Interventions

  • Therapeutic EUS — PROCEDURE
    1. EUS-guided collection drainage (transgastric or transduodenal, performed by Lumen Apposing Metal Stents or double pigtail stents) and eventual endoscopic necrosectomy 2. EUS-guided biliary drainage (either of the extrahepatic or intrahepatic biliary tree / transduodenal or transgastric / either as access for subsequent rendez-vous or transpapillary stenting OR for transparietal stenting by metal or plastic stents). 3. EUS-guided gallbladder drainage via Lumen Apposing Metal Stents and eventual subsequent EUS-based cholecystolithotomy 4. EUS-guided gastro-jejunostomy through Lumen Apposing Metal Stents 5. EUS-directed ERCP in post-surgical anatomy (by gastro-gastrostomy or entero-enterostomy performed through Lumen Apposing Metal Stents) 6. EUS-guided pancreatic duct drainage
  • Percutaneous Procedures — PROCEDURE
    Procedures involving a percutaneous access to a target region (fluid collection, gallbladder, biliary tree)
  • Surgical Interventions — PROCEDURE
    Surgical interventions to obtain a drainage (e.g. surgical necrosectomy, pancreatico-gastrostomy) or the bypass of a stricture (hepatico-jejunostomy or gastro-jejunostomy)
  • non-EUS-based endoscopic procedures — PROCEDURE
    Other endoscopic procedures not involving EUS (ERCP with stenting; enteral stenting, Enteroscopy-assisted ERCP)

Study Details

This registry aims to analyze long-term outcomes of therapeutic EUS (T-EUS) procedures, as well as to describe clinical and technical variables potentially predicting clinical success or adverse events, for a better selection of ideal candidates. The study also includes standard alternatives to T-EUS procedures for outcomes comparison.

Arms

  • Arm: Therapeutic EUS
    Procedures involving Linear Echoendoscopes to create a communication between the gastrointestinal tract and a target organ (biliary tree, pancreatic duct, fluid collection, gallbladder, downstream gastrointestinal tract) through plastic or metal stents.
  • Arm: Controls
    Patients eligible for T-EUS procedures, but undergoing non-EUS based endoscopic procedures (e.g. ERCP or enteral stenting), surgical interventions or percutaneous interventions (e.g. Percutaneous Biliary Drainage)
