Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Coaxial double-pigtail plastic stent (DPPS) placement is often performed within lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMSs) for drainage of pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) to prevent adverse events (AEs) such as stent occlusion and bleeding. This study compares the safety and outcomes of LAMSs alone versus LAMSs with coaxial DPPSs for PFC management. METHODS Patients undergoing drainage of a PFC with LAMSs were retrospectively identified and categorized as LAMS or LAMS/DPPS based on initial drainage strategy. The AE rate, AE type, and clinical success were extracted by chart review. RESULTS One hundred eighty-five individuals (83 LAMS, 102 LAMS/DPPS) were identified. No significant differences were found in rates of clinical success (75.9% LAMS vs 69.6% LAMS/DDPS, P = .34) or overall AEs (15.7% LAMS vs 15.7% LAMS/DPPS, P = .825). CONCLUSIONS In this comparative single-center study, placement of a coaxial DPPS for drainage of PFCs with LAMSs did not affect rates of AEs or clinical success.

Abstract
Background and Aims Percutaneous gallbladder drainage has traditionally been the reference standard treatment for cholecystitis in patients deemed unfit for surgery. Endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage has emerged as a reliable alternative that offers an internal, incisionless option in nonsurgical patients. The aim of this study was to describe techniques for successful selective cystic duct cannulation and gallbladder drainage during ERCP. Methods A series of endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder procedures is shown, including endoscopic and fluoroscopic video and images. Each case highlights best practices, devices, and techniques to aid with successful completion of challenging cases. Results Standard cystic duct cannulation and gallbladder access is described using a standard catheter and a 0.035-inch angled guidewire. Challenges to selective cystic duct cannulation are overcome using various approaches, including using a rotatable catheter system, downsizing to a smaller guidewire, occluding the proximal common hepatic duct with an occlusion balloon, and directly intubating the cystic duct using peroral cholangioscopy. Dilation of the cystic duct is performed using standard devices designed for biliary intervention, but smaller, percutaneous angioplasty balloons are used for small ducts and severe strictures. After dilation, a plastic, double-pigtail stent is deployed across the papilla, and access is reobtained in a similar fashion to place a second, parallel stent. To eliminate the need to re-access the gallbladder after initial stent deployment, a cytology brush catheter is repurposed to obtain dual-wire access within the gallbladder before initial stent deployment. Conclusions When the fundamentals of ERCP and the techniques described here are used, endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage can be performed safely and effectively to treat cholecystitis in patients who are not surgical candidates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Self-expandable metal stents (SEMSs) are widely used for palliation of distal malignant biliary obstruction (dMBO). However, previous studies comparing the outcomes between uncovered SEMSs (UCSEMSs) and fully covered SEMSs (FCSEMSs) report conflicting results. This large cohort study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes between UCSEMSs and FCSEMSs for dMBO. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed in patients with dMBO who underwent either UCSEMS or FCSEMS placement between May 2017 and May 2021. Primary outcomes were rates of clinical success, adverse events (AEs), and unplanned endoscopic reintervention. Secondary outcomes were types of AEs, intervention-free stent patency, and management and outcomes of stent occlusion. RESULTS The cohort included 454 patients (364 in the UCSEMS group and 90 in the FCSEMS group). Median follow-up duration was 9.6 months and was similar between the 2 groups. Use of UCSEMSs and FCSEMSs had comparable clinical success (P = .250). However, use of UCSEMSs had significantly higher rates of AEs (33.5% vs 21.1%; P = .023) and unplanned endoscopic reintervention (27.0% vs 11.1%; P = .002). UCSEMSs had a higher rate of stent occlusion (26.9% vs 8.9%; P < .001) and shorter median time to stent occlusion (4.4 months vs 10.7 months; P = .002). Stent reintervention-free survival was higher in the FCSEMS group. FCSEMSs had a significantly higher rate of stent migration (7.8% vs 1.1%; P < .001), but patients in the FCSEMS group had similar rates of cholecystitis (.3% vs 1.1%; P = .872) and post-ERCP pancreatitis (6.3% vs 6.6%; P = .90). When UCSEMSs did occlude, placement of a coaxial plastic stent had a higher rate of stent reocclusion compared with coaxial SEMS placement (46.7% vs 19.7%; P = .007). CONCLUSION FCSEMSs should be considered for the palliation of dMBO because of lower rates of AEs, longer patency rates, and lower rates of unplanned endoscopic intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-operative pancreatic fluid collections (POPFCs) can be drained using percutaneous or endoscopic approaches. The primary aim of this study was to compare rates of clinical success between endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage (EUSD) with percutaneous drainage (PTD) in the management of symptomatic POPFCs after distal pancreatectomy. Secondary outcomes included technical success, total number of interventions, time to resolution, rates of adverse events (AEs), and POPFC recurrence. METHODS Adults who underwent distal pancreatectomy from January 2012 to August 2021 and developed symptomatic POPFC in the resection bed were retrospectively identified from a single academic center database. Demographic data, procedural data, and clinical outcomes were abstracted. Clinical success was defined as symptomatic improvement and radiographic resolution without requiring an alternate drainage modality. Quantitative variables were compared using a two-tailed t-test and categorical data were compared using Chi-squared or Fisher's exact tests. RESULTS Of 1046 patients that underwent distal pancreatectomy, 217 met study inclusion criteria (median age 60 years, 51.2% female), of whom 106 underwent EUSD and 111 PTD. There were no significant differences in baseline pathology and POPFC size. PTD was generally performed earlier after surgery (10 vs. 27 days; p < 0.001) and more commonly in the inpatient setting (82.9% vs. 49.1%; p < 0.001). EUSD was associated with a significantly higher rate of clinical success (92.5% vs. 76.6%; p = 0.001), fewer median number of interventions (2 vs. 4; p < 0.001), and lower rate of POPFC recurrence (7.6% vs. 20.7%; p = 0.007). AEs were similar between EUSD (10.4%) and PTD (6.3%, p = 0.28), with approximately one-third of EUSD AEs due to stent migration. CONCLUSION In patients with POPFCs after distal pancreatectomy, delayed drainage with EUSD was associated with higher rates of clinical success, fewer interventions, and lower rates of recurrence than earlier drainage with PTD.

Abstract
Background Reports suggest that the rate of adverse events (AEs) post-endoscopic sphincterotomy (ES) to be as high as 10%, with gastrointestinal bleeding being most common after post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis. Objective The aim of this study was to characterize the incidence of bleeding in patients with thrombocytopenia following ES. Design Retrospective observational cohort study. Methods Patients with thrombocytopenia (defined as <150,000 platelets/μL) who underwent ES between May 2017 and December 2020 were identified at a tertiary care medical center. The incidence of immediate (intraprocedural oozing >5 min or requiring intervention) or delayed (clinical bleeding with associated hemoglobin drop within 14 days) post-ES bleeding was determined via manual chart review. Results A total of 221 patients with a mean platelet count of 108,000 ± 13,000 platelets/μL underwent ERCP with ES. Immediate bleeding occurred in 11 (5%) patients with no significant drop in hemoglobin or transfusion requirement. Two patients (0.9%), both of whom were noted to have immediate bleeding, also developed delayed bleeding. Presence of malignancy was associated with an increased risk of bleeding (36.4% versus 11.4%, p = 0.037) while platelet count was not. Conclusion In a cohort of patients with thrombocytopenia, rates of immediate and delayed bleeding are similar to previously reported AE rates of ES in the general patient population. Careful attention should be given to patients with a history of active malignancy as well as those who develop immediate bleeding as they appear to be at increased risk for bleeding complications.

