Abstract
The role of preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in ampullary carcinomas is under debate due to potential associated complications. We report the case of a 59-year-old male diagnosed with ampullary cancer, who had undergone ERCP that was followed by bleeding and perforation. We conclude that interventions before surgical resection, including ERCP, may compromise patient outcome.
