Transpapillary biliary drainage using anti‐reflux metal stents (ARMS) and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) are two different strategies for this condition.

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

ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic full‐thickness resection (EFTR) is an effective treatment method for gastric submucosal tumors (SMTs). We aimed to perform a technical analysis of EFTR in gastric SMT and compare it with the outcome parameters. Method Sixty‐one gastric SMTs from 60 patients were resected using EFTR. The indication criteria: size, 11–30 mm,
