Background:

Pyloric closure is a method of treatment for duodenal injury. Surgery is usually needed to restore digestive continuity in due time, yet a new surgical procedure can be challenging due to fibrotic adhesion development.

Methods:

We present here a retrospective case series of three patients' wih pyloric exclusion who underwent EUS guided duodenal repermeabilization using metallic stents. IRB approval was not needed for this paper, written informed consent was obtained from all patients before the procedures.

Results:

All procedures were successful with no complication and allowed regular feeding.

Conclusion:

This case series shows that EUS guided recanalization is a feasible and safe procedure that can help avoid surgery.
