Description

Superior performance has resulted in EUS replacing percutaneous image-guided tissue sampling for targets close to the GI tract. Techniques based on EUS-guided puncture have been developed that allow bilio-enteric anastomoses. These minimally invasive anastomoses offer potential clinical advantages to patients. However, steep learning curve and limited case-load hamper the widespread dissemination of this novel approach. Preliminary data suggest the usefulness of the porcine model in facilitating skills training and subsequent clinical application of EUS-guided anastomosis techniques.  
This course does not have any sections.

Goals

To provide background knowledge and hands-on training in skills required to implement into clinical practice EUS-guided biliary anastomoses.

Students

The program is aimed at fully trained pancreatobiliary endoscopists.

Course details

Physicians pioneering the development of EUS-guided anastomoses, coordinated by the Spanish Group of Protocols in Digestive Endoscopy (GEPED) and staff endoscopists from University Hospital “Rio Hortega” (HURH; Valladolid, Spain), team up with teaching surgeons and veterinaries from Center for Biomedical Research (CREBA) in Lleida to develop a 3-day intensive program. After replication of established swine biliary obstruction models, EUS-guided biliary drainage procedures will be performed by attendees under proctoring by experts. Baseline and final performance measures will be recorded for each trainee.
