NCT03649399

Brief Summary

The Retention of pancreatic stents for prophylaxis of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is assessed by abdominal x-ray according to international Guidelines. The current study aimed to analyze whether prophylactic pancreatic stents can be detected by transdermal ultrasound to save the x-ray examination.
