Slim-endoscope-stabilized rendezvous endoscopic retrograde cholangiography via endoscopic ultrasound transgastric bile duct access: utilization for severe pancreatitis with consecutive obstructive jaundice with cholangitis and inaccessible major papilla. [PDF]
After failed biliary cannulation via standard endoscopic retrograde cholangiography approach, endoscopic-ultrasound-based rendezvous-endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (EUS-RV-ERC) is a valid alternative. One of the challenging factors in this setting

Annular Esophageal Leiomyoma Mimicking a Foregut Cyst on Endoscopic Ultrasound [PDF]
On ultrasound, leiomyoma of the esophagus is typically described as being a hypoechoic tumor located in the submucosa with a smooth contour. We report a case of esophageal leiomyoma that presented unusually as an anechoic (cyst-like) lesion on endoscopic

Selection criteria for preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography before laparoscopic cholecystectomy and endoscopic treatment of bile duct stones. Results of a retrospective; single center study between 1996-2002 [PDF]
AIM: The optimal treatment for bile duct stones (in terms of cost, complications and accuracy) is unclear. The aim of our study was to determine the predictive factors for preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
