Abstract
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the primary therapeutic procedure for pancreaticobiliary disorders, and studies highlighted the impact of papilla anatomy on its efficacy and safety. Our objective was to quantify the influence of papilla morphology on ERCP outcomes. We systematically searched three medical databases in September 2022, focusing on studies detailing the cannulation process or the rate of adverse events in the context of papilla morphology. The Haraldsson classification served as the primary system for papilla morphology, and a pooled event rate with a 95% confidence interval was calculated as the effect size measure. Out of 17 eligible studies, 14 were included in the quantitative synthesis. In studies using the Haraldsson classification, the rate of difficult cannulation was the lowest in type I papilla (26%), while the highest one was observed in the case of type IV papilla (41%). For post-ERCP pancreatitis, the event rate was the highest in type II papilla (11%) and the lowest in type I and III papilla (6-6%). No significant difference was observed in the cannulation failure and post-ERCP bleeding event rates between the papilla types. In conclusion, certain papilla morphologies are associated with a higher rate of difficult cannulation and post-ERCP pancreatitis.

Başpinar B, Ödemiş B, Erdoğan Ç, Yüksel M. Suprapapillary Needle Knife Fistulotomy Versus Conventional Precut Sphincterotomy in Difficult Biliary Cannulation: A Retrospective Comparative Study. Surg Laparosc Endosc Percutan Tech 2022; 32:700-706. [PMID: 36375111 DOI: 10.1097/sle.0000000000001123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an important therapeutic tool for many biliary diseases. Selective biliary cannulation is the first step of the treatment process. Needle knife fistulotomy (NKF) and conventional precut sphincterotomy (CPS) are widely used in difficult biliary cannulation. However, there are different results in their effectiveness and safety. This study aimed to compare both methods regarding cannulation success and adverse event profile. MATERIALS AND METHODS All eligible consecutive patients with naive papillae who underwent biliary ERCP by a single experienced endoscopist over a 3-year period were included retrospectively. The standard cannulation method with a guidewire-loaded sphincterotome was initially used for biliary cannulation in all patients. Cannulation was accepted as difficult in the case of failure of standard cannulation within 5 minutes or despite 5 attempts or insertion of the guidewire to the pancreatic duct 5 times. Three modalities in patients with difficult biliary cannulation were employed according to the structure and configuration of the papillae in addition to unintentional pancreatic cannulation: (1) NKF, (2) CPS, (3) Double guidewire technique or guidewire orientation/precut following pancreatic stenting. Latter was excluded to enable direct comparison between NKF and CPS groups. RESULTS A total of 644 patients were recruited. Analyses were performed with 541 patients after the exclusion of 103 patients. Mean (SD) age was 60.4 (18.2) years, and 257 (47.5%) patients were male. While standard cannulation was successful in 366 (67.6%), difficult biliary cannulation was observed in 175 (32.4%) patients. NKF was performed in 101 (57.7%) patients, and cannulation success was 100% in the first ERCP session. In contrast, CPS was performed in 74 (42.3%) patients with a lower cannulation success rate (79.7%) than NKF ( P <0.001). Post-ERCP pancreatitis rate was higher in CPS (9.5%) than NKF group (3.0%, P =0.063). Bleeding and cholangitis were similar in both groups. CONCLUSIONS In patients with difficult biliary cannulation with appropriate papillary structure and configuration, NKF should be used as the first choice in experienced hands because of high biliary cannulation success and low Post-ERCP pancreatitis risk.

Predictive factors of needle-knife pre-cut papillotomy failure in patients with difficult biliary cannulation. Sci Rep 2022; 12:4942. [PMID: 35322178 PMCID: PMC8943021 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-09117-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Predictors of needle-knife pre-cut papillotomy (NKP) failure for patients with difficult biliary cannulation has not been reported. Between 2004 and 2016, 390 patients with difficult biliary cannulation undergoing NKP were included in this single-center study. Following NKP, deep biliary cannulation failed in 95 patients (24.4%, NKP-failure group) and succeeded in 295 patients (75.6%, NKP-success group). Patient and technique factors were used to identify the predictors of initial NKP failure. Compared with the NKP-success group, periampullary diverticulum (28.4% vs. 18%, p = 0.028), surgically altered anatomy (13.7% vs. 7.1%, p = 0.049), number of cases performed by less experienced endoscopists, and bleeding during NKP (38.9% vs. 3.4%, p < 0.001), were significantly more frequent in the NKP-failure group. On multivariate analysis, surgically altered anatomy (OR 2.374, p = 0.045), endoscopists’ experience (OR 3.593, p = 0.001), and bleeding during NKP (OR 21.18, p < 0.001) were significantly associated with initial failure of NKP. In conclusion, NKP is a highly technique-sensitive procedure, as endoscopists’ experience, bleeding during NKP, and surgically altered anatomy were predictors of initial NKP failure.
