Single‐operator single‐balloon enteroscopy is safe and effective: A 6‐year retrospective study
In total, 922 patents with 1422 single‐operator single‐balloon enteroscopy (SBE) procedures were enrolled in the study. Based on the analyses of diagnostic yield, total enteroscopy rate, duration, insertion depth, and complications, and stratification analysis of the above parameters, the single‐operator SBE technique was found to be effective, safe ...
