Optimal endoscopic drainage strategy for unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction: Itaru Naitoh, Tadahisa Inoue; Clin Endosc 2023;56(2):135-142. Published online January 5, 2023; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5946/ce.2022.150

Endoscopic biliary drainage strategies for managing unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction differ in terms of stent type, drainage area, and deployment method. However, the optimal endoscopic drainage strategy remains unclear. Uncovered self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) are the preferred type because of their higher functional success rate, longer time to recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO), and fewer cases of reintervention than plastic stents (PS). Other PS subtypes and covered SEMS, which feature a longer time to RBO than PS, can be removed during reintervention for RBO. Bilateral SEMS placement is associated with a longer time to RBO and a longer survival time than unilateral SEMS placement. Unilateral drainage is acceptable if a drainage volume of greater than 50% of the total liver volume can be achieved. In terms of deployment method, no differences were observed in clinical outcomes between side-by-side (SBS) and stent-in-stent deployment. Simultaneous SBS boasts a shorter procedure time and higher technical success rate than sequential SBS. This review of previous studies aimed to clarify the optimal endoscopic biliary drainage strategy for unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction.

Endoscopic Evaluation of Biliary Strictures: Current and Emerging Techniques: Roy Huynh, Corinne Owers, Christopher Pinto, Thuy-My Nguyen, Titus Kwok; Clin Endosc 2021;54(6):825-832. Published online May 27, 2021; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5946/ce.2021.048

Abstract PDF PubReader ePub

The diagnosis of biliary strictures in clinical practice can be challenging. Discriminating between benign and malignant biliary strictures is important to prevent the morbidity and mortality associated with incorrect diagnoses. Missing a malignant biliary stricture may delay surgery, resulting in poor prognostic outcomes. Conversely, it has been demonstrated that approximately 20% of patients who undergo surgery for suspected biliary malignancies have a benign etiology on histopathology. Traditional tissue sampling using endoscopic retrograde cholangiography does not always produce a definitive diagnosis, with a considerable proportion of cases remaining as indeterminate biliary strictures. Recent advances in endoscopic techniques have the potential to improve the diagnostic and prognostic accuracy of biliary strictures.

Focused Review Series: EUS-Guided Therapeutic Interventions

Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Biliary Access, with Focus on Technique and Practical Tips: Woo Hyun Paik, Do Hyun Park; Clin Endosc 2017;50(2):104-111. Published online March 30, 2017; DOI: https://doi.org/10.5946/ce.2017.036

Abstract PDF PubReader ePub

In 1980, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) was introduced as a diagnostic tool for evaluation of the pancreas. Since the introduction of curvilinear-array echoendoscopy, EUS has been used for a variety of gastrointestinal interventions, including fine needle aspiration, tumor ablation, and pancreatobiliary access. One of the main therapeutic roles of EUS is biliary drainage as an alternative to endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage (ERBD) or percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD). This article summarizes three different methods of EUS-guided biliary access, with focus on technique and practical tips.
