    Percutaneous biliary endoscopy offers a safe and effective approach for diagnosing and treating biliary conditions. This minimally invasive technique was successfully used for polyp debridement and stone removal.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
    • Minimally Invasive Surgery

    Background:

    • Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the standard for biliary tree interventions.
    • Percutaneous approaches are typically reserved for cases where ERCP is not feasible.

    Observation:

    • Two distinct cases involving complex biliary tree pathology were managed.
    • Case 1: Debridement of an atypical villoglandular polyp.
    • Case 2: Ultrasonic lithotripsy for intrahepatic stones.

    Findings:

    • The percutaneous route proved acceptable and feasible for both diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures.
    • Successful removal of biliary obstruction and pathological tissue was achieved.
    • Minimal invasiveness of the percutaneous approach was highlighted.

    Implications:

    • Percutaneous biliary endoscopy represents a viable alternative for selected patients with biliary tree disorders.
    • This approach expands therapeutic options for challenging hepatobiliary conditions.
    • Further research may establish percutaneous endoscopy as a first-line option in specific scenarios.
