Abstract Purpose We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of temperature‐controlled intraductal radiofrequency ablation (ID‐RFA) for advanced malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO). Methods Patients were randomly assigned RFA group (ID‐RFA bilateral plastic stent [PS]) or non‐RFA (bilateral PS) at a 1:1 ratio. Exchange self‐expanding metal (SEMS) was performed after 3 months when premature PS occlusion occurred. Total event‐free patency, overall survival (OS), adverse events (AEs)...
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Brush cytology is a widely used diagnostic method in conjunction with intraductal biopsies during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, but its yield remains limitation. This study evaluated the efficacy of biliary using newly developed brush device rapid on‐site cytological evaluation (ROSE) for detecting malignant strictures (MBSs). Methods In total, 58 patients suspected intrinsic MBS identified by ultrasound were enrolled. After achieving tissue...
Objectives Although fully covered self‐expandable metal stents (FCSEMS) are used for the management of anastomotic biliary stricture (ABS) after liver transplantation (LT), there is concern about long‐term adverse events such as recurrence stricture. We evaluated efficacy a modified nonflared FCSEMS (M‐FCSEMS) compared to plastic (PS) refractory ABS LT. Methods Consecutive patients who underwent placement an M‐FCSEMS (M‐FCSEMS group) or multiple PS (PS LT were enrolled. The primary outcome...
Abstract Background and Aim Endoscopic post‐papillectomy bleeding occurs in 3% to 20% of the cases, delayed is also problematic. However, there no consensus on how reduce bleeding. The aim this study was evaluate efficacy prophylactic argon plasma coagulation (APC) minimize persistence residual tumors after endoscopic papillectomy. Methods In a prospective pilot patients with benign ampullary tumors, APC group underwent at resection margin following conventional snaring Then, 24 h later...
The use of a self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) is recommended for unresectable malignant biliary obstruction (MBO). Stent-related adverse events might differ according to the position through ampulla Vater (AOV). We retrospectively evaluated SEMS patency and SEMS.In total, 280 patients who underwent endoscopic placement due distal were analyzed retrospectively. Suprapapillary transpapillary insertions performed on 51 229 patients, respectively.Between suprapapillary group (SPG) (TPG),...
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) using a lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) has rendered endoscopic assessment through possible, but an appropriate endoscope is required. We assessed the feasibility of peroral cholecystoscopy (POCC) multibending ultraslim passed LAMS after EUS-GBD.14 patients with for EUS-GBD who consecutively underwent POCC were included. was performed inserted LAMS. The primary outcome technical success rate, defined as complete examination from...
: Peroral cholangioscopy (POC) has been used to assess intrahepatic duct (IHD) lesions but with a limited role. A new multibending (MB) ultraslim endoscope designed improve POC performance. We evaluated the usefulness of using MB for management IHD lesions.

Abstract A clinical efficacy study of 0.025-inch guidewires (GWs) according to mechanical property analysis has not been reported yet. This was designed evaluate the a newly developed GW for biliary access basic property. Commercially available GWs were in vitro tested based on parameters Patients with naïve papilla requiring diagnostic or therapeutic ERCP randomly assigned an experimental control group. Technical success rate wire-guided cannulation (WGC), difficult (DBC), and adverse event...
Abstract Backgrounds and Aim Multiple insertions of self‐expandable metal stents (SEMS) for advanced malignant hilar obstruction (MHO) are now considered to be an effective palliative method adequate drainage liver volume. However, the efficacy endoscopic reintervention in technically clinically successful bilateral SEMS is limited. This study investigated revision patients who underwent MHO. Methods Primary using plastic or alternative percutaneous approach followed by secondary was...
Abstract Background and Aim Endoscopic management of a benign biliary stricture (BBS) on the hilum is complicated challenging. Although placement fully covered self‐expandable metal stent (FCSEMS) possible to increase effectiveness, migration stent‐induced adverse events are problematic. We aimed evaluate usefulness modified short FCSEMS with long lasso in patients difficult perihilar BBS. Methods Patients BBS within 2 cm from hilar confluence that failed initially plastic stents were...
Background/Aims: There are no definite guidelines for the management of gastric lesions diagnosed as indefinite dysplasia (IND) by endoscopic forceps biopsy (EFB). Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes IND and predictive factors neoplasm.Methods: This included 457 patients with a first diagnosis EFB between January 2005 December 2013. Patient characteristics pathological data were reviewed compared.Results: Of patients, 128 (28%) invasive carcinoma, 21 (4.6%) high-grade...
Treatment options for difficult bile duct stones are limited. Direct peroral cholangioscopy (POC)-guided lithotripsy may be an option. A newly developed multibending (MB) ultraslim endoscope has several structural features optimized direct POC. We evaluated the utility of POC using MB in patients with stones.Twenty stones, whom stone removal conventional endoscopic methods, including mechanical lithotripsy, had failed were enrolled from March 2018 to August 2019. POC-guided was performed by...
Endoscopic post-papillectomy bleeding is a serious adverse event with prevalence ranging from 2% to 45.3%. Conventional hemostatic methods, including diluted epinephrine injection before papillectomy or argon plasma coagulation after papillectomy, did not show preventive role in reducing immediate delayed bleeding. Therefore, we aimed assess the efficacy and safety of powder spray for compare those conventional modalities.Patients who underwent endoscopic were enrolled five tertiary...
Extrapulmonary manifestations of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection are not uncommon and involvement every organ system has been reported. However, association inflammatory myositis with M. is rare. Here, we describe a patient who developed polymyositis associated mycoplasma infection, was treated successfully glucocorticoid, intravenous immunoglobulin, methotrexate. Key words: Dermatomyositis; pneumoniae; Polymyositis
