Results: A total of 10 ERCPs and five EUSs were performed in 13 pregnant @entity1 four of whom underwent the procedure in the first trimester, eight in the second trimester, and one in the third trimester. Indications for endoscopic therapy included @entity788 , @entity3883 with common bile duct (CBD) stone, asymptomatic CBD stone, pancreatic cyst, @entity2941 , and acute @entity2679 . Only one @entity1 had a complication, which was @entity12828 . Two @entity1 underwent an artificial abortion, one according to her own decision and the other due to an adverse drug reaction.
