Abstract
- Percutaneous biliary dilation was done in 3 patients with benign strictures. The first case was 50-year-oldmale who had multiple intrahepatic stones with biliary stricture. The second 46-year-old female and the third25-year-old male suffered from recurrent cholangitis with benign stricture of anastomotic site aftercholedochojejunostomy. In the first case, a 6mm diameter Grunzig dilatation balloon catheter was introducedthrough the T-tube tract. In the second case, the stricture was dilated with two balloons of 5mm and 8 mm in eachdiameter sequentially thorugh the U-loop tract formed by surgically made jejunostomy and percutaneous transhepaticpuncture. In the third case, the dilatation catheter was introduced through the percutaneous transhepatic tract.Dilatation was made with a pressure of 5 to 10 atmospheres for 1 to 3 minutes duration for 3 times. In all 3cases, the structures were successfully dilated and in second and third cases internal stent was left across thelesion for prevention of restenosis.
