Post-ERCP cholangitis (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) and associated sepsis can be lifethreatening. Despite the wealth of studies on post-ERCP pancreatitis risk factors, there is limited data on post-ERCP cholangitis. This study aimed to investigate the rates, predictors, and outcomes of post-ERCP cholangitis.
