It is reported in the literature titled "review of pediatric ercp at our hospital," patients experience post-procedure pancreatitis after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ercp) using one of two types of olympus duodenoscopes.Case with patient identifier (b)(6) reports pjf-240.Case with patient identifier (b)(6) reports jf-260v.Background: ercp for children is described in pediatric gastroenterological endoscopy guidelines.However, due to the variety of diseases and treatments, the guidelines do not provide detailed information.Therefore, the indications for ercp for children may vary from facility to facility.Study goal: to understand the current status of pediatric ercp cases at our hospital and examine their safety.Method: from december 2013 to september 2021, we retrospectively examined 23 cases of 11 children (10 patients of ercp and 5 patients of db-ercp) who tried ercp at our hospital.The items to be examined were 1) patient background, 2) treatment details, and 3) comorbidities.Results: 1) the median age of the target patients at the time of initial ercp was 7 years (0-14 years).The patients were 7 boys and 4 girls.The breakdown of the disease was bile duct stone in 3 cases, pancreatobiliary maljunction in 3 cases, pancreatic duct union failure in 2 cases, anastomotic stenosis in 2 cases, recurrent pancreatitis in 2 cases, annular pancreas in 1 case, and traumatic pancreatic injury in 1 case.2) in 21 patients, intravenous anesthesia was performed, and in 2 patients, general anesthesia was performed.As for the scope, the adult scope (jf260v) was used in 22 patients, and pjf-240 was used in 1 patient.The purpose of ercp was for diagnosis in 2 patients (both pancreatic ducts) and for treatment in 21 patients (for bile ducts in 10 patients and for pancreatic ducts in 11 patients).The treatment success rate was 22/23 (95.7%).The median procedure time was 39 minutes (3-151 minutes).One case of unsuccessful procedure was an annular pancreas case, and eus-pd was performed as an alternative method.3) there were only 2 cases of post-ercp pancreatitis in 1 patient.These two cases were mild.Conclusion: only 0-1 year-old children used pjf-240 with a small diameter, and jf260v could be used for 2 years and older.There is no report of olympus device malfunction in any procedure described in this study.
