A novel integrated inside biliary stent and nasobiliary drainage catheter system for biliary drainage (with video)

AbstractEndoscopic biliary drainage (BD) has been commonly performed in patients with biliary obstruction. Endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) is the safest technique [1]. ENBD is also a feasible method for preoperative BD in patients with perihilar biliary obstruction [2, 3]. When patients develop acute cholangitis from internal BD, currently, ENBD placement or endoscopic biliary stenting (EBS) replacement is required.
