Abstract:
Tonozuka and colleagues report the usefulness of a newly developed ultra-thin mother-baby type peroral cholangioscope with a tip external diameter of 2.3 mm for a case of biliary stricture in which conventional peroral cholangioscope insertion was challenging. The novel scope allows simple and low-cost peroral cholangioscopy, making it highly versatile.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.
