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

ABSTRACT Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients with surgically altered anatomy is technically challenging, especially when the papilla is poorly oriented relative to the endoscope. We report a case of traction‐assisted ERCP using an S‐O clip for difficult biliary cannulation in a patient with Billroth II reconstruction and ...

Feasibility of primary precut sphincterotomy in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for patients with large oral protrusions of the duodenal papilla; prospective observation study in Japan [PDF]
Background/Aims Large oral protrusions may increase the difficulty of biliary cannulation in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and often require precut sphincterotomy. Precut sphincterotomy is a risk factor for post-ERCP pancreatitis (
