What Did the Study Find? The EPoS trial randomized 10,799 patients with high-risk adenomas to first surveillance colonoscopy at 5 years or 3 years after polypectomy. At 5...
What Did the Study Find? This meta-analysis included 5 studies and 536 patients undergoing colonoscopic polypectomy while clopidogrel was either continued or temporarily interrupted. Temporary interruption reduced immediate...
What’s New? The FDA has granted 510(k) clearance to the Triton 1 robotic endoscopy system for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures throughout the colon. The platform is cleared for...
Introduction: The optimal endoscopic treatment for gastric varices remains uncertain. Conventional direct cyanoacrylate injection is widely used, while EUS-guided glue and coil-based therapies allow more targeted variceal treatment....
Introduction: EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy using lumen-apposing metal stents (EUS-CDS-L) is increasingly used for distal biliary obstruction, particularly after failed ERCP. As the technique moves from rescue therapy toward possible...
What Did the Study Find? This 7-center study evaluated EUS-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) in 46 patients with biopsy-proven nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NF-PanNETs), predominantly small, well-differentiated grade 1...
Introduction: Management of colonic strictures increasingly includes advanced endoscopic options that may avoid emergency surgery or repeated dilation. The new ASGE guideline provides practical recommendations for both malignant...
Introduction: Aggressive intravenous hydration can reduce post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP), with lactated Ringer’s (LR) commonly preferred. This trial tested whether an acetate-buffered balanced crystalloid provides better PEP prevention in...
Introduction: Colonoscopy quality traditionally focuses on bowel preparation, withdrawal technique, and increasingly AI-assisted detection. The EYE-SIGHT trial tested a different concept: whether changing the endoscopist’s visual-search pattern using...
Conventional Approach: GERD after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) can be difficult to manage because the fundus has been resected, gastric geometry is altered, and intragastric pressure may increase....
