Percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy-assisted procedures for the management of postoperative benign bilioenteric anastomotic strictures with or without biliary stones
PTCS-assisted procedures are efficacious and safe for the management of BBAS and concomitant biliary stones. Placement of an indwelling PTCS catheter across the anastomosis after stricture dilation improves the anastomotic patency.
