1/2. ⁉️Novel application of PuraStat⁉️. Case: Minor defect after dual sphincterotomy with 5Fr x 2cm PD stent already in place. Tx: PuraStat applied to create “sealant” & 5Fr x 7cm biliary stent placed to prevent obstruction. Both stents expected to spontaneously pass.

Endoscopic gastroenterostomy stent exchange for chronic GOO due to immune checkpoint inhibitor induced duodenitis (original 2020). ➡️ Endoscopic GE’s are effective options for non-malignant GOO. ➡️Annual exchanges of chronic indwelling stent reduce risk of delaminating.
