  • Title: [Surgery in pregnancy from an endoscopy viewpoint].
    Author: Soehendra N.
    Journal: Langenbecks Arch Chir; 1981; 355():229-31. PubMed ID: 7339355.
    Abstract:
    Gastrointestinal endoscopy with flexible instruments is also a suitable method for pregnant women. Pregnancy is generally not a contraindication for use of the endoscopy, and additional special preparations are usually not necessary. In cases with unclear upper abdominal pain the esophagogastro-duodenoscopy with thin instruments is more suitable than X-ray examination. An indication for the coloscopy can occur in patients with relapsing peranal hemorrhage or diarrhea. For obstructive jaundice ERCP with PTC is the diagnostic method of choice.
