Native major papilla
Difficult bile duct cannulation, defined by the presence of 1 of the following: 1) unsuccessful bile duct cannulation within 10 cannulation attempts, 2) unsuccessful bile duct cannulation within 10 minutes spent in cannulation, or 3) 2 unintended pancreatic duct cannulation or opacification with contrast
