This expert review provides crucial best practice guidance for managing ampullary adenomas, emphasizing improved endoscopic assessment and resection strategies to optimize patient outcomes.
A study assessing advanced techniques for difficult biliary cannulation shows they are similarly effective, challenging the notion of a superior method in ERCP.
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) significantly influences surgical decisions in cholangiocarcinoma by identifying new findings, leading to 10% of patients being excluded from curative-intent surgery.
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) effectively achieves en bloc resection of laterally spreading ampullary tumors, but significant recurrence remains a concern.
Endoscopic grading of gastric intestinal metaplasia (EGGIM) effectively identifies extensive disease with high sensitivity and specificity, enhancing patient risk stratification for surveillance.
ERCP is a highly effective and safe option for managing symptomatic cystic duct remnant stones in post-cholecystectomy patients, reducing the need for surgical excision.
This systematic review shows that Heller's myotomy and peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) outperform botulinum toxin for long-term symptom relief in primary achalasia.
Sphincter-sparing preclosure technique-assisted endoscopic papillectomy significantly reduces delayed bleeding and shortens hospital stays compared to conventional methods.
For high-risk patients with acute cholecystitis, conversion to endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage after percutaneous drainage achieved outcomes comparable to primary drainage.
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) is a safe and effective option for nonoperative candidates with symptomatic cholelithiasis without cholecystitis.
