Endoskopisk ultralydvejledt rendezvous til intern draenage ved galdevejsobstruktion
Sammanfattning
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP) is currently standard treatment for biliary drainage. Endoscopic ultrasound
guided rendezvous (EUS-RV) is a novel method to overcome an unsuccessful biliary drainage procedure. Under endoscopic
ultrasound guidance a guidewire is passed via a needle from the stomach or duodenum to the common bile duct and from there
on to the duodenum enabling ERCP. With a relatively high rate of success EUS-RV should be considered as an alternative to
biliary drainage and surgical intervention.
