We report the effectiveness of a newly developed plastic stent for preventing bile leakage after endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided antegrade stenting. This treatment was performed on a 59-year-old woman with malignant obstructive jaundice caused by peritoneal metastasis. First, we attempted transpapillary drainage using short-type single-balloon enteroscopy-assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, but we could not achieve it. We then attempted EUS-guided antegrade stenting through the intrahepatic bile duct from the esophagojejunal anastomosis. We successfully inserted uncovered metallic stents for common bile duct and a newly plastic stent for hepaticojejunostomy from the antegrade approach. There were no adverse events after the treatment.

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided interventions have revolutionized the management of malignant biliary obstruction (MBO) and gastric outlet obstruction (GOO), providing minimally invasive alternatives with improved outcomes. These procedures have significantly reduced the need for high-risk surgical interventions or percutaneous alternatives and have provided effective palliative care for patients with advanced gastrointestinal and bilio-pancreatic malignancies. EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) techniques, including hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS), choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS), and antegrade stenting (EUS-AS), offer high technical and clinical success rates, with a good safety profile particularly when Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is not feasible.

Article Synopsis
- *The Subcommittee defined five types of I-EUS procedures based on their purpose and method: EUS-guided sampling, EUS-guided through-the-needle examination, EUS-guided drainage/anastomosis, ESCR procedures, and EUS-guided delivery.
- *The proposed classifications aim to clarify I-EUS procedures and will be updated as new techniques and concepts arise in the field.*

EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) is one of the preferred methods in biliary drainage where ERCP fails or is contraindicated. The clinical outcomes of EUS-HGS are not well studied because of variability in procedure technique. We conducted a search of multiple electronic databases and conference proceedings from inception through January 2023.

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) includes EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS), EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS), EUS-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD), EUS-guided antegrade stenting (EUS-AG) and EUS-guided rendezvous (EUS-RV). While EUS-HGS, EUS-CDS and EUS-GBD are transluminal drainage procedures, EUS-AG is a traspapillary drainage procedure and EUS-RV is a procedure intended to facilitate endoscopic retrograde cholangio pancreatography (ERCP) in instances of failed cannulation. These procedures were initially developed as options for endoscopic salvage of failed ERCP, but have evolved to become first-line interventions also for select indications over time as the technique and expertise improved.

Background: Few studies have compared endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided hepaticogastrostomy (HGS) with EUS-guided antegrade metal stent placement (AGMS). The purpose of this study was to compare times to recurrent biliary obstruction (TRBO) in patients who underwent HGS using metal stents (MS) and those who underwent AGMS keeping access routes with plastic stents (AGMS-AR).
Methods: This study retrospectively evaluated consecutive patients who underwent HGS or AGMS between September 2016 and December 2022.
