Summary

This prospective, single-center, interventional study enrolled 400 cirrhotic patients with large or complex common bile duct (CBD) stones that could not be removed during an initial Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). The study compared four different plastic biliary stenting strategies (single 10 Fr, double 10 Fr, single 11.5 Fr, and single 10 Fr pigtail stents) to determine the optimal approach for facilitating successful stone clearance in a subsequent ERCP and minimizing complications in this high-risk patient population.
