Background. Accurate diagnosis and clinical management of indeterminate biliary strictures are often a challenge. Tissue confirmation modalities during Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) suffer from low sensitivity poor diagnostic accuracy. Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) has been shown to be sensitive for malignant characterization (98%) but lacks specificity (67%) due inflammatory conditions inducing false positives. Methods. Six pCLE experts validated...
ABSTRACT Chronic octreotide use has been associated with gallstone formation. Historically, cholecystectomy the defining treatment for those who have gallstone-related disease. For are poor surgical candidates, percutaneous and endoscopic approaches used. We describe management of a 74-year-old man significant burden sequelae because chronic metastatic neuroendocrine tumor through ultrasound-guided cholecystoduodenostomy extraction using lumen-apposing metal stents.
Endoscopic strip craniectomy with helmeting (ESCH) has been shown to be a safe and efficacious alternative fronto-orbital remodeling (FOR) for selected children craniosynostosis. In addition clinical factors, there may economic benefits from the use of ESCH instead FOR.A retrospective review 23 patients nonsyndromic unicoronal craniosynostosis (UCS) treated FOR was carried out at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) Children in London, UK. Secondary data were used cohort paper published by...
Endoscopic-ultrasound (EUS)-guided biliary drainage is a therapeutic option for patients with pathology and altered gastrointestinal anatomy in whom conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has failed [1] [2] [3]. We present the case of patient undergoing EUS-guided choledochojejunostomy fully covered, lumen-apposing metal stent ([Video 1]).
Purpose: Web-based monitoring of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) symptoms has been shown to increase medical adherence. Smart devices (SD), such as smart phones and tablets, allow users download many health-related apps. The use SD increased, we conducted a randomized trial determine if mobile symptom tracking app improves QoL in IBD patients. Methods: Patients with access (iPhone®/iPad®/iPod touch® or AndroidTM) were eligible participate. Blackberry® excluded the was not fully optimized...
