Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Greg Haber gives the Jean and Lynn Overholt lecture on innovation in pancreatic biliary endoscopy. Dr. Overholt is renowned for his work in developing the flexible endoscope and his contributions to the field of therapeutic endoscopy. Dr. Haber discusses the complementary roles of EUS and ERCP in pancreatic biliary endoscopy and explores recent advancements such as radiofrequency ablation for neuroendocrine tumors and the use of holography to enhance stenting in complex strictures. He provides case examples and demonstrations to illustrate these techniques. Dr. Haber also discusses the challenges and outcomes of EUS-guided procedures, including choledochoduodenostomy, gallbladder drainage, and gastrojejunostomy. He emphasizes the importance of selecting the right stent and technique to minimize complications. Lastly, Dr. Haber introduces the use of holography in ERCP to help guide interventions and improve visualization of the biliary tree. He concludes by expressing his gratitude for the honor of giving the lecture and paying tribute to the legacy and accomplishments of Jean Overholt.
