Successful bridging drainage achieved in malignant hilar biliary obstruction via a new slim-delivery system.
In Case 1, a large pancreatic head cancer patient underwent EUS-HGS and resolved cholangitis effectively.
Utilizing a slim-delivery system, EUS-HGS allowed smooth passage through challenging V-shaped hilar bile ducts.
The findings underscore the importance of advanced stent systems in complex biliary interventions.
