Check out our new classification of LAMS misdeployment during EUS GE published in Digestive Endoscopy. This classification includes all contingencies and also guides as to where endoscopic rescue is feasible @GIE_Journal @JoanB_Gornals @GVanell5 @DrLakhtakia @docdhir @amolbapaye
A misdeployed stent during EUS-GE used to mean one thing. Call the surgeon.
Not anymore. Our updated classification in Digestive Endoscopy maps each type to an endoscopic rescue. Surgery moves ⬇️ the list.

Nice demonstration of ‘push technique’ for deploying Axios inner flange in *small spaces*:
➡️ unlock BOTH catheter lock & stent deployment hub
➡️ stabilize stent deployment hub against chest with two fingers
➡️ push Axios forward, keeping stent deployment hub *fixed in position*

Five friends Dario, Stefano Baraldo, Geri & Yu Ting Kuo from 5 countries bonded together since WISE 2018. We have come so far and will go very far. Very happy to share that we have decoded and simplified liver anatomy with linear EUS. sciencedirect.com/.../pii/S2…

EUS Live .. amazing to see the connectivity across the USA and the world..
Here an EUS performed by a German expert live. A calcified lesion in a pancreatic cyst is found & reviewed by the expert panel & Suresh Chari calls in to help as well 300+ learn live

🚨 🚨 Huge news today in the world of endoscopic bariatric therapy as national insurance carrier, Cigna, has updated their coverage policy to cover ESG. Are we entering a endobariatic world less reliant on self-pay for ESG?

Thanks @taewoongmedical for highlighting EUS-RFA program @WVUMedSchool EUS-RFA has significantly expanded our ability to treat pancreatic tumors and manage cancer-related pain with highly precise ablation under real-time EUS guidance @wvudeptofmed
Blog post ⬇️
taewoongusa.com/advancing-ca…
We're proud to highlight the incredible work of Dr. Shailendra Singh @shailsingh of West Virginia University, who is helping redefine treatment pathways for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), insulinomas, pancreatic adenocarcinoma and cancer related intractable pain, using Endoscopic Ultrasound–Guided Radiofrequency Ablation (EUS-RFA).
“This noble device enables highly precise ablation under real-time EUS guidance... an important addition to our therapeutic EUS capabilities,” says Dr. Singh.
Real-World Case: Dr. Singh successfully treated an 80-year-old patient with a functional pancreatic insulinoma using EUS-RFA. The patient, ineligible for surgery due to severe comorbidities, experienced immediate symptom resolution and sustained clinical improvement, highlighting the power of this minimally invasive approach.
Dr. Singh recently presented pilot data on EUS-RFA for pain control at DDW 2025, reinforcing its potential for high-risk patients and palliative care.

Thank you @KDevaniMD for visiting us and helping us start suturing. And was definitely enjoyable to do those eus hgs cases with you.
Thank you for warm hospitality, enjoyed teaching suturing and interacting with such enthusiastic fellows! Had a great experience learning HGS from @drsridhars at @TataMemorial, among the highest-volume HGS centers globally. His pioneering work sets 🚀standards in therapeutic EUS

One of the most common questions asked by our patients and referring MDs: does endoscopic gastric remodeling (EGR) worsen acid reflux?
Our study showed the opposite! EGR is associated with improved reflux symptoms and reduced PPI use. #Obesity #GERD

Check out this multicenter data from our group in India on predictors of reintervention after eus cds. Unlike the west where LAMS is used predominantly, tubular stents remain popular in India. @JoanB_Gornals @DouglasAdlerMD @SChandanMD @amolbapaye
