Abstract
This year's UEGW presents a variety of endoscopic, ultrasonic and clinical abstracts on various topics. In the same issue of ENDOSCOPY, this year's DDW congress report is included. Comparing the 397 abstracts allocated for publication in this journal with those submitted to the DDW reveals that 23 % of the abstracts reported below were also submitted to the DDW, and 14 % of all UEGW abstracts published in this issue were accepted for oral or poster presentation in San Diego. Only in a very small minority of these submitted/accepted abstracts were patient numbers substantially updated between the DDW and the UEGW. Those abtracts already contained in the DDW congress report are therefore not detailed here and only a very brief overview on the remaining UEGW abstracts will be given in the following.
