    This study introduces a novel combined peroral-transhepatic approach for palliation of malignant biliary obstruction. This technique successfully deploys larger endoprostheses, improving long-term patency compared to traditional methods.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Interventional Radiology
    • Hepatobiliary Surgery

    Background:

    • Malignant biliary obstruction often requires palliative interventions.
    • Traditional transhepatic endoprosthesis placement involves large, painful tracts.
    • Endoscopic biliary stents may lack long-term patency.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel combined peroral-transhepatic approach for biliary endoprosthesis placement.
    • To evaluate the feasibility of deploying large endoprostheses via this technique.
    • To offer an alternative for achieving long-term palliation of malignant biliary obstruction.

    Main Methods:

    • A combined peroral-transhepatic technique was developed.
    • Large endoprostheses were advanced through the alimentary tract into the biliary tree.

  • This approach aimed to bypass the need for large hepatic parenchymal tracks.
  • Main Results:

    • The combined peroral-transhepatic approach was used successfully.
    • Large endoprostheses were effectively delivered into the biliary tree.
    • This method offers a less invasive alternative to traditional transhepatic procedures.

    Conclusions:

    • The combined peroral-transhepatic approach is a viable method for palliation of malignant biliary obstruction.
    • This technique allows for the placement of larger endoprostheses, potentially improving long-term outcomes.
    • Further research should explore the long-term efficacy and safety of this innovative approach.
