Abstract

The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the results and the complications at a tertiary referral center which frequently uses precutting techniques for biliary cannulation. Four hundred seventy patients with naive papilla for whom biliary intervention was planned were included in the study. If the selective cannulation was not achieved after a few trials, precutting sphincterotomy was performed. The results were evaluated for the frequency, success, and complication rates of precutting. Precutting was performed on 238 (50.6%; 117 male, 121 female; mean age, 58.5±16.2 years) of 470 patients. Total success rate of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) was 99.2% (236/238). The rate of complications in patients with versus without precutting was 7 (2.9%) versus 3 (1.3%) for pancreatitis, 2 (0.8%) versus 1 (0.4%) for perforation, and 7 (2.9%) versus 3 (1.3%) for bleeding. The differences between the rates were not significant. Early precutting can be preferable in prolonged cannulation trials of therapeutic ERCP.
