ABSTRACT
We would like to congratulate Drs. Espinel and Pinedo for their excellent results in single-ballon enteroscopy-assisted ERCP recently published in REED(1).We also want to share our experience. Between 2015 and 2021 we have performed 31 procedures in 26 patients. Half of the procedures (45.16%) were performed in patients with Roux-en-Y hepatic jejunostomy. Eight of these (22.80%) had prior primary bile duct surgery and six (19.35%) had prior Whipple surgery. The other half of the procedures (54.8%) presented native papilla: 10 (32.25%) subtotal gastrectomy and seven (22.58%) gastric bypass surgery.
