Factors Affecting Clinical Course of Postoperative Bile Leakage and Efficacy of Endoscopic Biliary Drainage: A Multi‐Center Retrospective Cohort Study

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Introduction Bile leakage is one of the complications after hepatobiliary surgery, causing intra‐abdominal infections, and is sometimes difficult to treat. The purpose of our study was to investigate the factors related to severity and to evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic treatment.

Usefulness of a One‐step Semi‐deployment Flushing and Stenting Technique in Endoscopic Transpapillary Gallbladder Drainage for Acute Cholecystitis (With Video)

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder stenting (EGBS) has demonstrated high technical and clinical success rates in endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage (ETGBD) for acute cholecystitis. The effectiveness of a 5‐Fr endoscopic naso‐gallbladder drainage (ENGBD) tube for flushing and the internal fistula technique after tube ...

Efficacy and Safety of Multihole Partially Covered Self‐Expandable Metal Stents for Distal Malignant Biliary Obstruction: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Covered self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) are the standard for managing unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction (DMBO), as they prolong the time to recurrent biliary obstruction (TRBO). However, fully covered SEMS (FCSEMS) increases the risk of cholecystitis and pancreatitis.

Efficacy and Safety of a 6‐Month Placement of a Fully Covered Self‐Expanding Metal Stent for Refractory or Recurrent Hepaticojejunostomy Anastomotic Stricture via Balloon Enteroscopy‐Assisted Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Balloon enteroscopy‐assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (BE‐assisted ERCP) is performed for hepaticojejunostomy anastomotic stricture (HJAS) after biliary‐enteric anastomosis. Although endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) and plastic stent (PS) placement are commonly performed, they result in high recurrence rates ...

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

DEN 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.
