| Description: |
Percutaneous bile duct imaging and intervention can be performed for various patient conditions. When it is needed, preoperative planning is required in order to define the access and type of intervention required for each particular situation. Post-intervention follow-up is mandatory in order to depict complications. According to the patient condition, intervention could include bile duct biopsy, drainage, and dilatation with or without stent placement which will be detailed in this chapter. Additionally, specific bile duct interventions in case of malignant biliary obstruction including need for biopsy, preoperative drainage, or when the tumour is inoperable will be discussed. Benign biliary obstruction includes a large spectrum of diseases such as benign bile duct stricture, stones, chronic pancreatitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, immunoglobulin G4-related sclerosing cholangitis, post-liver translation complications, infection, iatrogenic injures, and gall bladder drainage that are all covered in this chapter. |
