“…Median stent patency was 150 days. Other recent reports of the Bonastent M-hilar stent describe technical success rates of 94.6% in 56 patients and 95.4% in 44 patients with median patency of 238 and 114 days respectively 44,45. In cases of stent occlusion, endoscopic revision was successful in 15/17 or 88.2% 44…”

Biliary stenting has evolved dramatically over the past 30 years. Advancements in stent design have led to prolonged patency and improved efficacy. However, biliary stenting is still affected by occlusion, migration, anatomical difficulties, and the need for repeat procedures. Multiple novel plastic biliary stent designs have recently been introduced with the primary goals of reduced migration and improved ease of placement. Self-expandable bioabsorbable stents are currently being investigated in animal models. Although not US Food and Drug Administration approved for benign disease, fully covered self-expandable metal stents are increasingly being used in a variety of benign biliary conditions. In malignant disease, developments are being made to improve ease of placement and stent patency for both hilar and distal biliary strictures. The purpose of this review is to describe recent developments and future directions of biliary stenting.
