Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Endoscopic bile duct stone (BDS) removal is a well-established treatment; however, the preference for basket or balloon catheters for extraction is operator-dependent It is reported that complete endoscopic treatment with a single catheter is more likely when choosing a balloon catheter over a basket catheter for extraction of BDSs≤10mm. However, a study comparing the two catheter types in patients with periampullary diverticulum has not been performed, and there is no strong basis on which to recommend the balloon catheter as a first-line stone removal device. The investigators therefore conducted a multicenter prospective randomized trial to compare catheter performance in patients with periampullary diverticulum.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A prospective, multi-center, investigator sponsored, randomized controlled trial, 80 subjects will be randomly assigned to groups that were treated with basket or balloon catheters.

A descriptive analysis will be performed on primary endpoint, containing frequency of number and percentage of patients. A two proportion equality test will be conducted to explore whether incidence rates are different.Descriptive statistics including number (N), mean, median, standard deviation, minimum and maximum, will be produced for all continuous variables. Frequency tables of number (N) and percentage of subjects will be produced for all categorical variables.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Balloon catheter group

Bile duct stones extraction was carried out with a balloon catheter.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Balloon catheter

Intervention Type DEVICE

Balloon stone extraction was carried out with a balloon catheter \[Extractor Pro RX \[M00547000, M00547010, or M00547020\]; Boston Scientific,Shang hai,China). The Extractor Pro has multiple sizes (9-12, 12-15, and 15-18mm), the choice being made on the basis of the CBD diameter. It has a contrast-injection hole above the balloon for the performance of balloon occlusion cholangiography (BOC).

Basket catheter group

Bile duct stones extraction was carried out with a basket catheter.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Basket catheter

Intervention Type DEVICE

Basket stone extraction was performed with a basket catheter (Flower Basket V \[FG-V435P or FG-V425PR\]; Olympus Corp., Shang hai,China).
