Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is recessive and due to CF transmembrane conductance regulator gene mutations. CF transmembrane conductance regulator mutation heterozygotes (CF carriers [CFCs]) are predisposed to CF-associated conditions, including pancreatitis. Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) is a common adverse event after ERCP. Here we evaluate whether...
