Endoscopic ultrasound‐assisted rendezvous by transgastric approach in malignant extrahepatic bile duct stricture

Endoscopic ultrasonography rendezvous (EUS‐RV) is useful in cases of difficult deep biliary cannulation. However, in malignant extrahepatic bile duct strictures (MEHBDS), transduodenal routes are challenging and the transgastric approach often requires fistula dilation. We report a case of resectabl...

Zusammenfassung:Endoscopic ultrasonography rendezvous (EUS‐RV) is useful in cases of difficult deep biliary cannulation. However, in malignant extrahepatic bile duct strictures (MEHBDS), transduodenal routes are challenging and the transgastric approach often requires fistula dilation. We report a case of resectable MEHBDS in which transgastric puncture from the antrum of the stomach as EUS‐RV was useful.
