Abstract

Abstract : Highlight Kida and colleagues described their method for successfully performing biliary self‐expandable metallic stenting with the through‐the‐scope technique using an ultra‐slim endoscope for malignant biliary obstruction with duodenal stenosis. This procedure may be useful in cases of duodenal stenosis in which it is difficult to reach the major duodenal papilla.
