About this study

Official title: The Efficacy and Safety of Endoscopic Scissors Cutting Nasobiliary Ducts in the Treatment of Malignant Hilar Biliary Tract Stenosis

The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of endoscopic scissors cutting nasobiliary ducts in the treatment of malignant hilar biliary tract stenosis

Read the detailed description

The early diagnosis of hilar bile duct stenosis is difficult, and when the patient is diagnosed, the opportunity for surgical radical resection is lost, resulting in a poor prognosis. Effective palliative treatment can significantly improve their quality of life and survival time. The method of cutting nasobiliary ducts with endoscopic scissors has many advantages. Firstly, there are multiple lateral foramen of the nasobiliary duct, which increases the drainage area. Secondly, the nasobiliary duct can be retained in the secondary bile duct, which is difficult to achieve with a conventional stent. The use of nasobiliary ducts can also reduce the difficulty of converting from external drainage to internal drainage.

Being tested
Endoscopic nasobiliary duct cutting, Bilateral plastic stent
Keywords
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography, Nasobiliary Duct, Stent, Endoscopic Drainage

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Endoscopic nasobiliary duct cuttingDevice

    Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic nasobiliary duct placement and drainage are conducted first. Upon achieving a postoperative state marked by satisfactory nasobiliary duct drainage and overall patient stability, the procedure entails the employment of endoscopic scissors. The tools are applied to make an incision on the external segment of the nasobiliary duct, positioned beyond the aperture of the primary duodenal papilla. Then extracting the severed nasobiliary duct and retaining the portion inside the duct.

  • Bilateral plastic stentDevice

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The occurrence of cholangitis

    Cholangitis that occurred within 1 month after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Clinical success

    Clinical success was defined that the decrease in the total bilirubin level to less than 50% of the pretreatment value within 1 week or to less than 75% within 1 month.

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Re-intervention

    Re-intervention was defined that endoscopic or percutaneous procedure to improve biliary drainage for jaundice or cholangitis after successful placement.

    Measured: 6 month

  2. Adverse events

    ERCP-related adverse events

    Measured: 1 month
