Newest firstBackground/aims There are limitations in treating ampullary adenomas with intraductal extension using conventional endoscopic modalities. Endoscopic intraductal radiofrequency ablation (ID-RFA) may be useful for treating intraductal (common bile duct [CBD] and/or pancreatic duct [PD]) extensions of ampullary adenomas, but long-term data are lacking. We thus evaluated the long-term outcomes of endoscopic ID-RFA for…
Open article record in new tab ↗Several in vivo swine models of benign biliary stenosis (BBS) have been recently reported for preclinical studies of novel endoscopic techniques and devices. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of large animal models of BBS by using intraductal radiofrequency ablation (RFA) assisted by guide wire. Six in vivo swine models were made by using an intraductal RFA for cauterization at 10…
The use of endobiliary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to generate a benign biliary stricture (BBS) model has a significant reproducibility problem. The aims of this animal study were to create an optimal BBS model using endobiliary RFA and determine the best way to develop it. The first step was performed on the common bile duct (CBD) of 10 miniature pigs using endoscopic RFA with a target temperature-controlled mo…
