Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of EUS-guided antegrade stenting combined with hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-AS+HGS) as a biliary drainage method in patients with unresectable malignant biliary obstruction in whom transpapillary treatment is not feasible. A multicenter prospective design will be employed, and outcomes will be compared with historical data of EUS-HGS using metal stents.
