“…The technique, interpretation and procedure all favor EUS being performed by an experienced ERCP endoscopist [48,49]. The technique of performing EUS in the duodenum with side-viewing instruments needs experience that can be achieved by training similar movements with duodenoscopes.…”

In this 14th document in a series of papers entitled “Controversies in Endoscopic Ultrasound” we discuss various aspects of EUS-guided biliary drainage that are debated in the literature and in practice. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography is still the reference technique for therapeutic biliary access, but EUS-guided techniques for biliary access and drainage have developed into safe and highly effective alternative options. However, EUS-guided biliary drainage techniques are technically demanding procedures for which few training models are currently available. Different access routes require modifications to the basic technique and specific instruments. In experienced hands, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage is also a good alternative. Therefore, in this paper, we compare arguments for different options of biliary drainage and different technical modifications.
