However, no evidence exists on the outcomes of EBD for AC associated with DIC. Therefore, we retrospectively evaluated the treatment outcomes of early EBD and compared endoscopic biliary stenting (EBS) and endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD). We included 62 patients who received early EBD (EBS: 30, ENBD: 32) for AC, associated with DIC. The rates of clinical success for AC and DIC resolution at 7 days after EBD were 90.3% and 88.7%, respectively. Mean hospitalization period was 31.7 days, and in-hospital mortality rate was 4.8%. ERCP-related adverse events developed in 3.2% of patients (bleeding in two patients). Comparison between EBS and ENBD groups showed that the ENBD group included patients with more severe cholangitis, and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II score, systemic inflammatory response syndrome score, and serum bilirubin level were significantly higher in this group. However, no significant difference was observed in clinical outcomes between the two groups; both EBS and ENBD were effective. In conclusion, early EBD is effective and safe for patients with AC associated with DIC.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm10163606","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,16]],"date-time":"2021-08-16T21:27:45Z","timestamp":1629149265000},"page":"3606","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Clinical Outcomes of Early Endoscopic Transpapillary Biliary Drainage for Acute Cholangitis Associated with Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Akihiro","family":"Sekine","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0915-030X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kazunari","family":"Nakahara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0514-4452","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Junya","family":"Sato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yosuke","family":"Michikawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keigo","family":"Suetani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kawasaki Municipal Tama Hospital, Kawasaki 214-8525, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ryo","family":"Morita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, Morita Hospital, Sagamihara 252-0159, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yosuke","family":"Igarashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fumio","family":"Itoh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"6","DOI":"10.1016\/j.thromres.2009.08.017","article-title":"Expert consensus for the treatment of disseminated intravascular coagulation in Japan","volume":"125","author":"Wada","year":"2010","journal-title":"Thromb.
