Endoscopic Ultrasound–Guided Gastroenterostomy Outperforms Surgical Gastrojejunostomy for Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction: randomized trial shows faster recovery, shorter stay and lower costs

A multicentre randomized trial found EUS-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) superior to surgical gastrojejunostomy (SGJ) for malignant gastric outlet obstruction—improving oral intake, shortening hospital stay, enhancing quality of life and reducing costs.

EUS-Guided Gastroenterostomy Beats Surgical Gastrojejunostomy for Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction: Randomised Trial Shows Faster Diet, Shorter Stay and Lower Costs

A multicentre randomized trial (NCT05548114) found endoscopic ultrasound‑guided gastroenterostomy (EUS‑GE) superior to surgical gastrojejunostomy (SGJ) for malignant gastric outlet obstruction, with faster return to solid diet, shorter hospitalisation, better quality-of-life and lower costs.

Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Gastroenterostomy Reduces Reintervention in Malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction: Insights from the Multicentre DRA-GOO Trial

A multicentre RCT demonstrated that endoscopic ultrasonography-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) significantly lowers 6-month reintervention rates and improves gastric outlet obstruction symptoms compared to duodenal stenting in unresectable malignant gastric outlet obstruction.
