Endosonographic finding of the simultaneous depiction of bile and pancreatic ducts can predict difficult biliary cannulation on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

Endosonographic finding of the simultaneous depiction of bile and pancreatic ducts can predict difficult biliary cannulation on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

Thus far, no curved linear array endoscopic ultrasound (CLAEUS) findings were established as predictors of difficult selective bile duct cannulation (SBDC). This study aimed to identify CLAEUS findings to predict endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) cases with difficult SBDC. This s...
