For decades, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has been widely performed as a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure for biliary and pancreatic diseases. Complications of ERCP include pancreatitis, hemorrhage, perforation, cholangitis, and cholecystitis. There are few studies that focus on the incidence of post-ERCP cholecystitis and its potential risk factors.
