EUS-guided gastrojejunostomy (EUS-GJ) has emerged as a safe and effective alternative for the palliative management of malignant gastric outlet obstruction.

Although endoscopic procedures are safe, they carry a risk of perforation, which can manifest severe adverse events for patients if not managed expediently.

An 87-year-old woman with chronic renal insufficiency and coronary artery disease on clopidogrel was found to have a sizable adenomatous gastric polyp.

Iatrogenic perforation of the duodenum caused by biliary stents is a rare adverse event of ERCP.

Cholangiocarcinoma is a cancer of the bile ducts and is characterized by a high mortality rate and a steadily rising incidence.

An 82-year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer was admitted with an acute abdomen.

The use of curved linear array (CLA) and radial EUS in the lower GI tract has largely been limited to the sigmoid colon and rectum, as their oblique optics present a challenge in advancement to the right side of the colon.

Patients with surgically altered anatomy present unique challenges to traditional endoscopic management of foregut pathology, such as drainage of peripancreatic fluid collections.

Fluorescence confocal laser microscopy (FCM) allows imaging of tissues in the fresh state, with minimal preparation and without any damage, distortion, or loss of tissue.

Duodenocolonic fistulae may result as adverse events of malignancies, and their management is often challenging for nonsurgical patients.

Bouveret syndrome is a rare condition characterized by the impaction of a gallstone in the stomach or duodenum via a fistulous tract resulting in gastric outlet obstruction or ileus in the setting of cholecystitis.

Intussusception represents the telescoping of a proximal segment of the GI tract (intussusceptum) into the lumen of an adjacent distal segment (intussuscipiens).
