UGI Endoscopy with ERCP is a combined advanced diagnostic and therapeutic procedure that allows detailed examination and treatment of the upper digestive tract, bile ducts, and pancreas. Dr. Sarang Mahanaik, an expert gastroenterologist in Indore, provides this specialized service to effectively diagnose and manage complex gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary conditions.
Upper Gastrointestinal (UGI) Endoscopy involves using a flexible endoscope to examine the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. When combined with Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), this procedure extends to include the bile and pancreatic ducts by injecting a contrast dye and using X-ray imaging.
This combined approach enables not only detailed visualization but also allows therapeutic interventions such as stone removal, stenting, and biopsy without the need for invasive surgery.
Common indications for this combined procedure include:
Persistent upper abdominal pain or jaundice
Suspected bile duct or pancreatic duct stones
Bile duct strictures or blockages
Pancreatitis related to duct obstruction
Unexplained digestive symptoms requiring thorough evaluation
Screening and treatment of bile duct and pancreatic tumors
