“…Often these patients are frail and malnourished with disseminated disease, a limited palliative Braun entero-entero bypass surgery is preferred over resection and reconstruction of the gastrojejunal anastomosis. 5 In summary, in this case, based on the preoperative imaging findings from the positrion emission tomography (PET) scan and CT scans (dilated proximal small bowel loops to the gastroenterostomy with dilated hepaticojejunostomy and intrahepatic ducts) and clinical presentation of cholangitis, it was clear that the metastatic disease at the anterior abdominal wall adjacent to the GJ was causing ALS. Least invasive procedures such as endoscopic stenting should first be attempted but failed in this instance.…”

“…Case series also report successful reconstructions using this LAMS technique in postsurgical situations, such as afferent limb syndrome (Fig. 6) [108,109] or ileocolonostomy for small bowel obstruction [110,111]. Currently, the evidence for EUS-GE is still sparse with large prospective studies and randomized studies comparing the technique with duodenal stenting and surgical gastrojejunostomy lacking.…”

Purpose of review To update on recent advances in interventional endoscopic ultrasound (INVEUS) techniques. Recent findings The introduction of linear echoendoscopes with larger instrument channels and the combined development of new tools and devices have enabled various new applications of minimally invasive endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided transluminal interventions of the pancreas, biliary system and peri-gastrointestinal structures. In this review, EUS-guided interventions are discussed and evaluated: drainage of peripancreatic fluid collections, access and drainage of bile ducts, gallbladder and pancreatic duct, treatment of gastrointestinal haemorrhage, coeliac plexus block and coeliac plexus neurolysis, fiducial placement, solid and cystic tumour ablation, drug delivery and brachytherapy, gastroenterostomy, angiotherapy and other EUS-guided applications. The EUS-guided interventions are classified based on the available evidence as established or experimental, standardized or nonstandardized procedures in common or rare diseases with well or little known complications and their established or nonestablished treatment. Summary Some EUS-guided interventions have sparse published evidence with only single-centre studies, case series or individual case reports, others like drainage of peripancreatic fluid collections have become widely accepted practice. INVEUS has been accepted as an alternative to several surgical approaches, EUS-guided techniques result in faster recovery times, shorter hospital stay and lower costs.
