Core Tip	Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has been restricted due to limited data and dedicated devices to perform safely without multi-step processes. We report a pilot study of a modified tapered metal tip and low profile introducer for one-step EUS-BD in a new experimental biliary dilatation porcine model. EUS-guided hepaticoenterostomy using a novel dedicated device for one-step EUS-BD system (DEUS) in an experimental bile duct dilatation porcine model might be technically feasible and effective. One-step stent insertion and deployment precluded the need for additional fistula dilation devices for graded dilation or needle cautery incision, without involving complex procedures or DEUS-related complications.
