Endoscopic therapy of a splenic abscess: definitive treatment via EUS-guided transgastric drainage.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Stents have been placed through malignant pancreatic strictures, mainly to alleviate pain of presumed obstructive origin. Self-expanding metallic stents have major advantages over plastic stents when used for treatment of malignant biliary strictures. However, there are few reports of their use in patients w...
