During ERCP, each biliary stricture was sampled twice using the cytology brush (BrushMaster V, Olympus, Hamburg, Germany) inserted over a guidewire, with at least 10 to-and-fro motions through the stricture per sampling under fluoroscopy control. Dilatation of the stricture was not routinely performed. Material from the first sampling was smeared directly onto microscopic slides for routine cytology. After the second sampling, the brush was cut and placed into 10 mL of ThinPrep CytoLyt solution (Hologic, Marlborough, MA, USA) for subsequent FISH analysis. The sampling was considered successful when the tissue sample obtained was of sufficient quantity and quality to enable both cytological and FISH analysis. Routinely, biliary plastic or fully covered self-expandable metallic stents were introduced.

After visualization of the biliary stricture balloon dilation was performed with 18-Fr balloons at the initial intervention and 24-Fr balloons at subsequent interventions if the stricture was distal to the hilum. If indicated 10 Fr plastic stents (Endoplus Drainage, Pflugbeil, Germany) in appropriate length and number were inserted to bridge strictures.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiography Procedure
ERC was performed under conscious sedation as a standard procedure using midazolam, propofol, and/or opioids according to the German guidelines [16] . The guidelines of the German Society of Digestive and Metabolic Diseases (DGVS) recommend a prophylactic antibiotic therapy prior to ERC under certain conditions [17] .
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
