Version: 2Date:6 January 2013

Reviewer's report:
Major compulsory revisions:
-----------------------------------------
None
Minor essential revisions:
-----------------------------------------
1) Page 3 bottom paragraph: Replace “a trocar” with” a 19G trocar”
2) Page 4 first paragraph: State in a separate sentence the data for the special
double stent. Explain about its dimensions before expansion and after expansion.
State the diameters rather than width. Explain about its ability to be collapsed for
retrieval. If I understand correctly that the two ends of the stent can be expanded
independently of each other, then please explain about this feature. Please
explain about any mechanism of the stent to be retracted back to working
channel dimension for retrieval. Consider a separate heading for this explanation
of the special dual stent.
3) In the next sentence: Clarify the procedure of deploying the stent.
4) Page 4 second paragraph: Please replace “alcohol consumption interrupted”
with “ethanol abstinence”.
5) Page 4 second paragraph: Replace “ealily mobilised“ with “easily mobilised for
retrieval“.
6) Page 4 third paragraph line 2 to 7: Omit this sentence it is off topic and too
general, it is not supported by the data you present.
7) Page 4 third paragraph: Replace “probably from concealed“ with “probably by
damaging concealed“.
8) Page 5 second paragraph first line: Replace “sever“ with “severe“.

intermittent radiological check-ups“ with “procedure was continued with
EUS-guidance supplemented by intermittent radiological viewing “.
11) Replace “elicited“ with “it excerted“.

General comments:

May I suggest running a spelling check.
It might ease the understanding if long sentences are split up.
Level of interest: An article whose findings are important to those with closely
related research interests
Quality of written English: Needs some language corrections before being
published
Statistical review: No, the manuscript does not need to be seen by a
statistician.
