We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using a cap-assisted colonoscope as the primary approach for ERCP in REY reconstruction. We included 47 patients with REY who underwent ERCP using a cap-assisted colonoscope between January 2017 and February 2022. The primary outcome was intubation success for ERCP using a cap-assisted colonoscope during REY reconstruction. The secondary outcomes were cannulation success, procedure-related adverse events, and variables affecting successful intubation.
