ABSTRACT Background Covered self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are the standard for managing unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction (DMBO), as they prolong the time to recurrent biliary obstruction (TRBO). However, fully covered SEMS (FCSEMS) increases the risk of cholecystitis and pancreatitis.

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 ...

Abstract A 70‐year‐old male with lung cancer and interstitial pneumonia was diagnosed with ampullary carcinoma, causing obstructive jaundice. After the failure of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) was performed with a 7‐Fr plastic stent (PS) into the B2 bile duct.

ABSTRACT Background To evaluate the usefulness of the ELST‐blue score to explore its potential application in identifying high‐risk groups for early chronic pancreatitis (ECP) through reflecting on pancreatic elasticity and the reduction of pancreatic function, and we tried to demonstrate whether the ELST‐blue score was significantly associated with ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic duodenal stent (DS) placement has become a primary palliative approach for malignant gastric outlet obstruction (MGOO), offering minimally invasive symptom relief. However, complications and risk factors for stent dysfunction and prognostic indicators of survival are not fully elucidated.

ABSTRACT Background Sedation for conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has been reported to be safe even for elderly patients. However, the safety of sedation for balloon enteroscopy‐assisted ERCP (BE‐ERCP) has not been well‐studied in the elderly.

Comparison of the Usefulness of Covered and Uncovered Laser‐cut Metal Stents
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics of laser‐cut self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) and to compare the outcomes between covered and uncovered laser‐cut SEMS for malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO). Methods A multicenter retrospective analysis was conducted across eight Japanese university hospitals ...

This multicenter study identified use of dilation devices and antegrade stenting are risk factors for procedure‐related early adverse events following endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy. ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is useful in cases of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography ...
