Evaluation of Sequential Stent Addition vs. Incremental Dilation & Stent Exchange for Management of Anastomotic Biliary Strictures After Liver Transplantation

NCT03229655 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2018-09-11

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Prospective, randomized comparison of the incremental dilation and stent exchange vs. sequential stent addition approaches for management of anastomotic biliary strictures will facilitate optimal management of patients who develop anastomotic biliary strictures after liver transplantation.

Conditions

  • Anastomotic Stenosis
  • Biliary Stricture

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Protocol for increasing number of stents across the anastomosis

Sequential placement of straight plastic biliary stents across the duct-to-duct anastomosis without dilation or stent exchange. Multiple ERCPs will be performed with addition of a single stent at each ERCP until the final ERCP when all stents will be removed.
