Abstract

Endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) is a basic procedure for pancreatobiliary endoscopy and is currently widely performed as a standard procedure for the treatment of various pancreatobiliary diseases worldwide. Later, in 1982, endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) was introduced as an alternative to EST, and EPBD is known to reduce the risk of bleeding and perforation compared to EST. In order to safely and effectively perform EST and EPBD procedures, it is essential to select an appropriate target for the procedure, as well as to understand and familiarize with the anatomical structure of the duodenal papilla, related instruments, and basic techniques of EST and EPBD.
