PROCEDURE

Eus guided biliary drainage

After reaching the cardia or the lesser curvature of the stomach, for the transgastric approach, or the duodenal bulb, for the transduodenal one, intrahepatic left and extrahepatic bile ducts were punctured with a 19-gouge needle and the access was confirmed the injection of contrast under fluoroscopy to obtain an anterograde cholangiogram. A 0.035-inch guide was advanced into the selected bile duct and under EUS and fluoroscopic view a stent was placed through the hepatogastrostomy between a left bile duct and the gastric lumen or through the choledochoduodenostomy between the common bile duct and the duodenal lumen.
