However, there are limited data on its effectiveness for various indications.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Patients and methods\u2002This was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data of patients who underwent EUS for upper gastrointestinal tract disorders from January 2018 to December 2020 to assess its indications, findings, interventions, and complications.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2002Ninety-two procedures were performed in 85 children, (70.5\u200a% male; mean [SD] age 12.1 years [3.9] years) with a mean (SD) symptom duration of 1.1 (0.5) years. The procedures were technically successful in all patients. The primary indication for EUS was abdominal pain in 45(52.9%) and jaundice\/cholangitis in 15 patients (17.6\u200a%). General anesthesia was used in 12 (13\u200a%) and TIVA in 80 patients (87\u200a%). The most common diagnostic findings were choledocholithiasis in 21 (24.7\u200a%) and cholelithiasis in 12 patients (14.1\u200a%). Among interventions, EUS-guided cystogastrostomy for pancreatic pseudocyst was done in four patients (4.7\u200a%), and EUS-guided rendezvous for failed ERCP in one patient (1.2\u200a%) with cholangitis. There were no immediate post-procedural complications. Overall, EUS had a meaningful impact on the subsequent clinical management in 69 cases (81.2\u200a%).<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusions\u2002EUS in the pediatric population is safe, effective, and has a meaningful impact in appropriately selected cases. It can act as a rescue in major therapeutic procedures, but adequate care should be taken at the procedural level and during anesthesia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-1675-2291","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,15]],"date-time":"2022-02-15T23:54:50Z","timestamp":1644969290000},"page":"E192-E199","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Usefulness
