Two main reasons for a failed EUS- guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HG) are, inability to access the bile ducts due to non-dilated intrahepatic ducts (IHD), and failure of tract dilation due to cirrhosis/ductal scarring or stent passage from misaligned vector forces…

Introduction: Adenoma per colonoscopy (APC) has recently been proposed as a quality measure for colonoscopy. We evaluated the impact of a novel AI system, compared to standard HD colonoscopy, for APC measurement…

Recently macroscopic-onsite evaluation (MOSE) technique for Endoscopic Ultrasound guided Tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) for solid gastrointestinal lesions has been advocated to provide high diagnostic accuracy in settings where rapid- onsite evaluation is not available…

INTRODUCTION: It is unclear whether the insertion of an axis-orienting double-pigtail plastic stent (DPS) through biliary lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) in EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (CDS) improves the stent patency…

EUS-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) is a novel method for palliating gastric outlet obstructon due to unresectable malignancies…

While endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided fine needle biopsy (FNB) is the preferred method of tissue acquisition for pancreatic solid lesions (PSL), false negative result may occur if FNB is performed in the avascular (necrotic) area…

EUS-GBD with lumen apposing stent (LAMS) has been included in ESGE and ASGE guidelines for acute calculous cholecystitis for patients who are unfit for surgery. Whether to perform cholecystoscopy for stone removal and LAMS removal, or the LAMS should be kept for long term is still a controversy…
