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...

Objective: The aim of this study was describe results assessment scales general movements in NBs first days life. Methods: In case-series, Hammersmith Neonatal Neurological Examination (HNNE) General Movements Assessment (GMA) were used evaluate under...
