Percutaneous Cholangiopancreatoscopy Registry
Sponsor: Johns Hopkins University
Summary
The Percutaneous Cholangiopancreatoscopy (PCPS) registry is an observational, multicentric, prospective, and retrospective registry of patients undergoing the percutaneous cholangiopancreatoscopy procedure at sites across the United States. In the retrospective component of the study, clinical and procedural data regarding patients who have undergone clinical indicated percutaneous cholangiopancreatoscopy procedure in the past will be collected from all the registry sites and stored in a secure database. The prospective component of the registry will run for three years at each site where patients undergoing the clinically indicated percutaneous cholangiopancreatoscopy procedure will be enrolled in the study, and the patients' data will be collected whenever the patients present to interventional radiology (IR) for a procedure or clinic visit.

Percutaneous cholangiopancreatoscopy
Per standard treatment protocol for percutaneous cholangiopancreatoscopy, access will be gained into the biliary system using the biliary tube or into the gallbladder using the cholecystostomy tube. After access has been secured, through a peel-away sheath a Spy Glass Discover Digital Catheter will be introduced. Next, either, the stones will then be removed from the biliary system or gallbladder using a combination of baskets, and lithotripsy equipment as required, or in case of biliary strictures, a clamshell biopsy will be taken from the stricture site as identified on endoscopic visualization and cross-sectional imaging. Further intervention maybe performed for the stricture based on operator preference. After the complete stone removal/ stricture management the cholecystostomy/ biliary tube will be removed after the patient passes a clinical capping trial.
