1: ESGE recommends the use of endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) over percutaneous transhepatic (PTBD) after failed retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in malignant distal obstruction when local expertise is available.Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. 2: suggests EUS-BD with hepaticogastrostomy only for inoperable hilar a dilated left hepatic duct inadequately drained by ERCP and/or PTBD high volume expert centers.Weak 3: that EUS-guided pancreatic...
<b>Background and study aims:</b> Type III achalasia is characterized by rapidly propagating pressurization attributable to spastic contractions. Although laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM) the current gold standard management for type achalasia, peroral endoscopic (POEM) conceivably superior because it allows a longer myotomy. Our aims were compare efficacy safety of POEM with LHM patients. <b>Patients methods:</b> A retrospective 49 patients who underwent across eight centers compared 26 at...
Abstract Background and study aims The variables associated with gastroesophageal reflux (GER) after peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) are largely unknown. This aimed to: 1) identify the prevalence of esophagitis asymptomatic GER in patients who underwent POEM, 2) evaluate patient intraprocedural post-POEM GER. Patients methods All POEM subsequent objective testing for (pH or without upper gastrointestinal [GI] endoscopy) at seven tertiary academic centers (one Asian, two US, four European)...
1: ESGE recommends a prolonged course of prophylactic broad-spectrum antibiotic in patients with ascites who are undergoing therapeutic endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) procedures.Strong recommendation, low quality evidence. 2: placement partially or fully covered self-expandable metal stents during EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy for biliary drainage malignant disease.Strong moderate 3: pancreatic duct (PD) should only be performed high volume expert centers, owing to the complexity this...
Background & AimsEndoscopic ultrasound–guided choledochoduodenostomy with a lumen-apposing metal stent (EUS-CDS) is promising modality for management of malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) potential better patency. We compared its outcomes endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography stenting (ERCP-M).MethodsIn this multicenter randomized controlled trial, we recruited patients MDBO secondary to borderline resectable, locally advanced, or unresectable peri-ampullary cancers across...
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) in malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) appears to be promising; however, its role benign GOO is unclear. The aim of this study was ascertain the clinical efficacy and safety EUS-GE GOO.This an international retrospective series involving 5 tertiary centers. Consecutive patients who underwent between 1/2013 - 10/2016 for were included. primary endpoint rate success defined as ability tolerate oral intake without vomiting....
<b>Background and study aims:</b> How enteroscopy-assisted ERCP (e-ERCP) endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) compare in patients with surgically altered upper gastrointestinal anatomy is currently unknown. The aims of this were to efficacy safety both techniques predictors these outcomes. <b>Patients methods: </b>This was an international, multicenter comparative cohort at 10 tertiary centers. Outcomes data included technical success (biliary access cholangiography stent...
Abstract Background and aims Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients who have undergone Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is technically challenging. We describe our multicenter experience using lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMSs) to create an endoscopic ultrasound-guided transgastric fistula (EUS-TG) facilitate peroral ERCP these patients. Patients methods Thirteen with RYGB underwent EUS-TG at three tertiary centers were included. EUS was used guide puncture of the...
Background: Endoscopic ultrasound–guided gallbladder drainage (EGBD) with a lumen apposing metal stent is becoming widely accepted alternative to percutaneous (PTGD) for patients who are not candidates cholecystectomy (CCY). In some patients, medical comorbidites can improve, allowing them undergo CCY. We compare feasibility and outcomes of interval CCY after EGBD versus PTGD. Methods: conducted multicentered international cohort study underwent or PTGD then Baseline patient demographics,...
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has emerged as an alternative to traditional radiologic and surgical procedures after failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). However, prospective multicenter data are lacking. The aims of this study were prospectively assess the short- long-term efficacy safety EUS-BD in patients with malignant distal obstruction.Consecutive at 12 tertiary centers (5 US, 5 European, 1 Asian, South American) obstruction ERCP...
Background and study aims The aim of the current was to review outcomes a large-scale international registry on endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EGBD) that encompasses different stent systems in patients who are at high-risk for cholecystectomy. Patients methods This retrospective multicenter EGBD created by 13 institutions around world. Consecutive received several indications were included. Outcomes include technical clinical success, unplanned procedural events (UPE),...
Abstract Background Afferent loop syndrome (ALS) is traditionally managed surgically and, more recently, endoscopically. The role of endoscopic ultrasound-guided entero-enterostomy (EUS-EE) has not been well described. aim this study was to assess the technical and clinical success safety EUS-EE. Methods This a multicenter, retrospective series at six centers in patients with ALS treated by Data on enteroscopy-assisted luminal stenting (EALS) single center were also collected. Results 18...
Abstract Background and study aims Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is traditionally managed with surgical gastroenterostomy (surgical-GE) enteral stenting (ES). Endoscopic ultrasound-guided (EUS-GE) now a third option. Large studies assessing their relative risks benefits adequate follow-up are lacking. We conducted comparative analysis of patients who underwent EUS-GE, ES, or surgical-GE for GOO. Patients methods In this retrospective cohort study, consecutive presenting GOO at two...
We aimed to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) model for detecting neoplastic lesions during real-time digital single-operator cholangioscopy (DSOC) and clinically validate the through comparisons with DSOC expert nonexpert endoscopists.In this two-stage study, we first developed validated CNN1. Then, performed multicenter diagnostic trial compare four experts nonexperts against an improved (CNN2). Lesions were classified into non-neoplastic in accordance Carlos Robles-Medranda...
