- Abstract
Background and Aims: Pathologic evaluation of bile duct lesions is crucial for a definitive diagnosis and determination of an appropriate therapeutic strategy; however, current methods are limited by several challenges. This study evaluated the impact of a novel tapered-tip sheath system on biliary stricture diagnosis., Methods: This observational study evaluated 47 consecutive patients who underwent transpapillary biliary stricture biopsy using the novel tapered-tip sheath system from July 2020 to March 2022 compared with 51 historical control subjects undergoing conventional biopsies. Technical success rate, total biopsy time, number of biopsy specimens, adequate tissue sampling rate, adverse events, and diagnostic performance for biliary strictures were assessed., Results: The technical success rate was favorable in both groups, showing no significant difference (97.9% [46 of 47] vs 88.2% [45 of 51], P = .114). However, the total biopsy time was significantly shorter in the novel system group (3.7 vs 7.7 minutes, P < .001). The number of biopsy specimens did not differ between the groups; however, the novel system group had significantly more cases in which ≥3 tissue samples could be obtained (71.7% [33 of 46] vs 51.1% [23 of 45], P = .043), a higher adequate tissue sampling rate (88.2% vs 66.4%, P < .001), and fewer adverse events (6.4% vs 21.6%, P = .043). Although the diagnostic specificity of both groups was 100%, the novel system group had significantly higher diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy (82.1% vs 50% [P = .004] and 84.8% vs 55.5% [P = .005], respectively)., Conclusions: The novel tapered-tip sheath system is a promising tool for biliary stricture diagnosis., (Copyright © 2023 American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy.

- Abstract
Background and Aim: Pathological evaluation is essential for the diagnosis of biliary tract diseases. However, existing evaluation methods have various challenges in terms of operability and diagnostic performance. The present study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, utility, and safety of a novel device delivery system for bile duct biopsy., Methods: This study was conducted as a retrospective, descriptive analysis at a single center. Overall, 25 examinations in 14 consecutive patients who underwent transpapillary biopsies for biliary lesions using the novel device delivery system from July to November 2020 were reviewed. Number and time of biopsy, technical success rate, adequate tissue sampling rate, adverse events, and diagnostic performance of bile duct biopsies using the novel device were evaluated. Moreover, negative surgical margins were assessed in patients who underwent surgical resection after mapping biopsy., Results: The median number of biopsy samples was five (range: 2-13), with a median biopsy time of 11.6 min. The technical success rate was 100% (140/140), with an adequate sampling rate of 82.9% (116/140). These rates did not differ depending on the biopsy site or purpose. There were no serious adverse events related to the procedures. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of biliary stricture were 90%, 100%, and 92.3%, respectively. Negative surgical margins were confirmed in all patients undergoing surgical resection, including one patient with a surgical procedure changed based on the results of mapping biopsy., Conclusions: The novel device delivery system has potentials in diagnosing biliary tract diseases and determining appropriate treatment strategies., (© 2022 Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Foundation and John Wiley & Sons Australia, Ltd.)

- Abstract
Background: Few reports have evaluated the effectiveness of laser-cut, covered, self-expandable metal stents (LC-CSEMS) for unresectable malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO) and whether reintervention is feasible after placement. We describe our experience with LC-CSEMS placement for unresectable MDBO., Methods: Patients undergoing LC-CSEMS placement for unresectable MDBO from November 2014 to December 2018 were reviewed. Recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO), median time to RBO (TRBO), and reintervention were analyzed., Results: 52 patients who underwent LC-CSEMS placement for unresectable MDBO were included in the analysis. The RBO rate was 15 % and the median TRBO was 445 days. Reintervention was attempted in nine patients and stent removal was successful in eight patients., Conclusions: Our experience suggests the effectiveness of LC-CSEMS in patients with unresectable MDBO in terms of stent patency and feasibility of reintervention., Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest., (© Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.)

- Abstract
Background and Study Aims: Biliary complications are one of the most serious morbidities after liver transplantation. Inside-stent is a plastic stent placed above the sphincter of Oddi without endoscopic sphincterotomy against biliary strictures. Our aims were to analyze the long-term efficacy of inside-stent placement in patients with biliary stricture after living donor liver transplantation., Patients and Methods: Ninety-four patients who experienced biliary stricture that employed duct-to-duct reconstruction were treated with inside-stent placement. Treatment outcomes, including stricture resolution, recurrence, inside-stent patency, and morbidity rate were evaluated retrospectively., Results: Ninety-two patients could be evaluated. Resolution of stricture was eventually observed in 81 of 92 patients with an average of 1.4 sessions of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography. Of the 81 patients who achieved the resolution of the stricture, recurrent biliary stricture that required intervention occurred in 8 patients. Conversely, stricture remission was achieved 73 patients (90.1 %) during 53 months follow-up after stent removal. Median duration of patency of the initial stent was 189 (range 2-1228) days. Stent dislocation occurred in 10 patients. Adverse event related to inside-stent placement was pancreatitis in 18 cases (mild 13, moderate 5)., Conclusions: Inside-stent placement achieved long-term patency and high remission rate in patients with biliary stricture after liver transplantation.
