Quick Large Balloon Dilatation for Removal of Large Bile Duct Stones (SHODBADI)
Trial Parameters
Brief Summary
ESGE guidelines suggests 30-60 seconds endoscopic large balloon papillary dilation from the disappearance of the waist of the papilla. The investigators have good results in stone removal with much quicker dilatations when the cholangiogram is followed and the dilation is finished as soon as the disappearance of the waist of the papilla is seen. This Scandinavian multicenter prospective study is especially interested in stone clearance rate and short and long-term adverse events such as pancreatitis, cholangitis, bleeding, perforations, residual biliary stones, and newly developing biliary stones.
