    Endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage (ERBD) offers an effective method for biliary decompression, with a high success rate and manageable complications. This technique has become the preferred non-operative approach, largely replacing percutaneous transhepatic drainage.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Interventional Endoscopy
    • Biliary Interventions

    Background:

    • Biliary obstruction requires effective non-operative decompression.
    • Percutaneous transhepatic drainage (PTD) has historically been used but is associated with complications.
    • Endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage (ERBD) presents an alternative approach.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ERBD as a primary non-operative biliary decompression technique.
    • To compare ERBD outcomes with those of PTD.

    Main Methods:

    • ERBD procedures were attempted in 34 patients.
    • Success rates, stent patency, complications, and need for stent replacement were recorded.
    • Follow-up duration ranged from one to 14 months.

    Main Results:

    • ERBD was successful in 30 of 34 attempts (88.2%).
    • 16 patients survived with functioning stents; 8 died with functioning stents.
    • Six stents required replacement due to sepsis or rising bilirubin; one immediate complication of sepsis occurred.

    Conclusions:

    • ERBD is a highly successful and safe primary method for non-operative biliary decompression.
    • ERBD has largely replaced PTD in our institution due to fewer complications.
    • PTD is now reserved for cases where ERBD fails.
