REVIEW
Endoscopic Therapies for Gastroparesis.
Current Gastroenterology Reports 2018 April 24
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Gastroparesis remains a difficult-to-treat disease with limited therapeutic options. Though patients often have a common syndrome of stereotypic symptoms, the underlying pathophysiology is heterogeneous, often leading to variable treatment responses. Due to limitations in medical and surgical therapies, endoscopic options have been increasingly explored. These options can be broadly categorized into pyloric-directed therapy, non-pyloric-directed therapy, and nutritional support. In this review, we will highlight current and emerging endoscopic options, such as gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM).
RECENT FINDINGS: Early retrospective studies on G-POEM offer encouraging results up to one year out, with an acceptable safety profile. Other pyloric-directed therapies, such as pyloric dilation and stenting, have also been explored. While emerging endoscopic therapeutic options are encouraging, efficacy will likely depend on a better characterization of underlying pathophysiology and improved patient selection. Future prospective, controlled studies are needed.
