ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate risk factors decreasing cannulation success rate of trainees receiving hands-on ERCP training and to improve thelevel of ERCP training.Methods Clinical data of 1 193 ERCP cases involved in training in Xijing Hospital of Digestive Disease from December 2012 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the risk factors influencing cannulation success rate of trainees.Results There were 1 165 and 28 patients undergoing common biliary duct (CBD) cannulation and pancreatic duct(PD) cannulation respectively.The success rate of CBD cannulation by trainees was 58.5％(681/1 165)and the overall success rate was 97.9％(1 140/1 165).PD cannulation success rate by trainees was 39.3％ (11/28) and the overall success rate was 89.3％ (25/28).The overall complication incidence was 8.0％ (96/1 193)and the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis was 4.4％(53/1 193).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the selective cannulation by trainees was more likely to fail in patients with malignant biliary stricture(OR =0.44,95％CI:0.28-0.67,P＜0.01),benign or undetermined biliary stricture(OR =0.32,95％ CI:0.17-0.60,P＜ 0.01),suspected sphincter of Oddi dysfunction(SOD) (OR =0.28,95％ CI:0.16-0.47,P＜ 0.01),coexisting hypertension (OR =0.65,95 ％ CI:0.44-0.96,P＜0.05),RDW ≥ 48 fL (OR =0.69,95％ CI:0.51-0.92,P＜ 0.05),PLT＜ 100 × 109/L (OR=1.68,95％CI:1.05-2.71,P＜0.05).Conclusion Biliary stricture,suspected sphincter of Oddi dysfunction,coexisting hypertension,abnormal RDW and PLT were independent risk factors influencing cannulation success rate by trainees during hands-on ERCP training.
ABSTRACT
Selective cannulation into the intrahepatic duct during ERCP can occasionally be difficult and time-consuming depending on the GI tract anatomy and the presence of biliary tree anomalies or pathology. A variety of techniques or devices have been used to enhance the success rate of selective cannulation in these situations. The balloon occluded method for selective cannulation of the LHD (left hepatic duct) with using an inflated balloon catheter to occlude the RHD (right hepatic duct) has also been reported. We report here a case of successful selective cannulation of the RHD with using an inflated balloon catheter to occlude the LHD in a patient who had a GB cancer with liver metastasis. After this maneuver, a guidewire is advanced; it deflects off the inflated balloon and then proceeds to the RHD.

During endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), cannulation is more difficult in patients with anatomical variations, ampullary stenosis, impacted stone in the papilla, papillary cancer, peripapillary diverticulum, postoperative states such as those after Billroth II or Braun operations. In patients with peripapillary diverticulum, the position of the papilla can be modified by the presence of the diverticulum, rendering the cannu-lation more difficult. In this situation, the success rate of ERCP is lower than that in nor-mal situation. We have, therefore, used a new technique with the application of grasp forceps to expose the duodenal papilla properly during ERCP in a patient whose papilla was located on the edge of a large duodenal diverticulum and the papillary orifice was hidden behind the edge of the diverticulum.
