“…13,23 Unfortunately, the procedure is associated with complication rates of 40-50% in retrospective studies with occlusion, dislodgement, cholangitis and peri-catheter leak being the most frequently reported complications. 18,24 In our study, at least one PTBD related complication was observed in 68% of patients. Peri-catheter bile leak (41.6 %), catheter slip out (30 %), catheter blockage (23.3 %) were the common complications.…”

“…In 15 patients (8.1%), drainage application was ineffective. (8) They also reported that repeat procedures were required in 24 (12.9%) patients. (8) Saluja et al compared unilateral PTBD and ES and reported that the successful stent insertion rate was higher in the PTBD group (93%) compared with the ES group (82%).…”

“…External biliary drainage is used in circumstances where palliative endoscopic or percutaneous internal stenting for malignant obstruction has failed [2, 3]. Complications of EBD include pain, pericatheter leak, cholangitis, biliary peritonitis, hemorrhage, and, rarely, persistent high output.…”
