-
Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Hepaticogastrostomy With or Without Antegrade Stenting for Malignant Distal Biliary Obstruction
This trial tests whether adding antegrade stenting to EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy helps longer-lasting relief of malignant distal biliary obstruction compared with hepaticogastrostomy alone in adults who cannot have ERCP.
-
12-mm Partially Covered vs Bare Self-Expandable Stents for Malignant Distal Biliary Obstruction
This study tests whether a 12-mm partially covered self-expandable stent works better than a 12-mm bare self-expandable stent for patients with unresectable malignant distal biliary obstruction who have already had PTBD.
-
Suprapapillary Metal Stent vs. Routine Drainage for Malignant Hilar Biliary Obstruction
This trial tests whether placing a self-expanding metal stent above the papilla works better than the standard transpapillary drainage for patients with cancer-caused bile duct blockage near the liver.
-
EUS-guided procedure for treating bile duct obstructions
This study is testing a new type of stent to help people with bile duct blockages who couldn't get relief from a standard procedure, to see if it works better and is safer.
