ABSTRACT Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is an established alternative to other biliary drainage techniques for treating malignant biliary obstruction. Although the anastomosis created by EUS‐HGS is believed to mature within several weeks, histopathological evidence supporting this assumption remains limited, particularly in ...

Prevention of Adverse Events in Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Biliary Drainage
Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) is used when biliary drainage using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography fails. Recently, it has been adopted as a primary biliary drainage method, and its indications have expanded.

Recent developments in endoscopic ultrasonography-guided gastroenterostomy
Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) can be caused by benign and malignant diseases. GOO often leads to a decreased quality of life, because of nausea, vomiting, and problems with oral food intake. Traditionally, surgical gastrojejunostomy (SGJ) has been the

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

ABSTRACT Background Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the standard treatment for acute cholecystitis (AC), but some patients are unfit for (immediate) surgery. Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage (EUS‐GBD) using a lumen‐apposing metal stent (LAMS) is increasingly used in this population.

Bioresorbable Scaffolds for Coronary Arteries: Where Do We Stand Today?
Bioresorbable coronary scaffolds are moving from thick strut pitfalls to thinner, stronger, healing‐oriented designs. Integrating advances in materials, guided implantation with preparation, size, and postdilation steps, and resorption aligned to healing, we synthesize clinical evidence and chart a roadmap toward intelligent, transient platforms ...
