BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Although quality improvement is crucial for ERCP, a low practice volume can pose challenges to achieving high-quality bile duct cannulation. Transpancreatic precut sphincterotomy (TPS) has been proven effective for advanced cannulation. However, existing data mainly come from skilled endoscopists in large medical centers. The impact of TPS on ERCP quality in a lower-volume setting deserves investigation.
METHODS: Our hospital performs approximately 200 ERCPs annually, with 1 expert endoscopist performing approximately half of them and 3 nonexpert endoscopists sharing the remaining cases. TPS was started and became our predominant advanced cannulation technique in April 2016. We retrospectively reviewed ERCP cases 3 years before and after the introduction of TPS. The primary endpoints of the study were the differences in 2 ERCP quality indicators, the bile duct cannulation rate and the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP).
RESULTS: A total of 701 ERCP cases with naïve papilla were analyzed, with 350 patients treated before the introduction of TPS and 351 patients treated afterward. The successful cannulation rate was significantly improved (before, 87.4%; after, 92.3%, P = .032), whereas the incidence of PEP decreased, but not significantly (before, 4.0%; after, 2.8%; P = .402). All endoscopists benefited from using TPS, with nonexperts demonstrating a significantly higher improvement in the cannulation rate (before, 85.5%; after, 93.1%; P = .019).
CONCLUSIONS: TPS can effectively enhance the quality of ERCP irrespective of practice volume.
