Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP) is widely used as a first-line therapy for
biliary drainage. ERCP occasionally fails owing to anatomical or technical problems, despite …

The continued need to develop less invasive alternatives to surgical and radiologic
interventions has driven the development of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided …

OBJECTIVES: The goal of the study was to determine whether endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-
guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) is comparable to conventional transpapillary stenting with …

BACKGROUND: EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has been proposed as an effective
alternative for percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) after failed ERCP. To date …

Endoscopic ultrasound/ultrasonography‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) is a relatively
new modality for biliary drainage after failed or difficult transpapillary biliary cannulation …

Background Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided biliary drainage (EUS‐BD) is considered to be
an effective salvage procedure for failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography …

BACKGROUND: EUS-guided cholangiopancreatography (ESCP) allows transmural access
to biliopancreatic ducts when ERCP fails. Data regarding technical details, safety, and …

Background: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography may fail because of
malignant involvement of the second portion of the duodenum and the major papilla …

Background A single session of EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) may be a viable
alternative to ERCP in patients with malignant distal common bile duct (CBD) obstruction …

BACKGROUND: EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) was introduced as an effective
alternative to percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage after failed ERCP. However, EUS …
