VALIDATION OF A PREDETERMINED PROTOCOL FOR ENDOSCOPIC MANAGEMENT OF BILE DUCT STONES

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video discusses a protocol for the efficient and effective management of Bardock stones using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). The majority of stones can be extracted using standard maneuvers such as biliary sphincterotomy and balloon extraction. In challenging cases, advanced endoscopy techniques like balloon sphincteroplasty and lithotripsy may be necessary. The video provides detailed instructions on performing these procedures, emphasizing the importance of careful stone extraction to prevent complications. The proposed protocol was validated in a study of 260 patients, achieving a high success rate of 99.6%. This video provides valuable guidance for endoscopists dealing with Bardock stones.
