SpyGlass™ Discover Percutaneous

November 27, 2023 updated by: Boston Scientific Corporation

Flexible Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiopancreatoscopy (PTCS) in Complex Pancreaticobiliary Disease

To document the clinical utility of percutaneous cholangiopancreatoscopy using a thin, disposable, flexible endoscope for evaluation and treatment of complex pancreaticobiliary disease in a prospective, multi-center case series

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This case series aims to illustrate the clinical utility of percutaneous transhepatic cholangiopancreatoscopy using a thin, disposable, flexible endoscope performed by gastroenterological endoscopists and/or interventional radiologists in procedures including but not limited to:

  • PTCS for tissue diagnosis in cases of surgically or pathologically-altered anatomy,
  • PTCS for stone removal after surgically or pathologically-altered anatomy,
  • Percutaneous rendezvous to aid ERCP after failed endoscopic cannulation,
  • Percutaneous delivery of palliative intraluminal brachytherapy,
  • Intra-procedural percutaneous salvage procedures when an initial route of access fails
