ndoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)

remains challenging in patients who have undergone

surgical reconstruction of the intestine. In 2001, double-

balloon enteroscope (DBE) was reported by Yamamoto et al

to be an effective procedure for the diagnosis and treatment

of small intestinal lesions. In 2005, DBE-assisted ERCPwas first

successfully by Haruta et al used to treat a late anastomotic

stricture in a patient who undergone biliary reconstruction by

R-Y choledochojejunostomy after liver transplantation. After

that, several studies with long enteroscope have reported

that balloon enteroscope-assisted ERCP (BEA-ERCP) is a safe

and effective procedure with about 75 % of reaching the

blind end. However, long type enteroscope allows us to use

limited number of ERCP devices because of its 200 cm length.

Then short type double balloon enteroscope (DBE) has

been developed by Fujifilm Co., furthermore Olympus Co.

introduce the prototype of short single balloon enteroscope

(SBE) with bigger channel 3.2 mm in diameter. Using short

type SBE, we can diagnose and treat biliopancreatic diseases

with about 90% of reaching the blind end, 90% diagnostic

success rate, and 96% therapeutic success rate, because

short type SBE allows us to use most of ERCP devices, even

with guide-wire equipment. And complication rate is also rare

3% in pancreatitis, 1.5% in perforation, etc. In general, BEA-

ERCP seems to be taken long time, because it is sometimes

difficult to choose right route to the papilla or chodedochal

or pancreatic anastomosis. In order to choose right route,

several techniques such as intralimunal injection of indigo

carmine by Yano et al and CO2 inflation guidance by Iwai

et al have been reported. Furthermore, PTBD rendezvous

technique and improvement of enteroscope such as passive

vending function etc. introduce to shorten the reaching blind

end time (10-21 min), although there are some learning

effect too. The rate of reaching blind end with short type

SBE is 94 % (126/134) in R-Y gastrectomy, 72% (39/54) in R-Y

choledochojejunostomy, 96% (71/74), 96% (71.74) in Child/

Whipple’s resection, and 97% (29/30) in B-II gastrectomy,

respectively. Using long type SBE, we could reach blind end in

94% (15/16) cases which could not be reached by short type

SBE and were mainly cases of R-Y Choledochojejunostomy.

Concerning about therapeutic procedures, we have

sometimes employed electrocautery in case of tight stricture

of anastomosis such as hepaticojejunostomy if guide-wire

passed and EUS-BD with forward-viewing echoendoscope

was performed in case of non-guide-wire passed. In cases

of large bile duct stone, we have made EPLBD and treated

by EHL after inserting SBE (direct cholangioscopy) into the

bile duct. Finally remaining difficult cases, which we could

not treated by SBE because of un-reaching blind end, were

treated by EUS-HGS route.
