ABSTRACT
Endoscopic transpapillary biliary stenting via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is the preferred therapy for benign and malignant distal biliary obstruction. In cases of failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, endoscopic ultrasound-guided choledochoduodenostomy has been shown to be as effective as percutaneous methods with an improved safety profile. Despite its efficacy, it is complicated by stent occlusion in 9%-26% of cases. To our knowledge, this is the first case in which biliary obstruction was relieved by performing a rendezvous procedure utilizing a pre-existing choledochoduodenostomy.
