Effective Treatment for Bile Duct Stones

CBD (Common Bile Duct) stones can block the flow of bile and lead to severe pain, jaundice, and infections. ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography) is a specialized endoscopic procedure used to diagnose and remove these stones safely without the need for open surgery.

What is ERCP?

ERCP is an advanced procedure that combines endoscopy and imaging techniques to examine the bile ducts, pancreatic duct, and gallbladder area. It allows doctors to detect and remove stones from the common bile duct using specialized instruments.

When is it Recommended?

This procedure is advised for patients experiencing:

• Severe abdominal pain
• Jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes)
• Bile duct obstruction
• Infection in bile ducts (cholangitis)
• Pancreatitis caused by gallstones

How the Procedure Works

• A flexible endoscope is passed through the mouth into the small intestine
• A contrast dye is injected to visualize the bile ducts
• X-ray imaging helps locate the stones
• Special tools are used to remove or break the stones
• A stent may be placed if required
