A 59-year-old woman was admitted because of vomiting, CT examinations it was determined that the cause of vomiting was duodenal stenosis due to hematoma after rupture of the inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm. In addition, it was believed that the aneurysm had been caused by obstruction of the celiac artery. The aneurysm of the inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery was detected by angiography, and embolization was performed using coils. The embolization was successful. Since then the duodenal stenosis improved and the vomiting symptoms disappeared. We reviewed 28 cases of duodenal stenosis due to rupture of the pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm in the Japanese literature.

Article Synopsis
- A 78-year-old male patient presented with persistent vomiting due to a rare case of metastatic urinary bladder cancer, which led to gastric outlet obstruction.
- Despite recent follow-up showing no disease recurrence, tests revealed duodenal stenosis and abnormal mesenteric fat swelling, initially misinterpreted as inflammation.
- A laparoscopic exploration confirmed peritoneal carcinomatosis, ultimately identifying urothelial cancer cells, highlighting the need for clinicians to think about metastatic bladder cancer in similar situations.
Intestinal webs are either congenital or acquired. There are few reported cases of either chemotherapy or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications leading to acquired intestinal webs in adults. There are limited descriptions of endoscopic interventions used for therapy of numerous duodenal webs in pediatrics.

- - Median arcuate ligament syndrome results in the celiac artery being compressed, leading to reduced blood flow and potential aneurysm formation in the pancreatic area; it was observed in six cases during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- - Patients experienced abdominal pain 3 to 9 days after COVID-19 onset, although none required oxygen, and diagnoses were confirmed using contrast-enhanced CT scans showing hemorrhage and aneurysms.
- - While rare, retroperitoneal hemorrhage related to this syndrome may be exacerbated by COVID-19, causing complications like duodenal stenosis and portal vein thrombosis in some patients.
This case involves a 69-year-old female with a history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass who presented with gastric outlet obstruction of the excluded stomach, secondary to pancreatic cancer with malignant duodenal stenosis and confirmed liver metastasis. The excluded stomach was significantly dilated, posing a high risk of perforation.

Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Virginia Mason Medical Center, Seattle, United States.
Background: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) is a minimally invasive technique for treating gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). The aim of this study was to assess the outcomes of EUS-GE in managing benign GOO caused by duodenal stenosis in patients with acute pancreatitis.
Methods: This international retrospective study analyzed patients treated with EUS-GE for GOO caused by acute pancreatitis until December 2023, evaluating technical and clinical success, adverse events, and reintervention.
