EUS-GUIDED biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has recently gained widespread acceptance as a minimally invasive alternative method for biliary drainage. However, the risks of encountering recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) after EUS-BD have increased due to the growing clinical experience of EUS-BD and prolonged prognosis of the underlying disease. Previous studies have shown that the incidence of RBO following EUS-BD ranges from 11% to 25%. Nevertheless, literature on the efficacy of reintervention of RBO after EUS-GUIDED hepaticogastrostomy (EUS-HGS) and case reports describing the procedural details of endoscopic reintervention following EUS-HGS are lacking.
