Aims ERCP is performed with reusable duodenoscopes after manual and automated reprocessing. Recently, multidrug-resistant infection outbreaks associated with infected duodenoscopes have been reported. Our aim was to investigate the current Italian experience with duodenoscope-related infections and assess the criticality of the risk.

Aims Duodenoscope-related multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO) infections raise concerns. The introduction of disposable instruments onto the market has aroused interest, with excellent preliminary results. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of single-use duodenoscope in high complexity level ERCP.

Digestive and Liver Disease (2014)

Elisabetta Buscarini Raffaele Pezzilli Renato Cannizzaro Claudio De Angelis Massimo Gion

This report contains clinically oriented guidelines for the diagnostic work-up and follow-up of cystic pancreatic neoplasms in patients fit for treatment. The statements were elaborated by working groups of experts by searching and analysing the literature, and then underwent a consensus process using a modified Delphi procedure. The statements report recommendations regarding the most appropriate use and timing of various imaging techniques and of endoscopic ultrasound, the role of circulating and intracystic markers and the pathologic evaluation for the diagnosis and follow-up of cystic pancreatic neoplasms.
