Aims In cases of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) failure in distal malignant obstruction, ultrasound-choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) is a safe and effective second-line option with benefits over percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD). We aim to demonstrate technical clinical success EUS-CDS benign obstruction as definitive treatment or facilitate an ERCP rendezvous procedure.
Aims 5F plastic pancreatic stents are recommended for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). However, these patients require further care post-procedure to confirm spontaneous stent passage and repeat endoscopy removal if migration has not occurred (in approximately 20%). The development a 6F biodegradable (BD) (Archimedes, Q3 Medical, Dublin, Ireland), which can be used same indications, removes need additional care. This study aimed evaluate cost implications pathway using...
Protein-losing gastroenteropathy is a rare syndrome of protein loss from the gastrointestinal system. It manifests with hypoproteinemic edema, which may be due to either lymphatic leakage increased interstitial pressure or protein-rich fluids intestinal disorders. Our case describes 65-year-old female life-threatening protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) requiring multiple transfers intensive care unit for vasopressor support. In this instance, her extensive initial workup did not reveal any...
