    This study shows that percutaneous endoprosthesis insertion effectively drains bile internally in patients with obstructive jaundice. This minimally invasive technique offers advantages over external drainage for selected cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Interventional Radiology

    Background:

    • Obstructive jaundice poses significant clinical challenges.
    • External percutaneous drainage can be cumbersome and associated with complications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous endoprosthesis insertion for internal bile drainage in patients with inoperable obstructive jaundice.

    Main Methods:

    • Percutaneous insertion of an endoprosthesis was performed in eight patients with inoperable obstructive jaundice.
    • The endoprosthesis allowed for internal bile drainage directly into the bowel.

    Main Results:

    • Successful internal bile drainage was achieved in all eight patients.
    • The procedure demonstrated advantages compared to external percutaneous drainage.

    Conclusions:

    • Percutaneous endoprosthesis insertion is a viable and advantageous option for internal bile drainage in selected patients with obstructive jaundice.
    • This technique warrants consideration in cases where external drainage is less suitable.
