About

Common bile duct stone cholangitis is a potentially fatal condition, characterized by an obstruction and bacterial infection of biliary system. The principles of management are appropriate biliary drainage and systemic antibiotics. There has been limited data about appropriate time of antibiotics in patient with successful endoscopic drainage.

Full description

The aim is comparing the efficacy and safety between short duration and standard fourteen days antibiotic treatment in patients with acute common bile duct stone (CBDS) cholangitis after successful endoscopic biliary drainage as regards recurrence rate of acute cholangitis, complete stone clearance rate, morbidity and mortality associated acute cholangitis, and complications related ERCP procedure.

The study will be divided patients with acute CBDS cholangitis with complete stone clearance into 2 groups, group (A) will be received intravenous antibiotic until the temperature is less than 37.8 c for 72 hours and group (B) will be received intravenous antibiotic for 7 days, followed by oral antibiotic for 7 days, regardless of the body temperature.
