Endoscopic evaluation of factors contributing to intrapancreatic biliary stricture in autoimmune pancreatitis

“…Intrapancreatic biliary stricture is sometimes (3%-29%) observed in chronic pancreatitis, [15][16][17] but, as far as we know, such stricture has not been classified as SC. We had thought that pancreatic edema and fibrosis caused intrapancreatic biliary stricture in both chronic pancreatitis and AIP, and its higher frequency in AIP was mainly because of severe edema.…”

Chronic pancreatitis, pseudotumors and other tumor-like lesions

“…Persistent stenosis of the bile duct develops in approximately 10% of the cases, 48 duodenal stenosis in about 3%. 29 These complications are either due to intensive scarring or to the development of a pseudocyst in the head of the pancreas.…”

Chronic pancreatitis. Multicentre prospective data collection and analysis by the Hungarian Pancreatic Study Group

“…In stage B of chronic pancreatitis, development of common bile duct stricture (CBS) is expected in 3-46% of cases [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40]; in our cohort, 11% of the patients suffered from jaundice.…”
