Long-term Outcomes of Therapeutic Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography for Choledocholithiasis in Patients ≥90 Years Old: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Abstract: Objective The safety and prognosis of complete stone removal for the treatment of choledocholithiasis in older patients are unknown. This multicenter retrospective study assessed the outcomes of complete stone removal in elderly patients (! 90 years) with respect to the prognosis. Methods We divided patients who underwent endoscopic cholangiopancreatography for choledocholithiasis into two groups: complete stone removal or incomplete stone removal with plastic stent insertion. The patient characteristics, adve… Show more

“…ERCP is often thought to be associated with more frequent adverse events (AEs) than other gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures (5). In recent years, ERCP has also been effective and safe in elderly patients ≥65 years of age (6,7). Complication rates and mortality rates in elderly patients were 6.7%-8.1% and 0%-0.2%, respectively (8)(9)(10)(11).…”

“…Some diseases did not show significant differences between the groups stratified by sex; however, there were significant intergroup differences according to age for all diseases, especially in the longevity group (age > 90 years). This age group is considered unique, and individuals of this age have been labelled 'super-seniors' (34,35). However, our findings could be attributed to differences in the sample size between the older inpatients with longevity and the other older groups, with the former group comprising less than half the number of individuals in the latter groups.…”
