Abstract:
Biliary stricture is a common clinical disease with various etiologies, which can be divided into benign and malignant biliary stricture. Accurate identification of benign and malignant nature of biliary stricture is of great importance for the determination of etiology, treatment and prognosis. At present, there is no consensus on the methods for diagnosis of biliary stricture, and the selection of diagnostic tools in clinical practice is diverse and without uniform standard. This article reviewed the progress in research on diagnosis of benign and malignant biliary stricture.
