Lumen-Apposing Metal Stents: Which One and Why?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Gastrointestinal endoscopy clinics of North America"
DOI: 10.1016/j.giec.2017.11.008
Abstract: Numerous lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) have been designed for transluminal applications, including complex pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) and difficult biliary access. Limited high-quality data exist directly comparing the various LAMS models, and their use remains… read more here.
