Efficacy of Drainage Combining Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography With Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Biliary Drainage for Difficult‐to‐Control Cholangitis in Patients With Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Hilar cholangiocarcinoma often results in repeated early stent dysfunction and difficult‐to‐control cholangitis after drainage using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of additional drainage using endoscopic ultrasound‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) in patients with

Patient Characteristics and Outcomes of Endoscopically Placed Dedicated Transgastric Jejunal Tubes Compared to Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy With Jejunal Extension Tubes

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Patients requiring long‐term enteral nutrition or continuous infusion of carbidopa/levodopa can benefit from jejunostomy tube placement. Recently, directly placed percutaneous transgastric jejunal tubes (TGJs) have been used instead of gastrostomy tubes with jejunal extensions (PEG‐Js) for enteral access.

Comparison of Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Tissue Acquisition and Percutaneous Liver Biopsy for Diagnosing Focal Liver Lesions: A Retrospective Single‐Center Study

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Accurate diagnosis of focal liver lesions (FLLs) is crucial for determining the appropriate treatment strategies. Although percutaneous liver biopsy (PLB) is the standard diagnostic procedure, it has limitations, particularly for difficult‐to‐access lesions.
