NCT02916199

Brief Summary

The aim of this study are to evaluate the feasibility of needle knife fistulotomy (NKF) as an initial procedure for biliary access in patients with biliary disease who are at increased risk for post-endoscopic retrograde endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (PEP) and to assess the incidence rate of complications including PEP between NKF and conventional cannulation methods.

Needle knife fistulotomy

EXPERIMENTAL

Device: Needle knife fistulotomy Disease: Common bile duct stone, Malignant biliary stricture, Benign biliary stricture, Benign pancreatic disease, biliary sphincter of Oddi dysfunction Indication: High risk of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis \- Intervention: canulation of ampulla of Vater Intervention: canulation of ampulla of Vater

Device: cannulation of ampulla of Vater

conventional cannulation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Device: conventional canulation catheter Disease: Common bile duct stone, Malignant biliary stricture, Benign biliary stricture, Benign pancreatic disease, biliary sphincter of Oddi dysfunction Indication: High risk of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis \- Intervention: canulation of ampulla of Vater Intervention: canulation of ampulla of Vater

Device: cannulation of ampulla of Vater

Interventions

Cannulation of ampulla of Vater is a procedure that a guide-wire is passed through ampulla using interventional devices
