Abstract
The ageing population in the UK means that biliary diseases are becoming more common. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is therefore increasingly being used as a therapeutic strategy. However, the elderly population often have associated co-morbidities and poorer physical health, which would suggest that ERCP may be technically more challenging, or of higher risk in this group. We look at the safety of ERCP in patients over 90.
