Covered Self‐Expanding Metal Stents Versus Multiple Plastic Stents in Treating Biliary Strictures Post‐Orthotopic Liver Transplantation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Anastomotic biliary strictures are a common complication following orthotopic liver transplantation (post‐OLT), impacting morbidity and graft survival. This meta‐analysis evaluates the efficacy, safety, and cost‐effectiveness of covered self‐expanding metal stents (cSEMS) versus multiple plastic stents (MPS) for treating post‐OLT ...

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

DEN 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

Role of Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Gastroenterostomy for Benign Gastric Outlet Obstruction

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Benign gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) often results from intrinsic conditions like peptic strictures, caustic‐induced stricture, and surgical anastomoses, and extrinsic conditions like pancreatitis, hematoma, and superior mesenteric artery syndrome.

Efficacy and Safety of a 6‐Month Placement of a Fully Covered Self‐Expanding Metal Stent for Refractory or Recurrent Hepaticojejunostomy Anastomotic Stricture via Balloon Enteroscopy‐Assisted Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Balloon enteroscopy‐assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (BE‐assisted ERCP) is performed for hepaticojejunostomy anastomotic stricture (HJAS) after biliary‐enteric anastomosis. Although endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) and plastic stent (PS) placement are commonly performed, they result in high recurrence rates ...

Successful Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Giant Inflammatory Fibroid Polyp in Terminal Ileum

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT A 55‐year‐old woman presented with postprandial abdominal pain and diarrhea. Contrast‐enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed a large tumor in the ileocecal region. Colonoscopy demonstrated a pedunculated polyp originating from the terminal ileum, intermittently prolapsing into the cecum with a stalk‐like base.
