Purpose of review: Gastric outlet obstruction is a syndrome that is caused by several benign and malignant diseases. Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) is a novel treatment that seems to combine the advantages of the two traditional treatments: enteral stent placement (ES) and surgical gastrojejunostomy (SGJ). This review aims to determine the current position of EUS-GE amidst the two traditional treatment options. Recent findings: Different approaches can be adopted to facilitate EUS-GE. Direct gastroenterostomy seems to have the shortest procedure time. All methods possess high technical success rates. Several retrospective analyses have compared EUS-GE to ES and SGJ. EUS-GE seems to have better stent patency compared to ES and a lower adverse event rate compared to SGJ. Recently, randomized trials have been initiated which compare EUS-GE with ES or SGJ. Summary: Although the currently published literature unequivocally shows the great promises of EUS-GE, properly powered and controlled studies are warranted to ascertain the definitive position of EUS-GE within the treatment repertoire of GOO. Until reliable data has been collected, EUS-GE can be considered a safe and effective alternative to ES and SGJ. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
