Core Tip Early precut (EP) is a safe and effective alternative to conventional advanced cannulation techniques for difficult bile duct cannulation. This retrospective study demonstrates that EP significantly increases second-line cannulation success rates, shortens procedure time, and reduces complications, particularly in cases with prominent oral protrusion. These findings support EP as a first-line advanced cannulation technique after standard cannulation techniques fail in selected high-risk cases. This advocates for a strategic shift in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography practice.
