“…The specific techniques to be use in this type of management, with regard to issues such as whether dilation should be carried out with or without stenting, as well as the duration of stenting, are not yet fully clear and are at present decided on a largely individualized basis in relation to the pa− tient's characteristics and the physician's preferences. Investiga− tors at the University of San Francisco report their long−term ex− perience with aggressive endoscopic management of a cohort of patients with PSC awaiting OLT [11]. The mean Mayo End−Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score decreased by 3.4 points by the end of the follow−up period in patients undergoing serial ERCP (P = 0.0588).…”

Autoren der Universität San Francisco berichten über Langzeiterfahrungen mit einem aggressiven Vorgehen bei einer Patientengruppe, die auf eine Lebertransplantation wartete [18]. Der mittlere Mayo End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) Score nahm um 3,4 Punkte bis zum Ende der Follow-up-Periode bei Patienten ab, die sich regelmäßigen ERCP Kontrollen unterzogen.…”
