ABSTRACT The gel immersion method improves endoscopic visualization by displacing debris and blood with a viscous gel. Although it is commonly used in procedures such as endoscopic mucosal resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection, its use in double‐balloon enteroscopy‐assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (DBE‐ERCP) has rarely ...

Intravenous bolus somatostatin after diagnostic cholangiopancreatography reduces the incidence of pancreatitis associated with therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedures: A randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background: Previous studies suggested that somatostatin given before endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) may reduce the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis.

ABSTRACT Background Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by its poor prognosis. Cytology is essential for diagnostic confirmation and ancillary studies. The endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) set a precedent, facilitating cytological sampling through fine‐needle aspiration (FNA), with a sensitivity of 93% and a specificity of 95%.

ABSTRACT Introduction Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is technically challenging, with high operator radiation exposure, physical strain, and a steep learning curve, necessitating a robotic solution. This study evaluated robotic‐assisted ERCP feasibility and efficacy in an animal model.
