Predicting short-term mortality and long-term survival for hospitalized US patients with alcoholic hepatitis.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Periampullary diverticulum (PAD) is most often asymptomatically found in elderly population. ERCP in the presence of PAD is technically challenging since the location and orientation of the ampulla could be altered. Various studies have reported differing results on the technical success and safety outcome...
