This atlas aims to systematically provide a case-by-case discussion on selected interventional endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) procedures and how to approach such procedures on different patients. The atlas offers illustrations of the interventional procedures and several cases of the procedures are included. Within each case, a standardized report is provided including a brief history, imaging findings, a detailed discussion on treatment options, considerations in the EUS intervention, how to perform the procedures and final outcomes. EUS-guided drainages of the bile duct, pancreatic duct, gallbladder and abscesses are summarized. Ablative procedures including celiac plexus, pancreatic cyst and radiofrequency ablations are also covered. Other procedures guided by EUS, including gastroenterostomy, injected therapy, iodine beads insertion and fiducial marker insertion and endovascular interventions are further demonstrated. Gastroenterologists and surgeons can benefit from this atlas on learning strategies and preparing for these procedures.

From embryology to epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, complications, treatment and prognosis, this book provides a comprehensive overview and the latest evidence-based data on pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM), a congenital malformation in which the pancreatic and bile ducts join anatomically outside the duodenal wall. Resulting in various pathologic conditions, such as biliary cancer and pancreatitis, immediate prophylactic surgery is recommended upon diagnosis. The standard operative procedure for congenital biliary dilatation (CBD) is extrahepatic bile duct resection with bilioenteric anastomosis, but the optimal treatment of adult patients with PBM without biliary dilatation remains highly debatable. This book, written by pioneering editors and authors provides latest data, sheds new light on the disease. With abundant figures to aid understanding, Pancreaticobiliary Maljunction and Congenital Biliary Dilatation appeals to a wide readership, especially adult and pediatric surgeons, physicians including gastroenterologists and endoscopists, as well as radiologists and pathologists.
