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 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 ...

ABSTRACT Heavily calcified coronary lesions remain a major challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), often limiting the effectiveness of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). We report a five‐case series in which IVL failed to achieve adequate lesion modification but was successfully augmented by the addition of one or more buddy wires.

Perivesicular Abscess Drainage with Lumen-Apposing SelfExpanding Metal Stents
Abdominal and pelvic abscesses can occur due to a number of reasons, the most common being surgery. They are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The treatment approach for these types of collections is often the initiation of broad-spectrum antibiotics, accompanied by drainage.
