Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)

Background:

  • Common bile duct cannulation can be challenging during ERCP.
  • Precut papillotomy is a technique used to facilitate cannulation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the success rate and complications of needle knife precut papillotomy for common bile duct cannulation.

Main Methods:

  • A quasi-interventional study was conducted.
  • Data from 79 patients undergoing precut papillotomy during 347 ERCPs were analyzed.
  • Success and short-term complications were recorded.

Main Results:

  • The overall success rate for common bile duct cannulation using precut papillotomy was 91.14%.
  • Complications occurred in 10.1% of patients, including hemorrhage (6.3%) and pancreatitis (3.8%).

  • All complications were managed conservatively.

    • Conclusions:

    • Precut papillotomy is a safe and effective technique for challenging common bile duct cannulation.
    • The procedure's success is dependent on the endoscopist's expertise.
