Summary

The rationale of the study is to explore the safety and efficacy of endoluminal radiofrequency ablation prior metal stent insertion in patiens with malignant biliary stenosis.

Conditions

  • Radiofrequency Ablation
  • Biliary Tract Cancer
  • Stent Complication
  • Brachytherapy

Interventions

DEVICE

Habib™ EndoHPB; Boston Scientific, US; former EMcision Ltd., UK

Randomised patients in selected arm received endoluminal RFA by 8F catheter (Habib™ EndoHPB; Boston Scientific, US; former EMcision Ltd., UK) before stenting procedure. Repeated ablations were processed through stenotic areas of bile ducts (10W, 90-120s, Rita 1500, Angiodynamics Ltd), all drained biliary tracts were used for introducing catheter and performance of ablation. Ablation procedure was followed with uncovered self-expandable metal stent insertion.
