COMPARISON OF ULTRASOUND WITH ENDOSCOPIC RETROGRADE CHOLANGIOPANCREATOGRAPHY AND SURGERY IN THE DETECTION OF SITE AND CAUSE BILE DUCTS DILATATION [PDF]

open access: yes
background and Objectives: Ultrasound (US) is the initial imaging test used in the evaluation of patients with biliary tract disease. Our retrospective study was designed to evaluate the capacity of ultrasound to determine the cause and site of bile ...

Intravenous bolus somatostatin after diagnostic cholangiopancreatography reduces the incidence of pancreatitis associated with therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedures: A randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: Previous studies suggested that somatostatin given before endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) may reduce the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis.

Optimal timing of precut sphincterotomy to prevent post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis in difficult biliary cannulation: A retrospective study

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Objectives Precut sphincterotomy is often performed when bile duct cannulation is difficult; however, the former has a higher risk of complications than conventional methods. Early precut reduces the risk of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP).

The effect of adding gentamicin to contrast media for prevention of cholangitis after biliary stenting for non-calculous biliary obstruction, a randomized controlled trial

open access: yes, 2013
Aim: Cholangitis is the most common infectious complication of ERCP. In vitro studies showed that addition of aminoglycosides to contrast medium was effective in reducing cholangitis but the results of clinical trials are conflicting.

Covered Self‐Expanding Metal Stents Versus Multiple Plastic Stents in Treating Biliary Strictures Post‐Orthotopic Liver Transplantation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Anastomotic biliary strictures are a common complication following orthotopic liver transplantation (post‐OLT), impacting morbidity and graft survival. This meta‐analysis evaluates the efficacy, safety, and cost‐effectiveness of covered self‐expanding metal stents (cSEMS) versus multiple plastic stents (MPS) for treating post‐OLT ...

Japanese Multi‐Institution Study of Success Rates of Wire‐Guided Biliary Cannulation During Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Relation to Guidewire tip Length (JMIT Study) (With Video)

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Wire‐guided cannulation (WGC) reportedly increases the successful biliary cannulation rate and reduces the risk of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis. Currently, various types of guidewires are available.

Hidden papilla and periampullary diverticulum: Curtain up for stacked folds

open access: yesJGH Open, 2019
Proper identification of the Vaterian papilla is a vital prerequisite for success in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Overall, a “hidden papilla” situation is uncommon, often attributable to, for example, intradiverticular localizations in

Analysis of Bile Colonization and Intestinal Flora may Improve Management in Liver Transplant Recipients Undergoing ERCP

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Immunosuppression, denervation of biliary tract, and presence of biliary strictures favor colonization of bile with microorganisms after liver transplantation. Little is known about spectrum and antibiotic susceptibility of this colonization.
