Loop-tipped Guidewire in Selective Biliary Cannulation

January 4, 2016 updated by: Yoo Byung Moo, Ajou University School of Medicine

Loop-tipped Guidewire in Selective Biliary Cannulation: a Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial

  1. Background

    • Advanced guidewires with a U-shaped tip could effectively cross the long or multi-occlusive segment smoothly and go into the distal outflow vessel.
    • The guidewire looping technique is a safe and effective method for the recanalization of the occluded lesions in infrapopliteal vessels.
  2. Objective - To compare the performance a loop-tipped guidewire with a straight-tipped guidewire in achieving successful deep biliary cannulation.
  3. Design

    - Prospective randomized trial.

  4. Setting:

    - Tertiary-care medical center

  5. Patients

    - This study will involve 192 patients with biliary diseases which require endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

  6. Intervention - Cannulation of bile duct by using a loop-tipped guidewire or a straight-tipped guidewire
  7. Main outcome measurements - Compare the cannulation success rate, the duration of the cannulation, immediate and late complications.
