Endoscopic ultrasound-directed transgastric ERCP in patients with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass using lumen-apposing metal stents or duodenal self-expandable metal stents. A European single-center experience
2020
INTRODUCTION: endoscopic ultrasound-directed transgastric ERCP is emerging in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. METHODS: a review of 14 consecutive patients. RESULTS: fourteen EUS-directed gastro-gastrostomy/gastro-jejunostomy were performed using lumen-apposing metal stents or duodenal self-expandable metal stents. Single-session ERCP was successful in 9/12 cases and deferred procedures or follow-up in 6/7 cases. Papillary access was obtained in all cases. Dislodgment occurred in 4/19 patients and was handled successfully endoscopically. Transgastric stents were removed after a median of 30 days. No recurrence/fistula were noted after a median of 256 days post-removal. CONCLUSIONS: duodenal self-expandable and lumen-apposing metal stents can be used for single-deferred endoscopic ultrasound-directed transgastric ERCP in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
