I've anecdotally seen some good outcomes with EUS-guided hepaticojejunostomy in patients with total gastrectomy, so it's nice to see other centers report the same in this month's @GIE_Journal . 👉Technical success = 100%.👉Clinical success = 80%.👉Adverse events = 33%

Appreciated this article from @BilalMohammadMD (with commentary by @EndoscopyOthman ) on endoscopic internalization of PCTs. 1 thing I've been told is to consider manual instillation via syringe to better feel the pressure. Well worth the short read for those of us who do it!

A couple of clinical pearls from @AGA_Gastro Curbside Consults:.✨ The pathologic findings from colchicine toxicity? Ring mitosis (also seen w/ paclitaxel).✨ Don't overlook peritoneal TB if the ascites returns negative! Sensitivity is poor ➡️ Stains (5%) ➡️ Cx (35%) ➡️ PCR (64%).

A few personal takeaways from the updated guidelines:. 🚫 PPI-REE.👍 6 esophageal biopsies, from 2 levels.💊 PPI = topical steroids.👎 Allergy-test directed diets.🩺 Re-assess response w/ EGD 8-12w after changes to tx.🤔 Consider empiric dilation (16-18 mm) if sx persist.

🗣️ New ASGE guidelines on feeding tubes in this month's issue of @GIE_Journal . 1️⃣ PEG > IR-G tubes.2️⃣ PEG on DAPT appears safe, but A/C warrants discussion.3️⃣ Early feeding 👍.4️⃣ If malignant dysphagia, offer direct PEG/IR-G if available (0.6% risk of seeding with pull-type).
