A Novel Technique of Overtube‐assisted Ultrathin Endoscopic Biliary Drainage Using Multi‐Hole Self‐Expandable Metal Stents: A Case Report

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the standard procedure for biliary drainage; however, access can be challenging in patients with altered anatomy or tumor‐related distortion. Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) is a common alternative, yet it is not always feasible, particularly in patients with prior

Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Hepaticogastrostomy With Plastic Stents in Comparison to Transpapillary Drainage With Metallic Stents for Unresectable Malignant Distal Biliary Obstructions

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is usually performed for unresectable malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) when endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography‐guided biliary stenting with fully covered self‐expandable metallic stents (EBS‐MSs) fails.

Long‐term Outcomes of Intraductal Fully Covered Self‐Expandable Metal Stents for Anastomotic Biliary Strictures After Living Donor Liver Transplantation: Clinical and Economic Evaluation

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
In this single‐center retrospective study of anastomotic biliary strictures after living donor liver transplantation, intraductal fully covered self‐expandable metal stents (ID‐FCSEMSs) achieved durable stricture resolution with low restenosis. Compared with multiple plastic stents, ID‐FCSEMS were associated with fewer late biliary complications and a ...
