Article Abstract
A 29-year-old man with chronic portal venous thrombosis resulting in portal biliopathy required stenting of his common bile duct (CBD) and underwent a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure to decrease portal pressures. He later presented with abdominal pain in the setting of prolonged CBD stent placement and was found to have air within his TIPS stent with a fistula on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography between his fully covered CBD stent and bare metal TIPS stent. There was concern that further intervention would lead to an air embolus. We suggest that when multiple stents are indicated, stent selection with close monitoring is critical.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Pediatric Population: A Decade-Long Experience from 2 Tertiary Centers.
Turk J Gastroenterol

Department of Gastroenterology, Harran University Faculty of Medicine, Şanlıurfa, Türkiye.
Background/aims: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an essential diagnostic and therapeutic method for pancreato-biliary disorders in adults, but its use in pediatric populations remains limited. This study aims to evaluate the indications, technical success, and safety of ERCP in pediatric patients.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of all ERCP procedures performed on patients under 18 years of age was conducted at 2 tertiary centers in Türkiye (Harran University and Gaziantep University Hospital) during the period between January 2013 and May 2024.
Recent advances in the management of pediatric cholestatic liver diseases.

Pediatric cholestatic liver diseases are rare conditions that can result from multiple specific underlying etiologies. Among the most common etiologies of pediatric cholestatic liver diseases are biliary atresia, Alagille syndrome (ALGS), and inherited disorders of bile acid transport. These diseases are characterized by episodic or chronic unremitting cholestasis.

Objectives: Bile acid diarrhea is a common but underdiagnosed condition. Because the gold standard test (SeHCAT) is time-consuming and not widely available, fecal bile acid excretion is typically assessed by chromatography and mass spectrometry. Although enzymatic cycling assays are well established for the rapid and cost-effective analysis of total bile acids (TBA) in serum or plasma, their full potential has yet not been extended to stool samples in clinical routine.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a common multi-factorial liver disease, and its incidence is gradually increasing worldwide. Many reports have revealed that intestinal flora plays a crucial role for the occurrence and development of MASLD, through mechanisms such as flora translocation, endogenous ethanol production, dysregulation of choline metabolism and bile acid, and endotoxemia. Here, we review the relationship between intestinal flora and MASLD, as well as interventions for MASLD, such as prebiotics, probiotics, synbiotics, and intestinal flora transplantation.

Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Ewha Womans University, Seoul 03760, South Korea.
Background: Extrahepatic Common Bile Duct Obstruction (EHBDO) is a serious condition that requires accurate diagnosis for effective treatment. Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a widely used noninvasive imaging technique for visualizing bile ducts, but its interpretation can be complex.
Objective: This study aimed to develop a deep learning-based classification model that integrates MRCP images and clinical parameters to assist radiologists in diagnosing EHBDO more accurately.
