Abstract: When endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) fails in patients with malignant distal biliary obstruction, endoscopic ultrasound‐guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS‐CDS) is an alternative. It has high technical and clinical success rates, but also has high adverse event rates.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/den.13714
Abstract: Endoscopic biliary stenting is the most widely accepted procedure for the management of symptomatic biliary obstruction. In cases of unresectable malignant distal biliary obstruction (UMDBO), stent placement plays a key role in maintaining biliary flow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2017/7621821
Abstract: This paper presents a retrospective comparison of plastic versus metallic stents in the drainage of malignant distal biliary obstructions. We compared single plastic stents (SPS), multiple plastic stents (MPS), and metallic stents (SEMS) regarding clinical… read more here.

Abstract: Background & aimsEndoscopic ultrasound guided-biliary drainage (EUS-BD) is a promising alternative to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP); however, its growth has been limited by a lack of multicenter randomized controlled trials (RCT) and dedicated devices. A… read more here.
