This review article explores the use of a minimally invasive procedure called endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) as a salvage technique for cases of unsuccessful biliary drainage (BD) with conventional approach. EUS-GBD has been shown to be effective in relieving biliary obstruction in patients who have failed other treatment options such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and EUS BD. The article summarizes the safety and efficacy of EUS-GBD in various studies, and discusses its potential advantages and limitations compared to other drainage options. The authors aim to offer a comprehensive overview of the potential role of EUS-GBD for various indications as a rescue therapy for malignant biliary obstruction when conventional treatment options fail, and to provide insights into the challenges and limitations associated with the procedure. |
