ABSTRACT Objectives Anastomotic biliary strictures are a common complication following orthotopic liver transplantation (post‐OLT), impacting morbidity and graft survival. This meta‐analysis evaluates the efficacy, safety, and cost‐effectiveness of covered self‐expanding metal stents (cSEMS) versus multiple plastic stents (MPS) for treating post‐OLT ...

Hidden papilla and periampullary diverticulum: Curtain up for stacked folds
Proper identification of the Vaterian papilla is a vital prerequisite for success in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Overall, a “hidden papilla” situation is uncommon, often attributable to, for example, intradiverticular localizations in
