Endoluminal ablation for malignant biliary duct stenosis
Original language description
Learning Objectives Endoluminal radiofrequency ablation is a useful palliative method for patients with malignant stenosis of the bile ducts. It can be used for ablation before self-expandable metal stent placement and in dealing with stent occlusion. Thermal injuries of the bile ducts and surrounding vasculature are possible complications. Background The optimal palliative method for patients with bile duct malignancies is metal stent placement. The use of covered self-expanding stents does not seem to be an appropriate solution for resolving hilar strictures. However, the most frequent complication of uncovered self-expandable metal stents is their closure. To prolong metal stent patency, photodynamic techniques and brachytherapy are used. Nowadays, endoluminal radiofrequency ablation is another possibility. Clinical Findings/Procedure After the endoluminal ablation procedure, a lower rate of stent occlusion and early stent occlusion (up to 2 months of stent placement) is found.
