The first Asia-Pacific consensus recommendations for endoscopic and interventional management of hilar cholangiocarcinoma were published in 2013. Since then, new evidence on the role of endoscopy for management of malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO) has emerged. To update the recommendation, we reviewed the literature using a PICO (population/intervention/comparison/outcomes) framework and created consensus statements. The expert panel voted anonymously using the modified Delphi method and all final statements were evaluated for the quality of evidence and strength of recommendation. The important points with inadequate supporting evidence were classified as key concepts. There were seven statements and five key concepts that reached consensus. The statements and key concepts dealt with multiple aspects of endoscopy-based management in MHBO starting from diagnosis, strategies and options for biliary drainage, management of recurrent biliary obstruction, management of cholecystitis after biliary stenting, and adjunctive treatment before stenting. Although the recommendations may assist physicians in planning the treatment for MHBO patients, they should not replace the decision of a multidisciplinary team in the management of individual patients.
