Although endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is considered the gold standard to manage biliary disorders, it has its own limitations. The single-operator cholangioscopy (SOC) system (Spyglass) may offer an interesting compromise for most advanced biliary endoscopists, in terms of size (10 Fr diameter) and complexity of use. SOC is a great step toward intraductal visualization and therapy but the best is yet to come.

Study reaction of pancreas in 35 patients (14 males, 21 females, mean age: 49.12) underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogaphy with and without sphinterotomy at Bach Mai Hospital from February 2007 to February 2008. The result showed that: f pure serum amylase increased immediately in 77.14 % patients by fourth hour after surgery. Increasing in pure serum amylase returned by 96 hours after procedure without treatment. Increasing in pure serum amylase depended on some factors as contrast enhanced agents, sphinterotomy or not. Acute pancreatitis was a complication after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogaphy

Multiple small air bubbles were introduced into the gallbladder (GB) during the endoscopic retrogradecholangio-pancreatography(ERCP). Prolonged appearance of movable small round filling defects in the GB weredetected for more than 18 hours in the GB. The importance of delayed GB films after ERCP and the differentiationbetween the stones and air bubbles are discussed.

Jaundice in older children can occur when any obstruction is found within the bile ducts, either from bile stones, parasites, choledochal cysts and rarely, secondary to tumors. We present a previously well, 10-year-old Filipino boy with three-week history of progressive jaundice and tea-colored urine, and was initially assessed to have biliary ascariasis. Ultrasound showed a heterogeneous focus spanning the gallbladder neck and confirmed on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography as an exophytic mass at the ampulla of Vater. Tumor biopsy and immunohistochemical staining confirmed the diagnosis of Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma of the Bile Ducts. Chemotherapy was initiated to reduce the size of the tumor before any surgical intervention could be attempted. Despite chemotherapy, the tumor progressively grew. He acquired a respiratory infection which led to sepsis and his eventual demise. The disease should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a child with obstructive jaundice after exclusion of other more common causes.
