First Case Report of Triple Recurrent Cholangitis of “Coildocholithiasis,” Following Hepatic Artery Pseudoaneurysm Embolization

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT A 72‐year‐old man developed a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (HAP) caused by a liver abscess due to acute cholangitis and choledocholithiasis. He was successfully treated by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with tornado microcoils. Two years later, he developed severe acute cholangitis caused by a biliary stone formed around a coil ...

Is endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation safe for treating large CBD stones?

The Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology, 2016
In recent years, endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation (EPLBD) with endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) has been shown to be an effective technique for the removal of large or difficult common bile duct (CBD) stones, as an alternative to EST. Reviewing

Successful Endoscopic Treatment of Walled‐Off Necrosis With Complex Quadruple Fistulas Among the Necrotic Cavity, Stomach, Duodenum, and Common Bile Duct

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT We report an extremely rare case of duodenal bulb perforation caused by a double‐pigtail plastic stent placed for walled‐off necrosis (WON), coexisting with a biliary fistula to the WON and a choledochoduodenal fistula, all successfully managed with endoscopic treatment alone.

Double-balloon enteroscopy for ERCP in patients with Billroth II anatomy: results of a large series of papillary large-balloon dilation for biliary stone removal

Endoscopy International Open, 2015
Background and study aims: Data on double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE)-assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogrphy (ERCP) in patients with Billroth II gastrectomy and the use of endoscopic papillary large-balloon dilation (EPLBD) for the removal ...

Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Gallbladder Drainage as a Bridge to Surgery for Acute Cholecystitis: A Comparative Study

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Gallbladder drainage is used for patients with acute cholecystitis (AC) who are unsuitable for emergency cholecystectomy. Percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD), endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage (EUS‐GBD), and endoscopic transpapillary GBD (ETGBD) are used as bridge‐to‐surgery (BTS) approaches, but ...

Clinical Outcomes of Double Half‐Pigtail Versus Straight Plastic Stents for Endoscopic Biliary Drainage of Malignant Distal Biliary Obstruction

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives The clinical performance of double half‐pigtail plastic stents (DHPs) for malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) remains unclear. We compared DHPs with straight plastic stents (STs) regarding the timing, incidence, and causes of recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO). Methods This single‐center retrospective cohort study evaluated

Feasibility of a Deep‐Learning Model for Objective Visualization‐Quality Assessment During Cholangioscopy‐Guided Lithotripsy: A Proof‐of‐Concept Study

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT During peroral cholangioscopy‐guided electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL), stone fragmentation obscures the visual field (the “snowstorm effect”), and visualization quality has been assessed only subjectively. This proof‐of‐concept study explored the feasibility of a deep‐learning method for objectively quantifying visualization quality during ...

An Anatomist's View on the Crosstalk Between the Liver and the Lung

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2026.
The liver and the lung have a similar three‐dimensional and cellular architecture as well as functional communalities. The structural, functional, and pathophysiological interplay between both organs suggests the existence of an interorgan axis, the liver‐lung axis. Created in biorender.com.

Prevention and treatment of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography cholangitis: Current evidence and future directions

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2026.
1. Prevention strategies should be stratified by preoperative cholangitis status. 2. For pre‐existing cholangitis, therapeutic antibiotics plus urgent drainage are essential; ENBD and stents show similar efficacy. 3. Early biliary drainage is the cornerstone of treatment; endoscopic drainage is preferred, with PTCD/EUS‐BD as second‐line. 4.
