Core Tip
Core Tip: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided pancreatic drainage (EUS-PD) is an emerging therapeutic technique used to relieve symptoms caused by pancreatic duct obstruction and high pressure. It provides an effective alternative for cases where endoscopic retrograde pancreatography has failed. This review summarizes the latest research advancements and key procedural considerations of EUS-PD, offering practical guidance for clinicians.
