Cholangioscopy
• Allows direct and optical contrast based (NBI) visualization of the biliary tree
• Particularly useful for assessing strictures and treating large stones and confirming their complete removal
• Role in assessing post-OLT biliary strictures???
• Can perform biopsies, laser or electrohydraulic lithotripsy, and even ablation
Cholangioscopy
• First done in 1974 (percutaneously)
• Mother-daughter scope – Fiber Optic (1976)– Video
• Probe based cholangioscopy (2005)
• Direct endoscope based cholangioscopy (1977)

Mother Daughter Cholangioscopy
• Requires 2 operators• Fragile “Daughter”
endoscope• Only 1 degree of
freedom• Small working channel• Some versions without
working channels or are fiber optic
“Spyglass” Data
• Single center study in India• 36 pts (22 M) with
indeterminate biliary strictures• All received cholangioscopy
with directed biopsies• 22 patients with cancer
– Cholangioscopy + : 21/22 (95%)
• 14 patients with benign lesions– Cholangioscopy - : 11/14
(79%)• Overall accuracy: 89% (32/36)
Ramchandani et al, GIE, 2011, 74:3, p. 511-519.
77% (23/30) yield in patients with negative ERCP with brushingsand EUS-FNA and no mass on imaging – Siddiqui et al CGH, 2012
Per Oral Cholangioscopy• Start with ERCP
• Perform sphincterotomy• Use ultra-stiff wire• May require anchoring
balloon in bile ducts• Advantages
– Better optics
– Larger working channel
• May benefit from CO2 rather than water insufflation– Better visualization– Less risk of air embolism
