Core Tip	Cannulation of the minor papilla into the duct of Santorini can be difficult to achieve by standard procedures because of the tiny minor papilla orifice. Although various methods have been advocated to facilitate the cannulation, some procedures still fail. The needle-knife has a slim tip, which is a unique advantage for insertion into the minor papilla orifice. After failure of standard cannulation techniques, we used three needle-knife procedures to facilitate cannulation via the minor papilla, which significantly improved the success rates of cannulation. In this series, we describe the meticulous procedures involved in this technique.
