Abstract

Advances in the field of interventional endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) have provided greater access to the pancreas and surrounding structures. Similar to the drainage of pancreatic fluid collections such as pseudocysts and walled-off pancreatic necrosis (WON) from the stomach or duodenum through endoscopic cystenterostomy or cystgastrostomy, the principle can be applied to access and drain the pancreatic duct. EUS-guided pancreatic duct drainage (EUS-PDD) is an alternative or second-line procedure which is used to drain the pancreatic duct when endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), the primary modality for pancreatic duct drainage, has been unsuccessful or cannot be performed due to anatomic limitations [1].
