Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Glue Embolization for Left Gastric Artery Pseudoaneurysm Presenting as Hemosuccus Pancreaticus After Failed Radiological Intervention.

Hemosuccus pancreaticus is characterized by intermittent bleeding from the ampulla of Vater due to the rupture of a pseudoaneurysm. There are significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with this rare and potentially life-threatening condition. We present a rare case in an 18-year-old man who presented with recurrent episodes of hematemesis and melena due to hemosuccus pancreaticus as a result of a left gastric artery pseudoaneurysm.

Self-expanding metallic stent for refractory pancreatic duct stricture in chronic pancreatitis: A prospective follow-up study.

Background And Aims: In chronic pancreatitis, fully covered self-expanding metal stents (FCSEMS) are used to treat refractory pancreatic duct strictures. However, the FCSEMS design, effectiveness, safety, optimal stent indwelling time and patient selection remain unclear. This study aimed at evaluating technical success, clinical success and adverse events with FCSEMS in patients with symptomatic pancreatic duct stricture.

Antibody response to ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (Covishield®) vaccine in people on maintenance hemodialysis.

Introduction: People on renal replacement therapy (RRT) have a high risk of COVID-19 infection and subsequent death. COVID-19 vaccination is strongly recommended for those on RRT. Data are limited on the immune response of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19/AZD1222 (Covishield®) vaccine in patients on RRT.
