Clinical evaluation of double-channel gastroscope for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with Billroth II gastrectomy

Abstract: AimTo evaluate the use of a double-channel gastroscope in patients with Billroth II gastrectomy to perform endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and interventions.Material and methodsFrom January 2008 to December 2013, 18 patients with Billroth II gastrectomy were enrolled in this study. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography was performed using a straight forward gastroscope with double working channel (4.2-mm diameter, 2.8-mm diameter).ResultsThe success rate of selective cannulation … Show more

“…In our study, the favorable results of forward-viewing gastroscope in comparison to the side-viewing duodenoscope can result from the fact that we used a therapeutic gastroscope with an extra-large channel associated sometimes with a transparent cap fitted to the distal end, facilitating not only afferent loop intubation and progression due to its flexibility and good visual field, but also deep cannulation due to its large working channel and use of cap. Recently, two retrospective cohorts of 18 and 46 patients with Billroth II gastrectomy that underwent ERCP using therapeutic double-channel gastroscope reported afferent loop intubation of 83% and papilla cannulation of 100% [ 20 , 21 ].…”

“…Indeed, the non-statistically significant lower adverse events rate with the forward-viewing gastroscope may traduce the small sample size. However, the majority of the studies published to date have smaller sample sizes [ 7 , 8 , 10 , 11 , 19 , 20 , 21 ]. Moreover, this study was performed in a tertiary referral center with expertise in ERCP, which could have positively impacted the results, stressing the need to refer these patients to expert centers.…”

“…Recently, the advent of new types of endoscopes, such as a dual lumen or multiple bending endoscope, has allowed successful afferent loop intubation and selective cannulation[10,28]. The use of dual lumen endoscope has potential advantage that the cooperation of two instruments through different channels can facilitate papillary cannulation in cases with difficult anatomy such as periampullary diverticulum and surgical altered anatomy.…”

“…The use of dual lumen endoscope has potential advantage that the cooperation of two instruments through different channels can facilitate papillary cannulation in cases with difficult anatomy such as periampullary diverticulum and surgical altered anatomy. Unfortunately, the success rate of these procedures is not significantly higher than that of conventional side-viewing endoscopy, easily available forward-viewing endoscopy or standard colonoscopy (dual lumen endoscope, 82.8%; multiple bending endoscope, 92.9% vs conventional side-viewing endoscopy, 93.8%-97.5%; forward-viewing endoscopy, 95.4%; standard colonoscopy, 96.2%)[9,10,17-19,28,29]. Until now, there has been no large-scale retrospective cohort study or prospective comparative study.…”
