Abstract:
Objective To explore the difficulty and strategy of percutaneous transheptic stenting for the junction of malignant hepatic duct obstruction. Method Twenty-three patients with highly malignant biliary obstruction received percutaneous transheptic biliary drainage (PTBD) by placement of stent and/or internal-external drainage tube. All the 23 patientws were followed up to determine the successful rate of surgery, the incidence of complications, decreased serum level of bilirubin, patency time of biliary stent and survival time. Results The initial operation was sucessful in 22 cases, accounting for 95.65%. Twenty-one patients had significant decline in total bilirubin (60%) and 2 had not (10%). The levels of alanine aminotransferase (GPT) and aspartate aminotransferase (GOT) decreased markedly and returned to nomral in an average of 18 d. After operation, 2 patients had fever,1 biliary tract bleeding, 6 pain in the right upper abodminal region, 1 localized peritonitis around the puncture point, 3 GPT increase and 1 drainage tube slip. There were no serious complications such as hemorrhea and biliary fistula etc. The symptoms of all these complications disappeared in 2 to 5 days through haemostasis, anti-inflammatory therapy and liver function protection. The median survival time was 8.5 months. Conclusion Although the merging of malignant hepatic duct obstruction stenting is difficult, try to pass through the obstruction by guide wire and master the right methods of operation can significantly improve the successful rate of surgery.
