Unresectable Malignant Biliary Obstruction: Treatment by Self-Expandable Biliary Endoprostheses
The primary goal in the treatment of malignant obstruction is the relief of jaundice. Although operative biliary bypass is a reliable method of palliation, nonoperative palliation may be desirable in selected patients. We report our experience with forty-eight self expandable metallic biliary endoprostheses (Wallstent) percutaneously placed in 35 patients with irresectable malignant biliary obs...

This study was to evaluate the effect of combined intestinal and biliary stenting in the palliation of gastric outlet and biliary obstruction. METHODS Thirty-two patients with malignant gastric outlet and biliary obstruction underwe...
متن کاملProfiling Circulating and Urinary Bile Acids in Patients with Biliary Obstruction before and after Biliary Stenting
UNLABELLED Bile acids are considered as extremely toxic at the high concentrations reached during bile duct obstruction, but each acid displays variable cytotoxic properties. This study investigates how biliary obstruction and restoration of bile flow interferes with urinary and circulating levels of 17 common bile acids. Bile acids (conjugated and unconjugated) were quantified by liquid chroma...
متن کاملThe safety and efficacy of nasobiliary drainage versus biliary stenting in malignant biliary obstruction
BACKGROUND Preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) has been widely used to treat patients with malignant biliary obstruction. However, it is still unclear which method of PBD (endoscopic nasobiliary drainage or endoscopic biliary stenting) is more effective. Thus, we carried out a meta-analysis to compare the safety and efficacy of endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) and endoscopic biliary stent...
متن کاملComparing percutaneous primary and secondary biliary stenting for malignant biliary obstruction: A retrospective clinical analysis
PURPOSE Percutaneous transhepatic primary biliary stenting (PS) is an alternative to the widely used staged procedure (secondary biliary stenting, SS) for treating obstructive jaundice in cancer patients. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of PS and SS, a retrospective analysis was carried out. MATERIALS AND METHODS The percutaneous biliary stenting procedures performed between January 2000 ...
