Background: Malignant gastric outlet obstruction (MGOD) is an extremely rare expression of advanced extra-gastrointestinal cancer, such as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the cervix, and only sixcases are described in the literature.Because of the short life expectancyand the high surgical risk involving these patients, less invasive approaches have been developed over time, such asthe use of an enteral stent or less invasive surgical techniques (i.e., laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy). However, MGOD could make it difficult to perform an endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP) for standard endoscopic drainage, so in this case a combined endoscopic-percutaneous technique may be performed. This article, therefore, aims to highlight the presence in the doctor’s armamentarium of the “rendezvous technique”, few case reports of whichare described in the literature, and, moreover, this article aims to underline the technique’sfeasibility. Case Presentation: The case is that of a 38-year-old woman who presented with MGOD three years after the diagnosis of SCC of the cervix, who successfully underwent the rendezvous technique with the resolution of duodenal obstruction. Endoscopic enteral stenting treatment with the placement of a metal stent (SEMSs) represents the mainstay of MGOD treatment compared withsurgery due to its lower morbidity, mortality, shorter hospitalization and earlier symptom relief. However, in patients with both duodenal and biliary obstruction, a combined endoscopic–percutaneous approach may be necessary because of the difficulty in passing the duodenal stricture or in accessing the papilla through the mesh of the duodenal SEMS. Conclusion: The rendezvous procedure is a technicallyfeasible and minimally invasive approach to the double stenting of biliary and duodenal strictures. It achieves the desired therapeutic result while avoiding the need to perform more invasive procedures that could have a negative impact on the patient’sprognosis.

Background: Extracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare congenital vascular anomalies that often require endovascular treatment due to symptoms such as pain, bleeding, or functional impairment. Endovascular strategies include arterial, venous, or combined embolization approaches; however, recurrence remains a major challenge. We retrospectively evaluate the technical success, safety, and clinical outcomes of arterial-only versus combined arterial and venous embolization for the treatment of extracranial AVMs. Materials and Methods: This single-center retrospective study included 14 patients (mean age 31.8 ± 21.7 years; 64% female) with symptomatic extracranial AVMs (Schobinger stage II) treated between 2017 and 2023. AVMs were classified angiographically (Yakes classification) and treated with embolization via arterial or combined access routes. The primary endpoint was technical success (defined as angiographic nidus occlusion), while secondary endpoints included clinical recurrence and procedure-related complications. Follow-up included clinical and Doppler ultrasound assessments. Results: Nine patients (64%) underwent arterial embolization alone; five (36%) received combined arterial and venous embolization, including Lauromacrogol injection via direct puncture. Technical success was achieved in all cases (100%). Clinical recurrence occurred in two patients (14%), both from the arterial-only group. One major complication (tongue ischemia) occurred in a single patient (7%). No complications or recurrences were observed in the combined treatment group. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference in recurrence or complication rates between groups.
