Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage using a double‐pigtail plastic stent (DPPS) harbors the risk of bile leakage and pneumoperitoneum through the anastomosis site. When the inner sheath of the DPPS system is retracted halfway back into the stent, multiple side holes emerge on the stent end, which accelerates the active gallbladder lavage.

Paired Duodenal and Salivary Microbiome Analysis in Pancreatic Cancer Without Duct Obstruction
ABSTRACT Background Bacterial migration from the oral cavity to the upper gastrointestinal tract has been proposed as a contributor to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) onset and prognosis. Whether PDAC is associated with alterations of the oral–duodenal microbiome continuum remains unclear.

Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment With Cholangiopancreatoscopy [PDF]
ABSTRACT Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) remains the standard for diagnosing and treating pancreatobiliary diseases. Although non‐invasive imaging modalities have significantly improved, ERCP continues to play an indispensable role in clinical practice. However, ERCP has inherent limitations. Diagnostic challenges persist in cases

ABSTRACT Background Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms with low‐grade dysplasia (IPMNs w/LGD) and benign cysts, including serous cystadenomas (SCAs), are common pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) that are better managed conservatively. The burden of patients who undergo surgical resection for these cysts is unknown.
