1
There was no early dysfunction associated with endoscopic biliary drainage.
2
In this series, endoscopic biliary drainage is shown to be safe and effective management for these patients.
3
After admission, the patient had an episode of obstructive jaundice that was treated by retrograde biliary drainage.
4
Conclusions: The results in the EHBD patients suggest that the addition of ILBT after biliary drainage prolongs survival.
5
Response to standard therapies for ICP is often incomplete; BA sequestering therapy or naso- biliary drainage may be effective.
6
Discussion: Patients who undergo preoperative external biliary drainage for severe jaundice might have impaired production of coagulation factors.
7
Conclusions: IDUS prior to biliary drainage would be useful in demonstrating longitudinal extension of extrahepatic bile duct carcinoma.
8
The patients who did not have track embolization performed had biliary drainage catheters removed over a guide wire.
9
Two liver transplantation patients are reported who experienced severe hemobilia following percutaneous placement of a transhepatic biliary drainage catheter.
10
So, the Couinaud segments are how we anatomically divide the liver based on its blood supply and its biliary drainage.
11
It achieves biliary drainage with an acceptable risk to benefit ratio in the majority of patients with distal malignant biliary obstruction.
12
Percutaneous track embolization after removal of biliary drainage catheters decreases patient's perception of pain and decreases the amount of required analgesia.
13
We investigated if the different biliary drainage methods affected postoperative survival and mode of recurrence after median observation period of 82 months.
14
Endoscopic biliary drainage was performed in 123 patients and ultrasound guided percutaneous biliary drainage in 57 patients.
15
Non-surgical methods to treat patients with inoperable malignant biliary obstruction are endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage and ultrasound guided percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage.
16
Background and purpose: Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage remains a painful procedure in many cases despite the routine use of large amounts of intravenous sedation.
