Retrospective multicentric study comparing surgical and endoscopic gastroenterostomy for gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) revealed similar technical and clinical success rates, post-procedure outcomes, and mortality between the two procedures. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) showed advantages such as shorter procedure duration, lower complications, and shorter hospital stay. Findings suggest EUS-GE as an effective alternative to surgical gastroenterostomy for GOO management, especially in experienced centers.
