ABSTRACT
Aim:
to investigate the risk factors for PEP in patients with choledocholithiasis

Material and methods:
We have retrospectively analyzed 253 cases with choledocholithiasis that underwent ERCP. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of PEP. A number of potential risk factors for PEP were taken into account: gender, age (< 60 or ≥ 60 years); blood total bilirubin level (normal or increased); common bile duct size (≤10 or >10 mm); type of choledocholithiasis - microcholedocholithiasis, choledocholithiasis (1-2 stones), multiple choledocholithiasis (≥ 3 stones) and choledocholithiasis due to Mirizzi syndrome; periampullary diverticulum; papilla size (≤5 or >6 mm); ERCP success; selective biliary cannulation; pancreatic cannulation/injection; precut; papillotomy.

Results:
PEP was in 8 (3,2 %) cases. Univariate analysis identified two factors associated with PEP – common bile duct ≤10 mm (P=0.045) and papilla ≤5 mm (P=0.036). In multivariate analysis, among all variables only the common bile size ≤10 mm appeared to be significant (P=0.018).

Conclusions:
In patients with choledocholithiasis the occurrence of PEP is related to common bile duct size less than 10 mm.
