Abstract:
ObjectiveTo study the effect of interventional stent placement in patients of malignant obstructive jaundice(MOJ).MethodsTwenty eight MOJ patients were divided into three groups receiving endoscopic retrograde plastic stent placement, percutaneous transhepatic expandable stent placement (mental stent), and mental stent combined with intraarterial chemotherapy, respectively.Results Patent drainage lasted for over 3 mos in 60% of patients with plastic stent. The median survival was 4 5 months. In the group of mental stent placement drainage remained patent for over 10 months in 50% of patients, with a median survival of 6 5 months. Whereas in the group of combined intraarterial chemotherapy, 10 mos patency of the stent was 66 7% with a median survival of 8 8 months. ConclusionThe mental stent enables long patent drainage, and longer survival time.
