Transanastomotic Forward-Viewing EUS-Guided Pancreatic Duct Drainage via Afferent Loop for Pancreaticojejunostomy Anastomotic Stricture After Pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Background: Although balloon enteroscopy-assisted ERCP and transgastric EUS-guided pancreatic duct drainage (EUS-PD) are treatment option for pancreaticojejunostomy anastomotic stricture (PJAS), they are often challenging with several limitations. This study aimed to examine the feasibility of transanastomotic forward-viewing EUS-PD (FVEUS-PD) via the afferent loop for PJAS after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Methods: Ten consecutive patients with symptomatic PJAS who underwent FVEUS-PD between 2015 and 2021 were retrospectively evaluated.
