    Electrocautery-tip lumen-apposing metal stents (EC-LAMSs) have extended the indications of therapeutic EUS. We aimed to retrospectively evaluate safety and technical and clinical success of a newly developed EC-LAMS, the Hot-Spaxus (Taewoong Medical Co, Gimpo, Korea), for various EUS-guided procedures. We included and retrospectively analyzed consecutive patients at 8 tertiary care referral centers who had undergone EUS interventional procedures using the Hot-Spaxus between October 2018 and February 2021. Of 58 included patients (male-to-female, 36:22; mean age, 63.5 ± 14.9 years), 29 had undergone pancreatic fluid collection drainage (50%), 22 (37.9%) biliary drainage for malignant distal obstruction, 3 (5.1%) gallbladder drainage for acute cholecystitis, 3 gastroenteroanastomoses, and 1 (1.7%) pelvic collection drainage. Technical success was achieved in 54 of 58 patients (93.1%) and clinical success in all 58. Adverse events occurred in 6 patients (11.1%): 2 early (3.7%), 1 late (1.8%), and 3 long term (5.6%). The outcomes were similar to those observed in a control group of patients treated with the Hot-Axios (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, Mass, USA), the other available EC-LAMS. Our study showed that the novel EC-LAMS has high technical and clinical success rates for various interventional EUS indications. Future multicenter prospective studies will better clarify the role of this new EC-LAMS for different indications. Display omitted
