Replacement of the main bile duct by bioprosthesis in an experimental porcine model (24-month results)
The bioprosthesis acted as a scaffold for tissue regeneration without compromising biliary function. Remnants of the bioprosthesis were observed but did not affect biliary excretion in the 24-month porcine model. This study highlights the bioprosthesis's potential in bile duct reconstruction, offering a safe and effective option for maintaining biliary continuity.
