Endoscopic ultrasound-guided bridging technique for treatment of biliary-enteric anastomotic stenosis after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Biliary-enteric anastomotic stenosis is one of the main long-term complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy, with an incidence of 2%-8%. Although the relevant reports and studies are relatively few, the consequences such as biliary obstruction and refractory cholangitis seriously affect the quality of life of patients. In this case, the patient is not willing to receive conventional surgery again. This paper provides a bridge technique of EUS-guided Biliary Drainage (EUS-BD) to treat biliary-enteric anastomotic stenosis and solve the problem of obstructive jaundice in the patient.
