Abstrakt: Background: The revised American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) guideline 2019 provides the high-risk criteria for suspected common bile duct stones (CBDSs). Aims: To evaluate CBDS detection rates during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in high-risk patients with suspected CBDSs based on the ASGE guideline 2019. Methods: This multicenter retrospective study included 1100 consecutive patients who underwent ERCP for suspected CBDSs with any high-risk criteria based on the revised ASGE guideline 2019: Criterion 1, CBDSs on imaging; Criterion 2, clinical ascending cholangitis; and Criterion 3, total bilirubin exceeding 4 mg/dL and dilated common bile duct on imaging. We compared CBDS detection rates during ERCP based on individual and combined high-risk criteria. Results: The CBDS detection rates of patients who met any of the criteria, only Criterion 1, and Criteria 2 or 3 were 86.0% (946/1100), 93.4% (113/121), and 50.0% (106/212), respectively. In patients who met Criteria 1 and 2, 1 and 3, 2 and 3, and all criteria, CBDSs were confirmed during ERCP in 95.1% (490/515), 96.2% (25/26), 55.3% (26/47), and 98.4% (186/189), respectively. The CBDS detection rate during ERCP of patients with at least Criterion 1 significantly exceeded that of patients without at least Criterion 1 [95.7% (814/851) vs. 51.0% (132/259), respectively, P < 0.001]. Conclusions: Patients with CBDS visualization on imaging have very high CBDS detection rates during ERCP. However, performing ERCP on patients with only clinical predictors, such as cholangitis and dilated CBD with total bilirubin exceeding 4 mg/dL, often results in unnecessary ERCP.
