Summary

The purpose of this study is to prospectively compare the efficacy of endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary interventions (EUS-rendezvous or direct EUS-guided therapy) to that of advanced ERCP cannulation techniques in the setting of difficult cannulation. We hypothesize that EUS-guided interventions will be more successful and may be associated with the same complications as using advanced ERCP techniques in cases of difficult bile duct access.
