Overview

Secondary prevention strategies for cholangitis includes continued treatment of predisposing causes in appropriate patients to prevent the recurrence of cholangitis.

Secondary Prevention

Secondary prevention strategies for cholangitis include continued treatment of predisposing causes in appropriate patients to avoid the recurrence of cholangitis :

  • Infection due to instrumentation of biliary tract:[1][2][3]
    • Appropriate antibiotics
    • Biliary drainage
  • Cholangitis due to gallstones/cholelithiasis:[4][5][6]
    • Initially endoscopic papilotomy/sphincterotomy should be done for biliary drainage and stone removal.
    • Laparoscopic cholecystectomy should be followed thereafter as doing cholecystectomy alone would not prevent recurrence of cholangitis.
