CHENU, Martín et al. Acute pancreatitis and retroperitoneal perforation after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography: case report. Cir. parag. [online]. 2025, vol.49, n.1, pp.20-23. ISSN 2307-0420.  https://doi.org/10.18004/sopaci.2025.abril.20.

A 54-year-old patient underwent ERCP for choledocholithiasis and developed severe acute biliary pancreatitis and a type II retroperitoneal perforation. Diagnosis was confirmed by imaging and managed with percutaneous drainage and conservative treatment, with good clinical evolution. This case highlights the importance of early recognition of serious ERCP complications and the success of non-surgical management.
