Malignant refractory ascites usually heralds a poor prognosis and substantially impairs the quality of life of patients because of the symptoms experienced and the need for repeated paracentesis. EUS-guided placement of lumen-apposing, fully covered, self-expandable metal stents (FCSEMS) has been reported for the drainage of malignant ascites. Herein, we present the results of EUS-guided placement of plastic pigtails stents for the drainage of refractory malignant ascites in three patients. The aim was to improve symptoms and minimize the possible drawbacks of large-caliber FCSEMS.\u200aIn this preliminary experience, EUS-guided placement of plastic stents was feasible and avoided further paracentesis. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0043-118746","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,27]],"date-time":"2017-10-27T19:41:34Z","timestamp":1509133294000},"page":"E1096-E1099","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Endoscopic ultrasound-guided placement of plastic pigtail stents for the drainage of refractory malignant ascites"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"05","author":[{"given":"Rafael","family":"Romero-Castro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterology Service, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Victoria","family":"Jimenez-Garcia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterology Service, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jaime","family":"Boceta-Osuna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luis","family":"Castilla-Guerra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Francisco","family":"Pellicer-Bautista","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterology Service, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Angel","family":"Caunedo-Alvarez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterology Service, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juan","family":"Herrerias-Gutierrez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterology Service, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Manuel","family":"Romero-G\u00f3mez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterology Service, Virgen Macarena University Hospital, Seville, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marc","family":"Giovannini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endoscopy Unit, Institut Paoli-Calmettes, Marseilles, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,27]]},"container-title":["Endoscopy International Open"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0043-118746.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,6]],"date-time":"2019-05-06T15:33:25Z","timestamp":1557156805000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0043-118746"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,27]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"11","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,26]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,11]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0043-118746","relation":{},"ISSN":["2364-3722","2196-9736"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2364-3722","type":"print"},{"value":"2196-9736","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,27]]}}}
