Endoscopic transpapillary interventions for cholelithiasis complications

Abstract

The article provides a review of modern literature on the problem of treatment of cholelithiasis complications and endoscopic transpapillary interventions. The pathogenetic mechanisms of these complications were analyzed. Studies on the impact of the timing of laparoscopic cholecystectomy after endoscopic transpapillary interventions show that the risk of recurrent biliary complications increases significantly in patients when cholecystectomy was delayed, while early performance of this operation after endoscopic transpapillary interventions reduces the risk of developing these complications
