Acute pancreatitis following oesophagogastroduodenoscopy.

Abstract: Acute pancreatitis is a well-recognised complication of endoscopic procedures like endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography but not oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD). I report a case of a 33-year-old woman, admitted with severe epigastric pain and vomiting 2 hours after an elective OGD for evaluation of chronic gastrointestinal symptoms. Pancreatitis was diagnosed on the basis of elevated lipase (40 790 U/L; normal 11-82) and findings on imaging studies. Other common causes of acute pancreatitis such as … Show more

“…Pancreatitis post gastroscopy is not a well-documented side effect [6][7][8]. In addition to this case there are only five documented cases of pancreatitis post gastroscopy without ampullary cannulation [3,[5][6][7][8] and only three cases post colonoscopy [7,9,10].…”

“…Also, administration of L-arginine augmented the MPO activity to 8 folds as compared to the control group, while administration of mito-TEMPO caused a significant drop in MPO by 87% as compared to the L-arginine group. This is exemplified in the table (2).…”

“…Moreover, L-arginine injection caused a notable significant rise in NOx content which was 39% as compared to the control group, while, administration of mito-TEMPO diminished the NOx content significantly by 40% as compared to the L-arginine group. This is illustrated in the table (2). In addition, injection of L-arginine produced a high increment in MDA content that was 48% as compared to the control group, however, administration of mito-TEMPO caused a prominent decline in MDA content that was 33% as compared to the l-arginine group.…”
