Abstract
Background and study aims Lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) have been designed as proprietary stents for the management of pseudocysts (PC)/walled off necrosis (WON). There has been concern about adverse events (AEs) with LAMS including bleeding, buried stent syndrome and migration. Prior to LAMS becoming available, fully-covered self-expandable metal esophageal and biliary stents (FCSEMSs) were used off-label for management of PC/WON with many...
