Placement of Plastic Stents after Direct Endoscopic Necrosectomy through a Novel Lumen-Apposing Metal Stent for Effective Treatment of Laterally Extended Walled-Off Necrosis: A Pilot Study

Placement of Plastic Stents after Direct Endoscopic Necrosectomy through a Novel Lumen-Apposing Metal Stent for Effective Treatment of Laterally Extended Walled-Off Necrosis: A Pilot Study

Direct endoscopic necrosectomy (DEN) using a lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) is a standard therapy for the management of symptomatic walled-off necrosis (WON). Here, we demonstrated the efficacy of the routine placement of long plastic stents after a DEN session to treat laterally extended WON. Pa...
