Initial Experience With Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Gallbladder Drainage Using Lumen‐apposing Metal Stents in Extremely Elderly and Frail Patients

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage (EUS‐GBD) using lumen‐apposing metal stents (LAMS) is a treatment option for acute cholecystitis in high‐risk surgical patients. However, data on extremely elderly and frail patients are limited. We report our initial experience with EUS‐GBD using electrocautery‐enhanced LAMS in this
