Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • technical success rates

    Technical success rates refer to the successful completion of standard procedures or the occurrence of complete spontaneous stone removal.

    during ERCP procedure

  • clearance rates of pancreatic duct stones

    Clearance rates have been defined as complete, partial, or failure if the proportion of stones cleared was \> 90%, 50% - 90%, or \< 50%, respectively.

    during ERCP procedure

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • time taken to completely clear the stone

    during ESWL and ERCP procedure

  • postoperative complications

    30 days after ERCP procedure

  • success rates of pancreatic duct decompression

    during ERCP procedure

Other Outcomes (1)

  • abdominal pain relief rate

    30 days after ERCP procedure

Study Arms (2)

ESWL and ERCP

EXPERIMENTAL

The patients will receive intravenous analgesia (flurbiprofen and remifentanil) before the ESWL (Compact Delta II; Dornier Med Tech, Wessling, Germany). The time scale between the last ESWL session and following ERCP will be greater than 48h. ERCP will be performed under conscious sedation with intramuscular administration of diazepam 2.5-5.0 mg and pethidine 25-50 mg. If necessary, endoscopic sphincterotomy will be performed. A dilating bougie or balloon will be used to dilate the stenosis after sphincterotomy. Standard techniques (i.e., extraction basket, extraction balloon, or both) will be used for stone removal. A pancreatic duct stent or a nasopancreatic catheter will be inserted for temporary drainage if necessary.

Procedure: ESWL and ERCP

LL and ERCP

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

ERCP will be performed under conscious sedation with intramuscular administration of diazepam 2.5-5.0 mg and pethidine 25-50 mg. If necessary, endoscopic sphincterotomy will be performed. A dilating bougie or balloon will be used to dilate the stenosis after sphincterotomy. After that, laser lithotripsy will be performed. Standard techniques (i.e., extraction basket, extraction balloon, or both) will be used for stone removal. A pancreatic duct stent or a nasopancreatic catheter will be inserted for temporary drainage if necessary.

Procedure: LL and ERCP

Interventions

ESWL and ERCPPROCEDURE

First, ESWL will be used for lithotripsy, and then ERCP will be performed to clear the stones after lithotripsy.

ESWL and ERCP
LL and ERCPPROCEDURE

After establishing the working channel under ERCP, the stone will be crushed with a laser lithotripter, and then ERCP will clear the stones after lithotripsy.
