- Abstract
In patients considered high risk of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, percutaneous gallbladder drainage is traditionally considered firstline treatment option. Recent evidence supports endoscopic gallbladder drainage as a safe and feasible alternate option. We describe a case of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery patient with acute cholecystitis and choledocholithiasis with unsuccessful laparoscopic cholecystectomy because of difficult operative field, underwent successful single-session endoscopic ultrasound-directed transgastric endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic ultrasound-guided transmural gallbladder drainage at our institution.
