Abstract
drainage is widely performed for walled‑off necrosis (WON). Currently, the lumen‑apposing metal stent (LAMS) plays an important role as an effective drainage device for this condition. [1] However, LAMS deployment may be challenging if the visibility of a pancreatic pseudocyst is poor on EUS imaging due to debris or necrotic tissue, because the distal flange of the LAMS may not be sufficiently open. To obtain technical success
