    Transhepatic-percutaneous drainage effectively manages obstructive jaundice, offering preoperative relief and permanent solutions for non-surgical patients. This minimally invasive procedure is safe, efficient, and recommended alongside diagnostic imaging.

    Area of Science:

    • Interventional Radiology
    • Gastroenterology
    • Hepatobiliary Surgery

    Context:

    • Obstructive jaundice presents diverse etiologies and significant clinical challenges.
    • Effective biliary drainage is crucial for patient management, impacting morbidity and mortality.
    • Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) plays a key diagnostic role.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of transhepatic-percutaneous drainage for obstructive jaundice.
    • To delineate the indications for percutaneous biliary drainage.
    • To advocate for the timely implementation of percutaneous drainage post-diagnosis.

    Summary:

    • The study reports on 23 cases of biliary tract drainage using a transhepatic-percutaneous approach for obstructive jaundice.

  • Indications include preoperative jaundice alleviation, permanent drainage in non-surgical candidates, and relief of anastomotic pressure.
  • The procedure is characterized as minimally invasive, technically straightforward, and associated with a low complication rate.

    • Impact:

    • Transhepatic-percutaneous drainage offers an effective and safe method for managing obstructive jaundice.
    • Early implementation of this technique can improve patient outcomes and reduce the severity of cholestasis.
    • This approach supports better preoperative optimization and long-term management strategies for complex hepatobiliary conditions.
