    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Biliary tract interventions can be done via surgical drainage, percutaneous liver access, or peroral duodenal routes. Percutaneous methods offer effective drainage for obstructions and palliation, with a new combined approach minimizing tract size.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Interventional Radiology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • The biliary tract can be accessed via surgical drainage, percutaneous transhepatic, or peroral transduodenal routes.
    • Each approach presents unique advantages and limitations for managing biliary tract conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the different approaches for biliary tract intervention.
    • To highlight the efficacy and complications associated with each method.
    • To introduce a novel combined peroral/transhepatic approach for endoprosthesis insertion.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on biliary tract interventions.
    • Description of surgical drainage, percutaneous transhepatic, and peroral transduodenal techniques.
    • Discussion of a new combined peroral/transhepatic approach.

    Main Results:

    • Surgical drainage offers high success rates (90%-95%) for retained stone removal in outpatients.
    • Percutaneous transhepatic approach is valuable for draining malignant obstructions and benign strictures, with hemorrhage as the most frequent complication (5%).
    • A new combined approach facilitates large endoprosthesis insertion via a smaller transhepatic tract.

    Conclusions:

    • Various approaches exist for biliary tract intervention, each suited for specific clinical scenarios.
    • Percutaneous techniques provide effective palliation and treatment options for biliary obstructions.
    • The combined peroral/transhepatic approach represents an advancement in endoprosthesis insertion, reducing invasiveness.
