Bridging stenting significantly improves stent patency in patients with malignant hilar biliary obstruction.
The case demonstrates successful use of an endosonographically created route for stenting across multiple metallic stents.
This method can be a viable alternative to traditional endoscopic transpapillary drainage.
The findings suggest that bridging stenting can be effective even with surgically altered anatomy.
