The purpose of the study is to prospectively evaluate the deep biliary cannulation in ERCP with the angled tipped guide wire or the straight tipped guide wire.
Patients coming to ERCP examination are being divided randomly to two different groups. The deep biliary cannulation is started with predetermined guide wire. If the cannulation does not succeed in two minutes, the procedure is continued as normal.
