Evolving patient journey in the management of active perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease: A temporal perspective

Colorectal Disease, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Over recent decades, there has been a more pronounced shift towards earlier therapeutic intervention in luminal Crohn's disease (CD).

Diagnosis and treatment of gastric abscess by endoscopic ultrasound: A mini‐review of the preliminary application

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
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.

Optimal timing of precut sphincterotomy to prevent post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis in difficult biliary cannulation: A retrospective study

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Objectives Precut sphincterotomy is often performed when bile duct cannulation is difficult; however, the former has a higher risk of complications than conventional methods. Early precut reduces the risk of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP).
