An observational, descriptive study of the records of 53 endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) performed
on 31 patients of pediatric age with suspected biliopancreatic disorders at the National Center for Minimal Access Surgery
was performed over a period of 2 years and 7 months, from 11 February 2013 to 28 July 2015. Of the total, 8 patients (27%)
were male, and 22 (73%) female; 14 (26%) were diagnostic and 39 (74%) therapeutic. The primary indication was to study pain
with elevated enzymes in 27 (50%), and the main diagnosis was postoperative benign common bile duct-anastomosis stricture
in 14 patients (26%), followed by 10 normal ERCP (19%). The intervention used was endoscopic sphincterotomy (16) for
placement of prosthesis (7), followed in frequency with stone extraction (6). There were complications in 2 cases, one (2%) in
21 therapeutic procedures, and one (2%) at diagnosis. Mortality was zero. Our results showed a higher diagnostic usefulness
and therapeutic success of ERCP with minimal risk and complications in pediatric patients.
