BACKGROUND: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an essential diagnostic and therapeutic procedure for pancreatobiliary disorders. However, few large-scale studies from South Asia have examined long-term ERCP outcomes, particularly using established quality benchmarks.
AIM: To evaluate ERCP indications, success rates, complications, and quality performance at a high-volume tertiary care center in Pakistan over a 17-year period.
METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed 13215 ERCP procedures performed between 2006 and 2023. Data included demographics, indications, cannulation rates, complications, and pediatric cases. Findings were assessed against American Society of Gastroenterology/European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy quality indicators.
RESULTS: Biliary ERCP accounted for 93.1% of procedures; choledocholithiasis was the most common indication (40%). Cannulation success was 93.9% for biliary and 94.2% for pancreatic ERCP. Pediatric ERCP comprised 4% of cases, mostly for stones and chronic pancreatitis. Bleeding (1.7%) and post-ERCP pancreatitis (2.3%) were the most frequent complications. Performance met or exceeded most American Society of Benchmarks.
CONCLUSION: This study offers insight into nearly two decades of ERCP practice within a public sector hospital. Our experience echoes the quality and efficiency of ERCP not previously available in Pakistan. As healthcare systems in resource-limited sectors expand, our findings serve as a reference point. Continued training and quality improvement studies can further enhance ERCP effectiveness in the region and beyond.
