Endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) is effective for treating cholecystitis [1] [2]; however, its application is challenging in patients with surgically altered anatomy [3]. In such patients, the forward-viewing echoendoscope (FV-EUS) is useful [4]. Here, we report a case of a patient who underwent EUS-GBD using FV-EUS after Billroth II gastrectomy.
