Endoscopic papillary large‐balloon dilation ( EPLBD ) has been popular worldwide for difficult stones. At the primary stage, EPLBD is done immediately after endoscopic sphincterotomy ( ES ) or after previous ES . Recently, several endoscopists have reported the feasibility and safety of EPLBD without ES and post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis ( PEP ) as adverse events. Herein, we encountered a case of PEP in which EPLBD was carried out through a spontaneous fistula in the papillary roof, although there was no manipulation of the pancreatic duct. We learned a lesson from the present case in which possible PEP might occur during the procedure of EPLBD without ES .
