Pure Wire Guided Cannulation of the Bile Duct Using a Loop-tip Guidewire
Kapil Gupta, M.D. : 08 Dec 2009
In this video we will present two cases discussing the technique of bile duct access with pure wire guided cannulation using a loop tip guide wire. For pure wire guided cannulation, a sphincterotome is recommended. We should stay slightly away from the papilla so that papilla is clearly visualized and using the bow of sphincterotome the guide wire can be advanced in a cephalad direction over the.... view more....
