- Abstract
Right: side-viewing duodenoscopic image, showing the sessile pseudopolyp after luxating it out of the bile duct by means of an extraction balloon. gl GLO:FR0/01jul21:den13991-fig-0002.jpg PHOTO (COLOR): 2 Left: digital cholangioscopic image, revealing the polyp in the distal common bile duct after large balloon dilation (15 mm) and retracting it outside of the bile duct using the dedicated cholangioscopy snare. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed predominantly extrahepatic bile duct dilation, after which endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) was performed, identifying a sessile obstructive intraductal lesion (Fig. Digital single-operator cholangioscopy (DSOC) has revolutionized the endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of various hepato-pancreaticobiliary diseases, such as indeterminate biliary strictures and large balloon dilation-refractory common bile duct (CBD) stones, using either a retrograde or antegrade approach.1,2 Direct visualization provided by DSOC has furthermore paved the road towards minimally invasive treatment of intraductal neoplasms, although little evidence is available in this specific context.
