    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
    • Surgical Innovation
    • Biomaterials Science

    Context:

    • Biliary tract interventions are crucial for managing various liver and bile duct conditions.
    • Existing prosthetic devices face challenges like migration and obstruction.
    • The need for reliable and well-tolerated biliary prosthetics is significant.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of silicone biliary prosthetic devices.
    • To compare silicone prosthetics with percutaneous and endoscopic alternatives.
    • To assess outcomes in patients undergoing biliary bypass, transtumoral intubations, and post-excision reconstruction.

    Summary:

    • Silicone biliary prosthetics were used in 150 cases for bypass, intubation, and reconstruction.
    • The devices demonstrated excellent tolerability with low post-operative morbidity and mortality.
