Abstract
This multicenter retrospective study included patients undergoing EUS-guided GI anastomoses from 2016 to 2023. Indications for EUS-guided anastomosis were GOO, ALS or patients with altered anatomy needing endoscopic interventions. The primary outcome was technical success, while secondary outcomes included clinical success, safety, lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) patency, and the need for reinterventions. A total of 216 patients (mean age 64.5 [±13.94] years; 49.1% males) were included. In total, 149 cases (69%) were GOO, 44 (20.4%) cases were bilioenteric anastomotic strictures or lithiasis in altered anatomy, 14 cases (6.5%) were ALS, and 9 patients (4.2%) were for ERCP in altered anatomy after EUS-GG. Overall, EUS-GE was performed in 181 patients (83.8%), EUS-JJ in 44 cases (20.4%), and EUS-GG in 10 (4.6%). Technical success was 94.91%, and clinical success was 93.66%. The adverse event (AE) rate was 11.1%. The reintervention rate was 7.69%. The median follow-up was 85 days. In conclusions, EUS-guided GI anastomoses are technically feasible and safe in both malignant and benign diseases.
