] “Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastro-enteric anastomosis: A systematic review and
meta-analysis”. The authors performed a meta-analysis of published data on Endoscopic
ultrasound-guided gastro-enteric anastomosis (EUS-GEA), providing a pooled estimate
of technical and clinical outcomes.Antonelli G, Kovacevic B, Karsensten JG et al., Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastro-enteric anastomosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Digestive Liver Dis, Ahead of print, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dld.2020.04.021.

- PreviewEndoscopic ultrasound-guided gastro-enteric anastomosis (EUS-GEA) using lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) is emerging as a minimally invasive alternative to surgery across several indications. Literature on this subject is heterogeneous, with variable reporting of techniques and outcomes. Our aim was to perform a meta-analysis of published data on EUS-GEA, providing a pooled estimate of technical and clinical outcomes.
