Abstract
Precutting is an endoscopic technique during ERCP that is indicated to achieve deep cannulation of biliary and/or pancreatic ducts through "difficult" papillas. Among recent studies the rate of success in difficult deep cannulation rises but the number of complications increases as well. We performed 81 pre-cuts in the same number of patients with a late of success of 88% and a rare of complications of 6 %; no deaths occurred.
