Clinical Trial Summary

In patients with biliodigestive anastomosis direct cholangiography (ERC) is due to changed anatomy commonly not possible. The aim of the study is to test the feasibility to perform direct cholangiography in these patients via double-balloon enteroscopy and to compare it to MR cholangiography.
