Abstract:Objective Short-type single-balloon enteroscopy-assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (SSBE-ERCP) has been increasingly used in patients with surgically altered anatomy. However, data on its clinical outcomes and factors associated with procedural success remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of SSBE-ERCP in patients with biliary-pancreatic diseases after digestive tract reconstruction and to identify factors influencing procedural success. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent SSBE-ERCP at the Digestive Endoscopy Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University between January 2018 and July 2025. Data on procedural success rates, clinical outcomes, adverse events, and factors contributing to procedural failure were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 213 patients undergoing 315 SSBE-ERCP procedures were included. The enteroscopy (target site reach) rate was 83.49% (263/315), the biliary-pancreatic duct cannulation rate was 91.22% (239/263), and the overall technical success rate was 75.87% (239/315). Among technically successful procedures, the overall clinical success rate was 94.56% (226/239). Adverse events occurred in 8.57% (27/315) of procedures, with the majority being mild to moderate. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified Roux-en-Y anastomosis (OR, 4.17; 95% CI, 1.68-10.33; P=0.002), Braun anastomosis (OR, 5.88; 95% CI, 2.10-16.46; P=0.001), and pancreatic diseases (OR, 4.41; 95% CI, 1.77-10.99; P=0.001) as independent factors associated with procedural failure. Conclusion SSBE-ERCP is effective and safe for the management of biliary-pancreatic diseases in patients with surgically altered anatomy. Roux-en-Y anastomosis, Braun anastomosis, and pancreatic diseases are independent predictors of procedural failure.
