Endoscopic Management for Stricture and Leakage
نویسنده
چکیده
Gastrointestinal perforation, anastomotic leak, stricture and fistula remain a therapeutic challenge because open surgical approaches have been associated with high rates of morbidity, mortality, and repeat recurrences. Various endoscopic technique using tissue adhesives, electrocautery, sclerosants, stenting, clipping and OTSC have been reported. Now we introduce these methods for management of gastrointestinal stricture and leakage.

MESSAGE Lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) have been recently developed to improve treatment outcomes in the endoscopic management of pancreatic fluid collections (PFC), particularly in walled-off necrosis (WON), to facilitate better drainage of necrotic contents and minimise the risk of perforation and peritoneal leakage. In an ongoing randomised trial, we observed serious adverse events that ...
