Abstract:
Pyloric exclusion is a method of treatment for duodenal injury. Surgery is usually needed to restore digestive continuity in due time, yet a new surgical procedure can be challenging due to fibrotic adhesion development. We present here a retrospective case series of three patients with pyloric exclusion who underwent endoscopic ultrasound-guided duodenal repermeabilization using metallic stents. All procedures were successful with no complication and allowed regular feeding. This case series shows that endoscopic ultrasound-guided recanalization is a feasible and safe procedure.
