This study aimed to determine the ideal position for self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement. It was found that placing the SEMS near the biliary hilar duct resulted in a longer patency period.
BACKGROUND Endoscopic biliary drainage using a self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) has been widely performed to treat distal malignant biliary obstruction (DMBO). However, the optimal position of the stent remains unclear. AIM To determine the ideal position for SEMS placement. METHODS In total, 135 DMBO patients underwent SEMS (uncovered or covered) placement over a ten-year period. A total of 127 patients with biliary obstruction between the junction of the cystic duct and Vater's papilla were enrolled. An SEMS was placed through the upper common bile duct 2 cm from the biliary hilar duct in 83 patients (Hilar group) or near the top of the biliary obstruction in 44 patients (Lower group). Technical and functional success, adverse events, and risk factors for SEMS dysfunction were evaluated. RESULTS The stent patency period was significantly longer in the Hilar group than in the Lower group (P value < 0.01). In multivariate analysis, the only statistically significant risk factor for SEMS dysfunction was being in the Lower group (hazard ratio: 9.94, 95% confidence interval: 2.25-44.0, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION A longer patency period was achieved by positioning the SEMS near the biliary hilar duct.(c) The Author(s) 2022. Published by Baishideng Publishing Group Inc. All rights reserved.
