Organ‐sparing management of luminal gastrointestinal cancers: current and emerging approaches
Abstract Treatment of luminal gastrointestinal malignancies with curative intent has traditionally required a combination of systemic treatments and complex surgical resections, which carry risks to function and quality of life. Organ‐sparing approaches to treating gastrointestinal malignancies have advanced significantly.

Abstract Gastric abscess is a rare condition caused by gastric barrier damage. It is easily misdiagnosed in clinical practice as a cancer recurrence or submucosal tumor, especially after surgery or endoscopic submucosal dissection. With a relatively high mortality rate, the cause and clinical characteristics of gastric abscesses are obscure.

Endosonography and magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of high anal fistulae – a comparison
Anal fistula is a benign inflammatory disease with unclear etiology which develops in approximately 10 in 100 000 adult patients. Surgical treatment of fistulae is associated with a risk of damaging anal sphincters.

Abstract Background Pancreatic pseudocyst (PP), following acute or chronic pancreatitis, may become symptomatic or persist beyond 6–8 weeks, requiring drainage. Endoscopic ultrasonography‐guided drainage (EUS‐D) is the preferred method, using double pigtail plastic stents (DPPS) or self‐expandable metallic stents (SEMS), such as lumen‐apposing metal ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is sometimes used to assess the depth of invasion in esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (EGJA); however, its diagnostic performance in EGJA remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the additional value of EUS to conventional endoscopy (CE) in assessing invasion depth. Methods In this single‐

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Accurate diagnosis of focal liver lesions (FLLs) is crucial for determining the appropriate treatment strategies. Although percutaneous liver biopsy (PLB) is the standard diagnostic procedure, it has limitations, particularly for difficult‐to‐access lesions.

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.
