S1080 Utilization of Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in a Nationwide Cohort of Patients Admitted With Acute Biliary Pancreatitis With Cholangitis
Abstract:Following propensity matching, there were no differences in baseline characteristics between patients who underwent ESG with a gastroenterologist or bariatric surgeon.
