    An 84-year-old female with an advanced pancreatic cancer underwent an ERCP and a fully covered metal stent was positioned just under the cystic duct insertion.Then an uncovered duodenal stent was placed. 3 months later she was hospitalized for severe cholangitis due to biliary stent occlusion and worsened duodenal infiltration. An EUS-guided drainage from the common bile duct such as a percutaneous one were not feasible. We performed an EUS-guided gallbladder drainage using an Hot AXIOS stent. The procedure was quick, safe and technically successful as a rescue therapy to treat a severe cholangitis in a patient with advanced pancreatic neoplasia.
