Abstract: Background In patients with acute cholecystitis who are deemed high risk for cholecystectomy, percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) was historically performed for gallbladder drainage (GBD). There are several limitations associated with PC. Endoscopic GBD [Endoscopic transpapillary GBD… read more here.

Abstract: A 56-year-old man with liver, peritoneal, and lymph node metastases after previous transthoracic esophagectomy was diagnosed with acute calculous cholecystitis. Transduodenal endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) was performed using a 10× 10mm cautery-enhanced lumen-apposing metal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/den.14391
Abstract: ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND‐GUIDED GALLBLADDER drainage (EUS-GBD) has been increasingly used for acute cholecystitis in high-risk surgical patients. Although good long-term outcomes have been reported for EUS-GBD, re-intervention is sometimes required because of stent occlusion and can… read more here.

Abstract: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) is an alternative to surgery for acute cholecystitis (AC) in poor operative candidates. However, the role of EUS-GBD in non-cholecystitis (NC) indications has not been well studied. We compared the… read more here.

Abstract: The gold standard for treatment of acute cholecystitis is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. However, cholecystectomy is often not suitable for surgically unfit patients who are too frail due to various co-morbidities. As such, several less invasive endoscopic… read more here.
