Abstract Body: Introduction: Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)–guided gallbladder drainage (GBD) and EUS-guided choledocoduodenostomy (CDS) with lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) are alternative approaches to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). We compared EUS-GBD and EUS-CDS as first line therapies in the management of distal maligna...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers with patients having unresectable or metastatic disease at diagnosis, with poor prognosis and very short survival. Given that genetic variation within autophagy‐related genes influences autophagic flux and susceptibility to solid cancers, we decided to investigate whether 55,...
Article
Pleiotropic variants (i.e., genetic polymorphisms influencing more than one phenotype) are often associated with cancer risk. A scan of pleiotropic variants was successfully conducted ten years ago in relation to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma susceptibility. However, in the last decade, genetic association studies performed on several human trai...
Article
Introduction Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage of symptomatic pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) using the Hot-Axios device has recently been associated with a significant risk of bleeding. This adverse event (AE) seems to occur less frequently with the use of a different device, the Spaxus stent. The aim of the current study was to comp...
Article
Introduction: Chronic pancreatitis is a heterogeneous and complex syndrome that, in most cases, causes pain as a cardinal symptom and affects both the morphology and function of the pancreas, leading to several serious complications. Areas covered: The present review, based on a non-systematic PubMed search updated to June 2023, aims to present...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers. The vast majority of patients have unresectable or metastatic disease at diagnosis, with poor prognosis and very short survival. Considering this fact, it is urgent to understand the genetic basis of susceptibility to PDAC and to develop more individualized prevention strate...
Article
Insulinoma is a multifaceted disease that poses several challenges in terms of clinical presentation, diagnostic work‐up, and surgical management. The aim of this study was to describe diagnostic work‐up, surgical management, and postoperative outcomes of patients with insulinoma. All consecutive patients who underwent surgery for insulinoma at San...
