28. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: General Principles

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has emerged as the preferred option when direct visualization of the ampulla and direct access to the distal common bile duct are desired. This chapter describes facilities, equipment, and techniques for successful performance of ERCP in the patient with surgically unaltered gastroduodenal anatomy.

This chapter was contributed by Harry S. Himal, M.D. in the previous edition.
