Core Tip
Core Tip: Pancreato-biliary disorders sometimes require multi-approach interventional procedures. Therapeutic interventional endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has emerged as a potential alternative to surgical or percutaneous approach. Application of EUS-guided approach resulted in lower adverse events and re-intervention rates, with similar high technical and clinical success rates in comparison to percutaneous and surgical approaches, especially in patients with history of failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography attempt. Comparison between EUS-guided and surgical approach in pancreatic fluid collection drainage demonstrated commensurable success rates and shorter length of hospital stay in favor of EUS-guided approach. Application of EUS is a potential field in replacing surgery to manage gastric outlet obstruction.
