Core Tip	Selective biliary cannulation during endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreaticography (ERCP) fails in 5%-15%, even in expert high volume centres. Precut sphincterotomy facilitates biliary access, but also has a failure rate. Alternative, more invasive options for achieving biliary therapy, such as percutaneous-endoscopic or endoscopic ultrasound guided rendez-vous procedure, percutaneous transhepatic or surgical intervention include a considerable morbidity. This study demonstrates that repeating the ERCP within a few days after initial failed precut is a successful strategy in the majority of patients and should be tried before contemplating more invasive, alternative interventions.
