6 Cholangitis - Clinical Presentation Cholangitis Charcot s triad present in 50-70% of patients RUQ pain, jaundice, fever and chills Most (>90%) have fever, RUQ pain, and jaundice (50-70%) Leukocytosis common - parallels endotoxemia Elevated bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase Should be considered in any patient with jaundice, fever and abdominal pain, especially when gallstones are present Bacterial Detachment from Biofilm and Cholangiovenous Reflux Bacteremia Cholangitis Pathophysiology Cholangiovenous reflux of bacteria (and endotoxin) from the biliary tree into the systemic circulation Requires bacteria in bile and elevated biliary pressure (> 20 cm H 2 0) Source of bacteria is bacterial-laden gallstones in the biliary tree Bactibilia 6

8 Gallstone Pancreatitis Patients with (predicted) severe biliary pancreatitis should undergo ERCP with sphincterotomy and stone extraction within 72 hours Including cases with signs of ongoing biliary obstruction and cholangitis Mild Pancreatitis should be treated with surgery once the inflammatory illness has resolved (within 2 weeks) Cholangitis ERCP / sphincterotomy is the primary treatment for cholangitis due to CBD stones These patients require immediate resuscitation with IV fluids and antibiotics For patients who do not improve promptly, ERCP / sphincterotomy / duct drainage is indicated ASAP For patients who improve, urgent (within 24 hours) ERCP / sphincterotomy is indicated PTC drainage can be used as an alternative to ERCP but open surgery should be avoided NIH Consens State Sci Statements Jan 14-16;19(1):1-26.
