Core Tip

Core Tip: The novel method of endoscopic papillectomy mainly includes two modifications: Isolating bile from pancreatic juice with a bile duct stent and closing the wound surface with metal clips and fibrin glue. Our retrospective comparison showed that postoperative adverse events, including bleeding, pancreatitis, and overall adverse events, were less frequent in the novel endoscopic papillectomy group than in the conventional endoscopic papillectomy group. Postoperative perforation was entirely prevented by this novel method. This study demonstrates that novel endoscopic papillectomy is a potentially effective and safe method for reducing postoperative adverse events.
