DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2017.07.042
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Endoscopy has replaced many radiologic studies for the GI tract. However, ERCP remains a hybrid endoscopic-fluoroscopic procedure, which limits its portable delivery, creates delays because of fluoroscopy room unavailability, and exposes patients… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.vgie.2021.03.010
Abstract: Video Video 1 Percutaneous cholangioscopy was performed to confirm complete closure of the choledochojejunostomy. Percutaneous cholangioscopy revealed complete closure of the anastomosis. Our attempt to pass a guidewire through the anastomosis failed accordingly. read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/a-0667-7751
Abstract: Biliary recanalization is a vital procedure to restore postoperative bile duct obstruction. However, selective guidewire negotiation across the disconnected sites under fluorescence imaging is challenging. We present a case of formidable biliary disconnection after hepatectomy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/a-0962-9628
Abstract: Cholangioscopy-assisted guidewire placement is reported to be a useful method for endoscopic biliary drainage that is made difficult by complex strictures and obstructions [1–5]. However, the guidewire sometimes becomes misdirected because of the lack of… read more here.
