Abstract

Pancreatobiliary malignancies have poor prognosis, and many patients are inoperable at the time of diagnosis. When surgical resection is impossible, systemic chemotherapy or radiotherapy is traditionally conducted with trial of immunotherapy or gene therapy lately. With the rapid development of endoscopic instruments and accessories in recent years, not only endoscopic early detection, characterization, and staging but also endoscopic palliative management of the pancreatobiliary malignancies is expanding the horizons. Endoscopic management is often preferred due to similar efficacy to surgical management with less morbidity. Here, we review the methodology and treatment outcome of various endoscopic management strategies in pancreatobiliary malignancies including endoscopic complication management, local palliative therapy, endoscopy-assisted therapy, and pain control utilizing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography or endoscopic ultrasound.
