Pre‐cutting using a noseless papillotome with independent lumens for contrast material and guidewire

Background:  The technical success of therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) depends on selective cannulation into the bile duct. We have developed a new type of precut papillotome for selective cannulation.
