[Endoscopic-percutaneous rendezvous procedure for the management of difficult biliary tract: experience in an endoscopic center in Lima-Peru].

Objectives: Biliary access refractory to conventional cannulation techniques is a challenging clinical scenario for most endoscopists. The endoscopic-percutaneous rendezvous technique is an optimal alternative with high success rates and low complication rates in expert hands, however its routine use in the West, mainly in Latin America, is still limited. The aim of our study was to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of endoscopic-percutaneous rendezvous in the management of difficult biliary tract in an endoscopic center in Peru.
