Gastroptosis as a Risk Factor of Stent Migration After Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Hepaticogastrostomy: A Case Report [PDF]
Gastroptosis may be associated with a higher risk of stent migration than non‐gastroptotic anatomy. ABSTRACT Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) has become an established, alternative biliary drainage technique for patients with failed or difficult endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

Simultaneous Placement of Three Thin‐Delivery Multi‐Hole Self‐Expandable Metallic Stents for Malignant Hilar Biliary Obstruction Using a Large‐Channel Duodenoscope [PDF]
ABSTRACT Endoscopic biliary drainage for malignant hilar biliary obstruction is technically demanding especially when multiple ducts require drainage. Plastic inside stents are widely used because of their removability and ease of exchange, but multiple insertion is often hindered by stent interference.

ABSTRACT Background The diagnostic performance of clinical diagnostic criteria for IgG4‐related sclerosing cholangitis 2020 (IgG4‐SC2020) has not been fully validated since its proposal as a revision of the 2012 criteria (IgG4‐SC2012). Methods We conducted a multicenter validation study to evaluate the diagnostic performance of IgG4‐SC2020 using ...

ABSTRACT Background Left‐sided hepatectomy for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma includes conventional left hepatectomy (C‐LH; H1234‐B), extended left hepatectomy (E‐LH; H12345′8′‐B‐MHV), and left trisectionectomy (LT; H123458‐B). The anatomical characteristics of the resected length of the right hepatic duct (RHD) in E‐LH remain unclear.
