Prospective Registry Of Therapeutic EndoscopiC ulTrasound
Sponsor: Paolo Giorgio Arcidiacono, MD
Summary
This registry aims to analyze long-term outcomes of therapeutic EUS (T-EUS) procedures, as well as to describe clinical and technical variables potentially predicting clinical success or adverse events, for a better selection of ideal candidates. The study also includes standard alternatives to T-EUS procedures for outcomes comparison.

Conditions
Interventions
Therapeutic EUS
1. EUS-guided collection drainage (transgastric or transduodenal, performed by Lumen Apposing Metal Stents or double pigtail stents) and eventual endoscopic necrosectomy 2. EUS-guided biliary drainage (either of the extrahepatic or intrahepatic biliary tree / transduodenal or transgastric / either as access for subsequent rendez-vous or transpapillary stenting OR for transparietal stenting by metal or plastic stents). 3. EUS-guided gallbladder drainage via Lumen Apposing Metal Stents and eventual subsequent EUS-based cholecystolithotomy 4. EUS-guided gastro-jejunostomy through Lumen Apposing Metal Stents 5. EUS-directed ERCP in post-surgical anatomy (by gastro-gastrostomy or entero-enterostomy performed through Lumen Apposing Metal Stents) 6. EUS-guided pancreatic duct drainage
Percutaneous Procedures
Procedures involving a percutaneous access to a target region (fluid collection, gallbladder, biliary tree)
Surgical Interventions
Surgical interventions to obtain a drainage (e.g. surgical necrosectomy, pancreatico-gastrostomy) or the bypass of a stricture (hepatico-jejunostomy or gastro-jejunostomy)
non-EUS-based endoscopic procedures
Other endoscopic procedures not involving EUS (ERCP with stenting; enteral stenting, Enteroscopy-assisted ERCP)