Abstract
Background and study aims A percutaneous intragastric trocar (PIT) enables intraluminal use of laparoscopic tools and helps overcome traditional limitations of endoscopy. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of using a PIT to perform an anti-reflux stapling procedure. Materials and methods Trocars were placed in four animals and an articulating stapler was used to perform fundoplication under endoscopic guidance. Animals were monitored for 14 days post-procedure. Functional lumen imaging of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) was performed at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and at 14 days. Results The procedure was successful in all animals who survived to day 14 without distress or significant adverse events. Baseline EGJ distensibility was 5.0 ± 1.2 mm 2 /mmHg, 2.7 ± 0.7 mm 2 /mmHg post-procedurally, and 3.0 ± 0.8mm 2 /mmHg on day 14. Average change in distensibility pre- and post-procedure was -2.3 ± 1.8 mm 2 /mmHg (95 % confidence interval [CI] -0.5 to 5.1, P = 0.08) while change in pre- and day 14 distensibility was -2.0 ± 1.4 mm 2 /mmHg (95 % CI -0.1 to 4.2, P = 0.06). Conclusions An intragastric trocar allows for use of large-diameter laparoscopic instruments to safely and effectively perform endoluminal fundoplication with anti-reflux properties that persist for at least 14 days.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided main pancreatic duct (PD) access may be used when conventional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) techniques fail. The use of a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty balloon (PTAB), originally developed for vascular interventions, can be used to facilitate transmural (e.g., transgastric) PD access and to dilate high-grade pancreatic strictures.
AIM To describe the technique, efficacy, and safety of PTABs for EUS-guided PD interventions.
METHODS Patients who underwent EUS with use of a PTAB from March 2011 to August 2021 were retrospectively identified from a tertiary care medical center supply database. PTABs included 3-4 French angioplasty catheters with 3-4 mm balloons designed to use over a 0.018-inch guidewire. The primary outcome was technical success. Secondary outcomes included incidence of adverse events (AEs) and need for early reintervention.
RESULTS A total of 23 patients were identified (48% female, mean age 55.8 years). Chronic pancreatitis was the underlying etiology in 13 (56.5%) patients, surgically altered anatomy (SAA) with stricture in 7 (30.4%), and SAA with post-operative leak in 3 (13.0%). Technical success was achieved in 20 (87%) cases. Overall AE rate was 26% (n = 6). All AEs were mild and included 1 pancreatic duct leak, 2 cases of post-procedure pancreatitis, and 3 admissions for post-procedural pain. No patients required early re-intervention.
CONCLUSION EUS-guided use of PTABs for PD access and/or stricture management is feasible with an acceptable safety profile and can be considered in patients when conventional ERCP cannulation fails.

Abstract
Background and study aims The aim of this study was to assess long-term clinical outcomes beyond 6 years in patients who underwent per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for the treatment of achalasia. Patients and methods Patients with achalasia who underwent POEM between 2010 and 2012 and had follow-up of at least 6 years were retrospectively identified at eight tertiary care centers. The primary outcome evaluated was clinical success defined by an Eckardt symptom score (ESS) ≤ 3 for the duration of the follow-up period. The clinical success cohort was compared to failure (ESS > 3 at any time during follow-up) in order to identify characteristics associated with symptom relapse. The incidence of patient-reported gastroesophageal reflux (GER) was also evaluated. Results Seventy-three patients with 6-year follow-up data were identified. Sustained clinical remission was noted in 89 % (65/73) at 6-years. Mean ESS decreased from 7.1 ± 2.3 pre-procedure to 1.1 ± 1.1 at 6 years ( P < 0.001). Symptomatic reflux was reported by 27 of 72 patients (37.5 %). Type I achalasia (OR 10.8, P = 0.04) was found to be associated with clinical failure on logistic regression analysis. Conclusions In patients with achalasia, POEM provides high initial clinical success with excellent long-term outcomes. There are high rates of patient-reported gastroesophageal reflux post-procedure which persist at long-term follow-up.
