity of these cases. Despite these differences, the study revealed that technical success, clinical success, mortality, and complications do not significantly differ between traumatic and non-traumatic groups, emphasizing the need for tailored management strategies outside of ERCP to address the distinct clinical characteristics of traumatic bile leaks.
