DOI: 10.1002/dc.25153
Abstract: Endoscopic ultrasound enables visualization of lesions within and in the vicinity of the gastrointestinal tract. Endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration cytology (EUS‐FNAC) helps in targeting various luminal and extraluminal lesions both diagnostically and therapeutically.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/dc.25175
Abstract: BACKGROUND Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided tissue acquisition is the preferred modality for diagnosing pancreatic lesions and mediastinal and abdominal lymph nodes. Rapid on-site cytologic evaluation improves the diagnostic outcome of EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) but is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jhbp.904
Abstract: EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has been indicated for benign biliary strictures [1-3], suggesting that hepaticojejunostomy stricture (HJS) can also be treated under EUS guidance. However, the intrahepatic bile duct is sometimes much narrower in cases… read more here.

Abstract: The incident of post-pancreaticojejunostomy anastomotic stricture has been reported about 5%1) . Endoscopic trans-anastomotic drainage using balloon-assisted enteroscopy (BAE) is the initial management option for this adverse event in most cases. However, the success rate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2017.01.026
Abstract: Because the number of EUS-BD procedures should be ideally increased in failed ERCP even in high-volume centers of interventional EUS, immediate mastery of EUS-BD may be difficult. Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) was a landmark… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2017.03.014
Abstract: Because, as this study shows, most ganglia are lateral to the celiac axis, the most appropriate intervention for the control group in a randomized trial is bilateral CPN. Until a study comparing CGN with bilateral… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) using conventional tubular stents has been successfully performed. However, EUS-CDS carries a high risk of bile leakage with attendant adverse events. This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the long-term… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Small hepatic masses often do not have distinct margins on B-mode EUS images. Contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS (CEH-EUS) is widely used for evaluating ambiguous pancreatic lesions. However, its role in detecting hepatic lesions… read more here.
