    The main indication forpercutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) is usually cholestasis caused by tumors or post-inflammatory stenosis.


    Percutaneous transhepaticbiliary drainage (PTBD) The main indication for percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) is usually cholestasis caused by tumors or post-inflammatory stenosis.


    The most serious complications of PTBD are pancreatitis, hemorrhage, bile duct and hepatic artery or portal vein fistula, pseudoaneurysm, bile leakage, and pneumothorax or hemothorax caused by puncture.


    Recently, a study published in the journal European Radiology compared the success rate, technical complexity, and complication rate of PTBD in patients with dilated and non-dilated bile ducts.


     

    In this retrospective analysis, we evaluated all continuous PTBD conducted by our department within 5 years.

    In this study, 187 patients underwent a total of 253 surgeries.

    Compared with PTBD with dilated bile ducts, although PTBD with non-dilated bile ducts is more technically complex, the overall complication rate is similar, but the incidence of bleeding complications is higher.
