| Popis: | Objective: To determine the efficacy of ERCP in acute severe biliary pancreatitis inrelation to rate of complications and hospital stay. Patients and Methods: 30 patents wereincluded in the study, divided into ERCP group & Non ERCP group. The study was conducted atSurgical Unit-I, Holy Family Hospital Rawalpindi from July 2009 to April 2011. ERCP Groupcomprised of 11 patients and non ERCP Group 19 patients. All patients having severe acutebiliary pancreatitis raised alkaline phosphatase and common bile duct diameter >8mm wereincluded in the study. Results: In ERCP Group, there were 3 males and 4 females with mean age42.77 ± 14 years. In non ERCP group there were 17 males and 2 females with mean age 46.76 ±13 years. ERCP was done within 3 day in 8 patients and within 7 day in 5 patients in ERCP group.The rate of complications in both groups was insignificant (P= .92). The length of hospital stayalso does not differ significantly between two groups (P=.874). Conclusions: In our set up therewas no significant difference in outcome in ERCP and non-ERCP group of severe acutepancreatitis.
