Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography‐guided Biliary Drainage with Duckbill‐type Anti‐reflux Metal Stent versus Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Hepaticogastrostomy for Malignant Distal Biliary Obstruction in Pancreatic Cancer with Duodenal Invasion

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Duodenal invasion is a risk factor for early recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) due to the increased risk of duodenobiliary reflux. Transpapillary biliary drainage using anti‐reflux metal stents (ARMS) and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) are two different strategies for this condition.

A Novel Bioabsorbable Covered Stent for Advancing Bile Duct Injury Management: A Preclinical Study in a Porcine Model (With Video)

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Self‐expandable metallic and plastic stents have been used for biliary tract injuries, but they are not entirely adequate as treatments. This study investigated the potential of our novel self‐expandable bioabsorbable covered stent (SEBCS) to treat bile duct injuries. We developed a novel SEBCS by covering a self‐expandable bioabsorbable stent

Concurrent Diagnosis of Superficial Esophageal Cancer and Esophageal Achalasia: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We report a case of a 70‐year‐old woman with esophageal achalasia and concurrent superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Three adjacent superficial lesions were resected en bloc by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), with no lymphovascular invasion.

Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Drainage With Lumen‐apposing Metal Stent versus Plastic Stent for the Treatment of Pancreatic Pseudocyst: A Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Background Pancreatic pseudocyst (PP), following acute or chronic pancreatitis, may become symptomatic or persist beyond 6–8 weeks, requiring drainage. Endoscopic ultrasonography‐guided drainage (EUS‐D) is the preferred method, using double pigtail plastic stents (DPPS) or self‐expandable metallic stents (SEMS), such as lumen‐apposing metal ...
