Brief Summary
Patients with obstructive jaundice due to periampullary tumor can temporarily be relieved of their jaundice with transpapillary stenting at endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP) prior to operation. Usually plastic stents are used. Hypothesis: Self expanding metallic stents offer a be a better alternative for preoperative stenting in patients with obstructive jaundice due to periampullary tumour obstruction.
