Core Tip	Failure of endoscopic retrograde cho?lan?giopancreatography occurs in 5%-10% of the cases from many etiologies. However, there are few alternative options for biliary drainage up to the present time. Percutaneous biliary drainage and surgical bypass have their own drawbacks. Endoscopic ultrasound guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) is a new platform with a very high technical and clinical success rate with an acceptable complications. This review focused on the techniques, instruments including tips and tricks of this treatment modality. EUS-BD would become another alternative options for biliary drainage for both benign and malignant conditions in the future.
