Core Tip |
Cholangioscopy has been described in case reports and series to facilitate guidewire placement in difficult benign biliary strictures, especially in the setting of liver transplants. Most biliary strictures are successfully traversed with standard techniques utilizing hydrophilic guidewires during ERCP, but challenges with difficult wire placement can occur when the biliary tree consists of multiple strictures and sharp angulations. Here we describe a case of guidewire placement through a difficult malignant biliary stricture using single operator cholangioscopy, highlighting the versatility of cholangioscopy especially in anatomically challenging patients. |
