Single-operator cholangioscopy system for management of acute cholecystitis secondary to choledocholithiasis

This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) + EyeMax (single-operator cholangioscopy system; SOC) (i.e., ERCP+SOC) for the treatment of choledocholithasis-associated acute cholecystitis. Twenty-five patients were evaluated between January 2022 and June 2023. The success rate (technical + clinical), procedure time, postoperative recovery, postoperative length of hospital stay, and complications rates were recorded. The procedure and clinical success rates were 92% (23/25) and 96% (24/25), respectively. The mean procedure time was 36.6±10 minutes (standard deviation [SD]). The average postoperative hospitalization was 2±0.8 days. No adverse events such as bleeding, perforation, or bile leakage occurred. Cholecystitis did not recur during the 2 to 18 months of follow-up. ERCP+SOC may be a feasible, safe, and effective alternative treatment for acute cholecystitis secondary to choledocholithiasis. ERCP+SOC was able to simultaneously resolve both biliary tract and gallbladder problems via natural orifice endoscopy. Its advantages included no skin wound, reduced postoperative pain, quick recovery, limited to no exposure to x-rays, and a short hospital stay.
