Description
Summary:Furthermore, additional endoscopic stent removal is required after insertion of conventional biliary stent for short-term biliary drainage, increasing medical costs. [...]we have developed a biliary spontaneous dislodgement spiral stent (BSDSS), which was made of thermoplastic polyurethane and can be dislodged and evacuated spontaneously after short-term biliary drainage [Figure 1]. [...]a total of 166 patients participated in randomization, including 83 patients in the BSDSS group and 83 patients in the control group [Supplementary Figure 1, http://links.lww.com/CM9/B968]. The median post-ERCP hospital stay was 4 days (IQR = 3) in the BSDSS group and 3 days (IQR = 2) in the control group, without significant difference (P = 0.184). The price of BSDSS is also comparable to that of conventional stents. [...]routine placement of BSDSS for preventing PEC and PEP is efficient and necessary, especially for patients with high risk of PEC and PEP.
