Abstract

EUS-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) is increasingly used as an alternative to surgery and enteral stent placement to manage gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). However, no data are available on the learning curve (LC) for EUS-GE. Defining the LC is necessary to create adequate subspecialty training programs and quality assurance.
