Published in 2021 at "Clinical endoscopy"

DOI: 10.5946/ce.2021.153

Abstract: Background/Aims Difficult biliary cannulation is an important risk factor for post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP). Therefore, this study aimed to identify the factors that predict difficult cannulation for common bile duct stones (CBDS) to… read more here.
