AIM:To determine the utility of endoscopic ultrasoundguided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) with a fully covered self-expandable metal stent for managing malignant biliary stricture.METHODS:We collected data from 13 patients who presented with malignant biliary obstruction and underwent EUS-BD with a nitinol fully covered selfexpandable metal stent when endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) fails.EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CD) and EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HG) was performed in 9 patients and 4 patients,respectively.RESULTS:The technical and functional success rate was 92.3% (12/13) and 91.7% (11/12),respectively.Using an intrahepatic approach (EUS-HG,n =4),there was mild peritonitis (n =1) and migration of the metal stent to the stomach (n =1).With an extrahepatic approach (EUS-CD,n =10),there was pneumoperitoneum (n =2),migration (n =2),and mild peritonitis (n =1).All patients were managed conservatively with antibiotics.During follow-up (range,1-12 mo),there was re-intervention (4/13 cases,30.7%) necessitated by stent migration (n =2) and stent occlusion (n =2).CONCLUSION:EUS-BD with a nitinol fully covered self-expandable metal stent may be a feasible and effective treatment option in patients with malignant biliary obstruction when ERCP fails.
