lüll Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage: a review Iwashita T; Doi S; Yasuda IClin J Gastroenterol 2014[Apr]; 7 (2): 94-102Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP) is widely used as a first-line therapy for biliary drainage. ERCP occasionally fails owing to anatomical or technical problems, despite high reported success rates. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has recently emerged as an effective alternative biliary drainage method after unsuccessful ERCP. EUS-BD can be essentially divided into 3 different techniques-(1) EUS-guided transluminal biliary drainage including choledocoduodenostomy and hepaticogastrostomy, (2) EUS-rendezvous technique, and (3) EUS-antegrade approach. Here, we focus on the current status of EUS-BD in light of these 3 different techniques.|*Endosonography[MESH]|*Ultrasonography, Interventional[MESH]|Cholestasis/*diagnostic imaging/*surgery[MESH]|Decision Trees[MESH]|Drainage/*methods[MESH]|Humans[MESH] |
