Bile duct battle: which backup technique works best?
NCT ID NCT06010576
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two advanced techniques used when doctors have trouble reaching the bile duct during a procedure called ERCP. About 188 adults with difficult bile duct access will be randomly assigned to either an endoscopic ultrasound-guided rendezvous technique or an early precut papillotomy. The goal is to see which method is more successful and has fewer complications within 30 days.
