The purpose of this research study is to collect data on the technical aspects of Lasparoscopy-assisted ERCP and patient outcomes to help guide future medical care of patients with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery.
Patients would have had a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in the past that had altered their gastric anatomy. Now they have developed bilary and/or pancreatic problems that require and ERCP. With their altered gastric anatomy a standard ERCP would not be possible. Thus they are scheduled for a Laparoscopy-assisted ERCP.
