Core Tip	For inoperable malignant biliary obstruction, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) should be selected before EUS-guided rendezvous technique or percutaneous tran-shepatic biliary drainage. EUS-BD is usually the first choice for patients having altered anatomy with malignant lower biliary obstruction. If both EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) and EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) are available, EUS-CDS should be selected. EUS-HGS has numerous potential complications compared to EUS-CDS. EUS-BD may well become a first-line biliary drainage procedure for malignant lower biliary obstruction in the near future.
