ABSTRACT Duodenal laparoscopy and endoscopy cooperative surgery (D‐LECS) for superficial non‐ampullary duodenal tumors has been increasingly performed as a minimally invasive treatment for lesions with a high risk of complications when treated by endoscopy alone. However, for tumors near the papilla of Vater, the optimal treatment strategy has not been

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.
