A Case of Obstructive Jaundice due to Bile Duct Tumor Thrombus of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Diagnosed by Peroral Cholangioscopy

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract While hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often invades the portal or hepatic vein to form tumor thrombus, tumor thrombus in the bile duct is rare. In such cases, differentiation from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is difficult, and the tumor often appears as a smooth, yellowish‐white, polypoid mass within the bile duct lumen.

Short‐Term Efficacy and Long‐Term Limitations of Self‐Expandable Metallic Stent Placement for Colorectal Obstruction due to Extracolonic Malignancies

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Objectives Although previous studies have investigated colonic stenting for obstruction due to extracolonic malignancies (ECMs), long‐term data—especially concerning quality of life and chemotherapy resumption—remain insufficient. Methods Clinical data of 25 patients with ECM‐induced colorectal obstruction were retrospectively analyzed.

Delayed Biliary Hemorrhage due to Pseudoaneurysm Rupture Caused by Migration of Placed Plastic Stent After Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Hepaticogastrostomy

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) is an effective method for cases where transpapillary approaches to pancreato‐biliary diseases are challenging, though serious complications often occur. Here, we report an extremely rare case of delayed biliary hemorrhage due to pseudoaneurysm rupture after EUS‐HGS, caused by ...

Scheduled Inside Plastic Stent Exchange Prevents Cholangitis and Reduces Unplanned Hospitalization in Patients With Unresectable Malignant Hilar Biliary Obstruction

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To prevent cholangitis in patients with unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO), we recently implemented scheduled inside plastic stent (IS) exchange every 2–4 months. This study aimed to evaluate whether this strategy prevents cholangitis onset and reduces unplanned hospitalizations without increasing adverse events.

A Novel Technique of Overtube‐assisted Ultrathin Endoscopic Biliary Drainage Using Multi‐Hole Self‐Expandable Metal Stents: A Case Report

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the standard procedure for biliary drainage; however, access can be challenging in patients with altered anatomy or tumor‐related distortion. Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) is a common alternative, yet it is not always feasible, particularly in patients with prior
