Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Hepaticogastrostomy With Plastic Stents in Comparison to Transpapillary Drainage With Metallic Stents for Unresectable Malignant Distal Biliary Obstructions

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is usually performed for unresectable malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) when endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography‐guided biliary stenting with fully covered self‐expandable metallic stents (EBS‐MSs) fails.

Pancreatitis Following Biliary Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography for Common Bile Duct Stones in Japan: A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) is an adverse event of ERCP‐related procedures. The present study aimed to evaluate the incidence of PEP in patients with an intact papilla who underwent ERCP for common bile duct stones and identify risk factors and preventive measures for PEP.

Peroral Direct Cholangioscopic-Guided Biopsy and Photodynamic Therapy Using an Ultraslim Upper Endoscope for Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma with Intraductal Tiny Nodular Tumor Growth

open access: yesGut and Liver, 2010
Bile-duct invasion is rare in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We report a case that received peroral direct cholangioscopy (PDCS)-guided endoscopic biopsy and photodynamic treatment (PDT) for recurrent HCC with intraductal tiny nodular ...

Stepwise Algorithm for Biliary Cannulation in Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in the Era of Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Biliary Drainage: A Single‐Center Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an essential procedure for the management of biliary diseases. Successful biliary cannulation is the first step. Advanced cannulation techniques, such as the double‐guidewire technique (DGW), precut techniques, and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)‐guided rendezvous (RV), have ...

Preoperative Diagnosis of BilIN‐3 Based on Peroral Cholangioscopy Leading to Pancreaticoduodenectomy in a Patient with Common Bile Duct Stones: A Case Report

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Biliary intraepithelial neoplasia (BilIN) is a precursor of bile duct adenocarcinoma that arises in the setting of chronic biliary or liver disease. Because BilIN spreads as a flat or micropapillary lesion, it is difficult to detect by imaging, and biopsy interpretation is often complicated by inflammation or prior instrumentation ...

The Usefulness of Peroral Cholangioscopy for Intrahepatic Stones

open access: yes, 2022
Peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) is believed to be effective in treating intrahepatic stones; however, reports on its efficacy are few. We reviewed the results of intrahepatic stones treated with fluoroscopic guidance or POCS.

Optimal Follow-up of Incidental Pancreatic Cystic Lesions without Worrisome Features: The Follow-up Strategy Is Still Evolving

open access: yesGut and Liver
Background/Aims: Peroral cholangioscopy (POC) has been used to assess intrahepatic duct (IHD) lesions but with a limited role. A new multibending (MB) ultraslim endoscope has been designed to improve POC performance.
