Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Incompletely recovered from any side effects of previous biliary drainage procedures. Patients are required to be off antibiotic treatment for at least 5 days.
- Any contra-indication for major liver surgery (e.g. ECOG/WHO score ≥3).
- Technical contra-indications for endobiliary drainage (e.g. previous gastrojejunostomy).
Other
- Distance between stricture and sphincter less than 2 cm.
- Refusal to provide informed consent.
Who the study is looking for
- 18 years or older.
- Capable of providing written and oral informed consent.
- Presumed perihilar cholangiocarcinoma.
- Biliary obstruction in the future liver remnant.
- Drainage naïve patients: total bilirubin \>50 umol/L
- Patients with previous endobiliary drainage procedures: persistently rising total bilirubin \>50 umol/L (i.e. no stent placed or insufficient draining stent) or persistent biliary dilatation in the future liver remnant on imaging (i.e. previous stent placed in contralateral side of the liver).
