ABSTRACT Objectives Gallbladder drainage is used for patients with acute cholecystitis (AC) who are unsuitable for emergency cholecystectomy. Percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD), endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage (EUS‐GBD), and endoscopic transpapillary GBD (ETGBD) are used as bridge‐to‐surgery (BTS) approaches, but ...

A modified ASA‐PS‐based sedation management system is evaluated in a prospective feasibility study of 2,000 patients undergoing pancreatobiliary endoscopy. Patients are stratified by modified ASA‐PS classification and predefined high‐risk criteria, with anesthesiologist assessment determining sedation providers.

ABSTRACT Objectives The clinical performance of double half‐pigtail plastic stents (DHPs) for malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) remains unclear. We compared DHPs with straight plastic stents (STs) regarding the timing, incidence, and causes of recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO). Methods This single‐center retrospective cohort study evaluated

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Inside stents are increasingly used for malignant hilar biliary obstruction because of their prolonged patency and removability. Although reported migration rates vary, migration remains a clinical concern, and deployment in angulated bile ducts can be technically challenging. We evaluated a novel pig‐tail type inside stent

ABSTRACT Objectives Sustainable development oals in gastrointestinal endoscopy (GIE), referred to as “green endoscopy,” have been a research focus in Western countries. However, the environmental burden of GIE in Japan is poorly understood. We quantify medical waste and estimate GIE‐derived incineration‐related CO2 emissions in Japan. Methods In a dual‐

ABSTRACT Post‐hepatectomy bile leak is a common postoperative complication. It usually resolves spontaneously but may be refractory. In cases of completely disconnected bile ducts, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)–guided drainage is often technically difficult, and invasive additional procedures may be required.
