Abstract Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is a useful alternative treatment for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) failure. However, serious complications sometimes occur. Bleeding is an early complication that occurs during puncture; however, there have been some reports of late‐onset rupture of a ...

ABSTRACT A 49‐year‐old male developed liver dysfunction during chemotherapy for rectal cancer located in the rectosigmoid region. Although magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography initially indicated sclerosing cholangitis, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and intraductal ultrasonography revealed multiple non‐contiguous intraductal ...

Abstract While hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often invades the portal or hepatic vein to form tumor thrombus, tumor thrombus in the bile duct is rare. In such cases, differentiation from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is difficult, and the tumor often appears as a smooth, yellowish‐white, polypoid mass within the bile duct lumen.

ABSTRACT Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is an effective method for cases where transpapillary approaches to pancreato‐biliary diseases are challenging, though serious complications often occur. Here, we report an extremely rare case of delayed biliary hemorrhage due to pseudoaneurysm rupture after EUS‐HGS, caused by ...

ABSTRACT Objectives To prevent cholangitis in patients with unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO), we recently implemented scheduled inside plastic stent (IS) exchange every 2–4 months. This study aimed to evaluate whether this strategy prevents cholangitis onset and reduces unplanned hospitalizations without increasing adverse events.

ABSTRACT Objectives The risk of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) needs to be predicted in order to take adequate preventive measures in individual cases. The aim of this study was to develop a clinical prediction rule for PEP in biliary ERCP for patients with intact papilla.

The stent‐in‐stent technique involves placing another fully covered metal stent inside an irremovable embedded stent to compress tissue and enable safe removal. In this study of 17 patients, the overall technical success rate was 76.5%, with higher efficacy via EUS‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (100%) and transpapillary routes (80%).
