ABSTRACT Objective Covered self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are widely used for treating distal malignant biliary obstruction (MBO). Severe SEMS angulation can cause stent dysfunction. Placement of a long double‐pigtail plastic stent inside the SEMS (the “long‐anchoring stent method”) may straighten the angulated SEMS, thereby achieving effective ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is an alternative biliary drainage method after failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Nevertheless, it is associated with adverse events (AEs), including peritonitis and stent migration.

ABSTRACT Objectives Covered self‐expandable metal stents (CSEMS) are widely used for malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO), but cholecystitis, post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP), stent migration, and recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) remain clinically important limitations.

ABSTRACT Malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO) remains challenging for biliary decompression. Although endoscopic ultrasound‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) has emerged as an alternative to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography‐guided BD (ERCP‐BD), evidence regarding EUS‐BD for MHBO is limited. Aims To evaluate the efficacy and safety of

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Inside stents are increasingly used for malignant hilar biliary obstruction because of their prolonged patency and removability. Although reported migration rates vary, migration remains a clinical concern, and deployment in angulated bile ducts can be technically challenging. We evaluated a novel pig‐tail type inside stent
