Introduction Malignancies during childhood constitute the 2nd cause of death, following injuries worldwide. According to epidemiological data, 300,000 new cases of neoplasia present themselves every year in children and teenagers under 19 years of age1, 160,000 of which concern children under the

BACKGROUND Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory pancreatic process, presents different severity degrees [1]. Over the last two decades, there has been a paradigm shift in the management, from surgical to "step up" approach using percutaneous or endoscopic catheter drainage followed by

Acute pancreatitis is an acute inflammatory disease of the pancreas characterized by the sudden onset of abdominal pain, elevated serum amylase, and edema or necrosis of the pancreas. The clinical course of AP is generally mild; however, nearly 25% of patients progress into severe AP which consists

This is prospective, randomized, controlled, multicentre trial. Patients with mild and moderate acute pancreatitis (AP) will be randomly in two groups: group A: with early oral refeeding (EOR) with low fat solid diet (LFSD), started from the first day of admission in the hospital, and group B: with

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a commonly performed endoscopic procedure used to treat pancreato-biliary pathology. Acute pancreatitis is the most common major complication of (ERCP)[1] which is reported to occur in 2-10% of patients overall (ranging from 2-4% in low risk

Patients with high risk factors for PEP who will be examined and diagnosed by ERCP at 2018.06-2019.12 in the First People's Hospital of Hangzhou are randomly divided into two groups. 2. Record the relevant indicators of each group of patients: 1 before and after surgery 3, 12, 24 h serum amylase

RFA causes tissue destruction through the application of a high frequency alternating current, generating local temperatures above 60°C and leading to coagulative necrosis. The technique has been widely used in many solid organ tumours and has been shown to result in 5-year survival rates comparable

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is rapid-onset inflammation of the pancreas that varies in severity from a self-limiting mild illness to rapidly progressive multiple organ failure. Statistics suggest that 10-20% of patients with AP develop severe AP (SAP),1 which usually has an unfavourable disease

Cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic cancer are by far the two most common causes of malignant bile duct obstruction. Cholangiocarcinoma is an adenocarcinoma originating in the bile duct whereas pancreatic cancer is an adenocarcinoma derived from pancreatic ductal cells. The incidence rates of both

Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) is the most common, serious complication of ERCP. More than 500,000 ERCP procedures are performed from which 25,000 cases of PEP occur in the U.S.A. annually. PEP accounts for significant morbidity and health care
