ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage (EUS‐GBD) using lumen‐apposing metal stents (LAMS) is a treatment option for acute cholecystitis in high‐risk surgical patients. However, data on extremely elderly and frail patients are limited. We report our initial experience with EUS‐GBD using electrocautery‐enhanced LAMS in this

Risk Factors for Peritonitis Associated With Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Hepaticogastrostomy
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is an alternative therapeutic option for unsuccessful endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with malignant biliary obstruction.

ABSTRACT Scintigraphy‐negative Meckel's diverticulum (MD) is diagnostically challenging in children, particularly when the underlying pathology differs between cases. Technetium‐99m pertechnetate scintigraphy is widely used for diagnosis; however, false‐negative results may occur when ectopic gastric mucosa is absent or when the diverticulum is ...

ABSTRACT Peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) and peroral pancreatoscopy (POPS) enable direct intraductal visualization for pancreatobiliary disease diagnosis and management. Nonetheless, conventional devices have relatively large diameters, limiting their use in narrow ducts.

ABSTRACT Duodenal laparoscopy and endoscopy cooperative surgery (D‐LECS) for superficial non‐ampullary duodenal tumors has been increasingly performed as a minimally invasive treatment for lesions with a high risk of complications when treated by endoscopy alone. However, for tumors near the papilla of Vater, the optimal treatment strategy has not been

ABSTRACT Concurrent malignant biliary obstruction (MBO) and type I duodenal stenosis represent a technically demanding scenario, as luminal narrowing frequently precludes passage of a standard side‐viewing duodenoscope and limits conventional transpapillary drainage.

ABSTRACT Objective Covered self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are widely used for treating distal malignant biliary obstruction (MBO). Severe SEMS angulation can cause stent dysfunction. Placement of a long double‐pigtail plastic stent inside the SEMS (the “long‐anchoring stent method”) may straighten the angulated SEMS, thereby achieving effective ...
