🌟 ERCP for Choledocholithiasis – Precision. Expertise. Results. 🌟
A 32-year-old female presented with 2 weeks history of upper abdominal pain.
No jaundice.
Normal bilirubin.
Mildly elevated ALP & GGT.
Ultrasound abdomen and MRCP revealed distal CBD stones with normal caliber Common Bile Duct.
🔎 Procedure Details:
• Selective CBD cannulation achieved in first attempt
• Contrast study showed two filling defects in distal CBD
• Normal proximal CBD
• Endoscopic sphincterotomy performed
• Balloon sweeps resulted in evacuation of three stones
• Free flow of bile achieved
• Occlusion cholangiogram confirmed complete duct clearance
✅ Successful ERCP without complications
✅ No residual stones
✅ Immediate biliary drainage restored
Even in the absence of jaundice, CBD stones can cause significant pain and complications. Early diagnosis and timely ERCP prevent pancreatitis, cholangitis, and long-term biliary damage.
If you or your patient has:
✔ Recurrent upper abdominal pain
✔ Abnormal liver enzymes
✔ Suspected CBD stones on imaging
Timely intervention is crucial.

ہیپاٹائٹس B اور C کے مریضوں کے لیے ایک نہایت اہم پیغام
ہیپاٹائٹس B اور C کے مریضوں میں جگر کی خرابی (Cirrhosis) کی وجہ سے غذائی نالی (Esophagus) میں خطرناک رگیں پھول جاتی ہیں جنہیں
Esophageal Varices کہتے ہیں۔
یہ رگیں کسی بھی وقت پھٹ سکتی ہیں اور
اچانک شدید خون کی الٹی، بے ہوشی اور جان کو خطرہ ہو سکتا ہے۔
لیکن خوشخبری یہ ہے کہ
اینڈوسکوپی کے ذریعے بینڈ لیگیشن (Band Ligation)
اس خطرے کو بروقت ختم کیا جا سکتا ہے۔
Band Ligation کیا ہے؟
اینڈوسکوپی کے ذریعے ان پھولی ہوئی رگوں پر چھوٹے ربڑ بینڈ لگا کر
انہیں بند کر دیا جاتا ہے تاکہ وہ پھٹ نہ سکیں اور خون بہنے سے بچاؤ ہو جائے۔
✔ بغیر کسی آپریشن
✔ چند منٹ کا محفوظ طریقہ
✔ مریض اسی دن گھر جا سکتا ہے
✔ جان بچانے والا علاج
کن مریضوں کو کروانا چاہیے؟
اگر آپ کو
ہیپاٹائٹس B یا C ہے
جگر میں سروسس (Cirrhosis) ہے
الٹی میں خون آیا ہے یا
ڈاکٹر نے Varices بتائی ہیں
تو Band Ligation کروانا زندگی بچانے کے مترادف ہے۔
یاد رکھیں
جگر کے مریض میں خون کی الٹی کو کبھی معمولی نہ سمجھیں۔
بروقت اینڈوسکوپی جان بچا سکتی ہے۔

✨ کامیاب ڈوئل پروسیجر: ERCP + لیپروسکوپک کولی سسٹیکٹومی ✨

مریض شدید پیٹ درد اور بائل ڈکٹ میں رکاوٹ کے ساتھ پیش ہوا، جس کی وجہ سے لیور فنکشن ٹیسٹ بھی متاثر تھے۔

🔍 سب سے پہلے ERCP کیا گیا جس میں:
✔️ کامیاب سیلیکٹو CBD کینو لی شن
✔️ بائل ڈکٹ میں موجود رکاوٹ/پتھر کا مکمل اخراج
✔️ بائل فلو کی بحالی

🩺 اس کے فوراً بعد لیپروسکوپک کولی سسٹیکٹومی کی گئی جس سے:
✔️ خراب گل بلیڈر کا مکمل خاتمہ
✔️ دوبارہ پتھر بننے کا خطرہ کم
✔️ تیز ریکوری اور کم اسکار

💡 ایک ہی سیشن میں دونوں پروسیجر کرنے سے فائدے:

صرف ایک ہسپتال داخلہ

علامات کی فوری بہتری

پیچیدگیوں کا کم امکان

جلدی نارمل زندگی کی طرف واپسی

📸 اینڈوسکوپی کی تصاویر کامیاب ERCP نتائج ظاہر کرتی ہیں۔

Successful Emergency Management of Upper GI Bleed

A 62-year-old patient with known ischemic heart disease presented with fresh hematemesis, resulting in a severe drop in hemoglobin to 4 g/dl.

Urgent upper GI endoscopy revealed a large longitudinal ulcer located at the esophagogastric junction, a technically challenging area, with active oozing of blood. A visible vessel was identified at the lower end of the ulcer.

Mechanical hemostasis was achieved using a hemoclip, followed by heater probe coagulation at 35 Joules. Complete hemostasis was confirmed at the end of the procedure.

The patient received blood transfusions, responded well to treatment, and was discharged safely. Cardiology follow-up was advised for further management of antiplatelet therapy.
