Abstract Abstract Background Fetomaternal outcomes are of primary concern for gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy in pregnancy. We aimed to systematically review the safety and utility of endoscopic procedures in pregnancy. Methods A systematic literature search was performed using PubMed. All original research articles with sample size > 10 involving endoscopy in pregnancy were included for the review along with case report/series describing novel/rare techniques from 1948 to July 2021. Results After screening 12,197 references, 216 citations were found and finally 66 references were included. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy had favorable fetal outcome (>95%) based on two large retrospective studies and a review of case reports. Sclerotherapy and band ligation of varices were safe according to case series. A large nationwide cohort study established safety of endotherapy for nonvariceal bleed. Botulinum toxin and pneumatic dilation in achalasia are only supported by case reports. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy can be useful to support nutrition based on case reports. A retrospective case–control and cohort study with systemic review justified flexible sigmoidoscopy if strongly indicated. Low birth weight was more common when sigmoidoscopy was done in inflammatory bowel disease based on a prospective study. Colonoscopy was considered safe in second trimester based on a case–control study whereas it can be performed otherwise only in presence of strong indication like malignancy. Capsule endoscopy is promising and can be useful in acute small bowel bleeding although risk of capsule retention is unknown. There are no reports of enteroscopy in pregnancy. Twelve retrospective studies and one prospective study showed high success rate of therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) (> 90%) in all trimesters and can be performed if strongly indicated. Pregnancy was an independent risk factor for post-ERCP pancreatitis in a large nationwide case–control study. Radiation-free ERCP with wire-guided bile observation, stent-guided or precut sphincterotomy, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance, and spyscopy have been described. Safety of EUS is limited to case series and can be used in intermediate probability of choledocholithiasis to guide ERCP and endoscopic cystogastrostomy. Conclusion This review concludes that GI endoscopy during pregnancy can be done effectively if strongly indicated with good fetomaternal outcomes. Precautions are advocated during procedures where radiation exposure is expected. Collapse

Abstract

BACKGROUND/AIMS

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a technically challenging procedure rarely associated with severe postprocedure complications. Hormonal changes during pregnancy promote cholelithiasis, but there are limited clinical data available on the outcomes of ERCP in pregnant women. ERCP techniques without irradiation were recently introduced as potential alternative. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the safety of ERCP in pregnancy and to compare outcomes of radiation versus nonradiation ERCP.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

A systematic search of PubMed, Medline/Ovid, Web of Science, and Google Scholar through April 18^th, 2018 using PRISMA and MOOSE guidelines identified 27 studies reporting the outcomes of ERCP in pregnancy. Random effects pooled event rate and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated. Heterogeneity was measured by I², and meta-regression analysis was conducted. Adverse outcomes were divided into fetal, maternal pregnancy-related, and maternal nonpregnancy-related.

RESULTS

In all, 27 studies reporting on 1,307 pregnant patients who underwent ERCP were identified. Median age was 27.1 years. All results were statistically significant (P < 0.01). The pooled event rate for overall adverse outcomes was 15.9% (95% CI = 0.132-0.191) in all studies combined, 17.6% (95% CI = 0.109-0.272) in nonradiation ERCP (NR-ERCP) subgroup and 21.6% (95% CI = 0.154-0.294) in radiation ERCP subgroup. There was no significant difference in the pooled event rate for fetal adverse outcomes in NR-ERCP 6.2% (95% CI = 0.027-0.137) versus 5.2% (95% CI = 0.026-0.101) in radiation ERCP group. There was no significant difference in maternal pregnancy-related adverse outcome event rate between NR-ERCP (8.4%) (95% CI = 0.038-0.173) and radiation ERCP (7.1%) (95% CI = 0.039-0.125). Maternal nonpregnancy-related adverse outcome event rate in NR-ERCP was 7.6% (95% CI = 0.038-0.145), which was half the event rate in radiation ERCP group of 14.9% (95% CI = 0.102-0.211).

CONCLUSIONS

ERCP done by experienced endoscopists is a safe procedure during pregnancy. Radiation-free techniques appear to reduce the rates of nonpregnancy-related complications, but not of fetal and pregnancy-related complications.

Abstract

AIM: To estimate the fetal radiation exposure using thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD’s) in pregnant patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and assess its relevance.

METHODS: Data on thirty-five therapeutic ERCPs conducted in pregnant patients from 2001 to 2009 were retrieved from a prospective database. Techniques to minimize fluoroscopy time were implemented and the fluoroscopy times captured. TLD’s were placed on the mother to estimate the fetal radiation exposure and the results were compared to the maximum allowed dose of radiation to the fetus [0.005 gray (Gy)]. Obstetrics consultations were obtained and the fetus was monitored before and after the ERCP. Fluoroscopy was performed at 75 kVp. ERCP was performed with the patients supine by dedicated biliary endoscopists performing more than 500 cases a year.

RESULTS: A total of 35 pregnant patients underwent ERCP and biliary sphincterotomy (14 in first trimester, 11 in second trimester, and 10 in third trimester). Mean maternal age was 25 years (range 16-37 years) and mean gestational age was 18.9 wk (range 4-35 wk). Mean fluoroscopy time was 0.15 min (range 0-1 min). For 23 women, the estimated fetal radiation exposure was almost negligible (< 0.0001 Gy) while for 8 women, it was within the 0.0001-0.0002 Gy range. Three women had an estimated fetal radiation exposure between 0.0002 and 0.0005 Gy and 1 woman had an estimated fetal radiation exposure greater than 0.0005 Gy. Complications included 2 post-sphincterotomy bleeds, 2 post-ERCP pancreatitis, and 1 fatal acute respiratory distress syndrome. One patient developed cholecystitis 2 d after ERCP.

CONCLUSION: ERCP with modified techniques is safe during pregnancy, and estimating the fetal radiation exposure from the fluoroscopy time or measuring it via TLD’s is unnecessary.
