ENDOSONOGRAPHY-GUIDED RESCUE PROCEDURES AFTER FAILED ERCP IN A PATIENT WITH PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMA

Procedimentos de resgate guiados por ecoendoscopia após falha na CPRE em paciente com adenocarcinoma ductal pancreático

HIGHLIGHTS

• The ERCP even when done by experienced professionals, fails in 10% of cases.

• Until the development of the EUS-BD, PTBD had a role as a rescue therapy, despite a high rate of adverse events.

• The EUS-BD is safe and has similar efficacy, when compared to PTBD and should be performed immediately after ERCP failure.

• A doctor with skills in both methods (ERCP/EUS) is needed to determine the best EUS-guided therapeutic option.
