Endoscopic Ultrasonography‐guided Variceal Therapy as Salvage Treatment for Rebleeding From Duodenal Varices Following Balloon‐occluded Retrograde Transvenous Obliteration

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Duodenal varices, though rare, are potentially life‐threatening complications of portal hypertension. Management is challenging when balloon‐occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) fails to achieve complete obliteration. Endoscopic ultrasonography‐guided variceal therapy (EUS‐VT) is effective for gastric varices, but reports of ...

Endoscopic Step‐up Approach for Walled‐off Necrosis After Acute Pancreatitis

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This review outlines current interventional strategies for treating symptomatic walled‐off necrosis (WON) after necrotizing pancreatitis. Mortality from acute pancreatitis has improved, but late mortality, particularly from infected necrosis, remains a challenge. WON requires invasive treatment in cases of infection or symptoms.

Efficacy of Endoscopic Ultrasound‐guided Transluminal Drainage Using Lumen‐apposing Metal Stents for the Treatment of Pancreatic Fluid Collections

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) are able to develop secondary to either fluid leakage or liquefaction of acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic trauma, or after pancreatic surgery. While most PFCs resolve spontaneously, endoscopic procedures are sometimes necessary.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Extrahepatic Portal Vein Obstruction—A Nationwide Registry‐Based Follow‐Up Study From 1987 to 2023

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO) is among the main causes of childhood portal hypertension. We analysed nationwide long‐term outcomes of EHPVO in relation to various management options. Methods In total, 62 consecutive patients with EHPVO diagnosed between 1987 and 2023 were followed up through hospital records ...

Reprogramming Tumor Cell Death via Processing Natural Drug to Carbon Dots Overcomes Collagen Barrier and Activates Antitumor Immunity

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 24, 23 March 2026.
A traditional Chinese medicine‐derived carbon dots nanoplatform reprograms tumor cell death from apoptosis to necroptosis, dismantling therapy‐induced collagen barriers and promoting immunogenic death. pH‐responsive hydrogel assembled from carbon dots for localized delivery, this strategy suppresses primary tumors and metastasis, offering a new ...

Unraveling the Complexities of Kartagener's Syndrome: A Case of Bronchiectasis, Isolated Dextrocardia, and Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia in an Adult With Chronic Respiratory Symptoms

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Kartagener's Syndrome (KS), a rare autosomal recessive disorder and a subset of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), is characterized by chronic sinusitis, bronchiectasis, and, in approximately 50% of cases, situs inversus. This condition arises from genetic mutations that impair motile cilia function, leading to defective mucociliary clearance ...
