Comparison of Early and Delayed Diagnosis on Mortality in ERCP Perforations: A High-Volume Patient Experience

Although ERCP (Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) perforation is a rare complication, it results in high morbidity and mortality. In this study, clinical evaluation was performed concerning the incidence, clinical data and time of diagnosis for ERCP perforations that were either surgically or medically treated. To reduce the ERCP perforations and related mortality, in this study, we aimed to reveal the clinical features and compare them with the literature.
