Performing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in bariatric patients with gastric bypass is often challenging. Many techniques have been described. Recently, Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) - direct transgastric ERCP (EDGE) by using lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) has shown efficacy to reach biliary orifice and perform conventional ERCP with good safety profile and low risk of adverse events.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) training remains challenging. This study used 3D printing techniques to develop and optimize a portable ERCP training simulator and to implement basic and advanced practical techniques. Subsequently, we aimed to determine whether endoscopy trainees acquired proficiency in ERCP techniques and assess any improvements in their skill levels from using this model.

Background: Adverse events after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are rare, and post-ERCP pancreatitis is a serious adverse event. This study aimed to determine the role of aggressive intravenous hydration with lactated Ringer's solution at a specific volume with 20% human albumin before ERCP in reducing the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis.

Methods: This study was a single-centre randomized clinical trial.
