Case Report: First case of percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy guided triple bridge drainage between multiple bile ducts for malignant hilar biliary obstruction
Case report shows successful biliary drainage in a patient with malignant hilar biliary obstruction, highlighting the role of percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy.
Key Points
Successful palliative biliary drainage improved patient jaundice after a triple-bridge procedure.
Stabilization was achieved with stents in three bile ducts, following failed ERCP interventions.
The use of ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy represents a novel approach.
This technique shows promise but requires more exploration in clinical environments.
