The diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis remains challenging in early stages the disease. This report defines diagnostic criteria useful assessment patients with suspected and established pancreatitis. All current procedures are reviewed, evidence-based statements provided about their utility limitations. Diagnostic for classified as definitive, probable, or insufficient evidence. A (STEP-wise; survey, tomography, endoscopy, pancreas function testing) algorithm is proposed that proceeds from a...
<h3>Background</h3> Characteristic pancreatic duct changes on endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (ERP) have been described in autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). The performance characteristics of ERP to diagnose AIP were determined. <h3>Methods</h3> study was done two phases. In phase I, 21 physicians from four centres Asia, Europe and the USA, unaware clinical data or diagnoses, reviewed 40 preselected ERPs patients with (n=20), chronic (n=10) cancer (n=10). Physicians noted presence absence...
There are well-established methods for treating gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, although some lesions prove refractory to conventional techniques. Little consideration has been directed toward the use of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in management bleeding.To discuss patient selection, technique, and clinical outcomes EUS-guided angiotherapy severe bleeding after therapies.The EUS database was reviewed identify all patients who underwent EUS-directed angiotherapy.Five patients, four with from...
Presence of malignant regional lymph nodes (MRLNs) precludes curative oncological resection or liver transplantation for cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Limited data support the utility endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)/fine needle aspiration (FNA) detection MRLNs in extrahepatic CCA, but there are no its role intrahepatic CCA (iCCA). The aim this study is to evaluate staging impact EUS including analysis by subtype.We identified consecutive patients with who underwent at a single tertiary care center...
Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) and EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CD) are alternate therapies to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with stent placement for decompression. The primary outcome of this study is compare the technical clinical success PTBD EUS-CD in patients distal obstruction. Secondary outcomes were adverse events (AEs), need reintervention, survival.A multicenter retrospective cohort from three different centers was performed. Cox...
