Lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) have emerged as a highly effective tool for endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage of pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs), such as pseudocysts and walled-off necrosis. This...
Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Gastrojejunostomy (EUS-GJ) is an innovative, minimally invasive procedure that has gained traction as a treatment for gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) due to duodenal stenosis caused by...
Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided ethanol injection (EUS-EI) is emerging as a promising, minimally invasive treatment for small pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNENs), particularly for patients seeking alternatives to surgery. This approach...
Surveillance for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is critical due to the high risk of hepatobiliary complications, including cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), gallbladder cancer, and liver failure, all of which significantly...
The optimal timing for lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) removal after EUS-guided drainage of pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) does not necessarily depend on a fixed timeline, such as early...
The study you referenced investigates the differences between portal and peripheral circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and their prognostic value. Here’s a detailed breakdown...
Patients with chronic pancreatitis face a significantly increased risk of developing pancreatic cancer compared to individuals without pancreatitis. According to the systematic review and meta-analysis, chronic pancreatitis is...
Risk factor analysis for survival prediction in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) focuses on identifying key clinical and biochemical parameters that influence patient outcomes. In the specific context of...
Biomarker testing in biliary tract cancer (BTC) has emerged as a critical tool for guiding precision therapy, improving treatment outcomes, and understanding the molecular landscape of this heterogeneous...
Both acalculus biliary pain and acalculus cholecystitis are conditions associated with the gallbladder but differ in their presentation, underlying mechanisms, and clinical significance. Below is a detailed breakdown:...
