By Jonas Wilson, Ing. Med. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a medical technique that is used primarily to investigate and treat pathologies involving the biliary tree and pancreatic ducts. Indications for ERCP include gallstones, tumors, defective sphincters, sclerosis of ducts and pseudocysts, which are accumulations of fluid and tissue components. ERCP has been traditionally used for diagnostic purposes. However, with the advent of safer and less invasive advances in

activates the pancreatic enzymes in the pancreas rather than in the intestine which may be due to reflux of bile acids into the pancreatic duct through an open or distended sphincter of Oddi. The result may also be caused by blockage created by a gallstone. Obstruction of pancreatic ducts results in pancreatic ischemia.The pathophysiology involvement of acute pancreatitis is
