Core Tip Palliative therapies for malignant biliary strictures are crucial for a disease that so often presents with surgical ineligibility. In this paper, we highlight both the established and more novel endoscopic palliative approaches for these types of strictures. Perhaps the most established of these therapies is endoscopic biliary deprecompression via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), which is notably approached differently in extrahepatic and intrahepatic strictures. In cases where traditional ERCP fails or is not feasible, endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage has quickly become the second-line intervention. Finally, we end by discussing the literature behind more novel therapies, namely intraductal radiofrequency ablation and photodynamic therapy.
