Journal ArticleDOI

Covered versus uncovered self-expandable metal stent for palliation of primary malignant extrahepatic biliary strictures: a randomized multicenter study

TL;DR: FCSEMSs had a significantly higher rate of migration than USEMSs, and stent occlusion occurred earlier, and a significant difference in the patency rate was observed in favor of the USEMS group.
Journal ArticleDOI

EUS-guided biliary drainage for patients with malignant biliary obstruction with an indwelling duodenal stent (with videos)

TL;DR: EUS-guided biliary drainage (EGBD) is an emerging less-invasive alternative after unsuccessful transpapillary biliary cannulation in patients with altered anatomy (eg, pancreaticoduodenectomy) and those with gastric outlet obstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stent-associated esophagorespiratory fistulas: incidence and risk factors.

TL;DR: SerF is a morbid complication of SES placement for strictures of the proximal and mid-esophagus and the dominant risk factors for development are prior radiation therapy and comorbidity score.
Journal ArticleDOI

Competence in Endoscopic Ultrasound and Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography, From Training Through Independent Practice

Sachin Wani, +77 more
- 01 Nov 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is found that although competence cannot be confirmed for all AETs at the end of training, most meet QI thresholds for EUS and ERCP at theend of their first year of independent practice, which affirms the effectiveness of training programs.
Journal ArticleDOI

EUS-guided hepaticoenterostomy as a portal to allow definitive antegrade treatment of benign biliary diseases in patients with surgically altered anatomy.

TL;DR: EUS-HE is safe and effective in the management of benign biliary obstruction in patients with surgically altered anatomy and is a viable alternative to other endoscopic methods in this patient population.
