NCT02787512

Brief Summary

Currently, routine preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) was not recommended. However, PBD is still necessary in case of patients with cholangitis or very high level of bilirubin or patients who are expected to receive delayed surgery. The aim of this clinical trial is to demonstrate non-inferiority of uncovered self-expandable metal stent to plastic stent for PBD by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with periampullary cancer undergoing curative intent pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Reintervention rate until operation

    Between preoperative biliary drainage and surgery, reintervention (re-preoperative biliary drainage) would be checked and analyzed.

    Between preoperative biliary drainage and surgery

  • Rate of decrease of total bilirubin

    Between preoperative biliary drainage and surgery

  • Time to operation

    Between preoperative biliary drainage and surgery

  • Time to hospital discharge after pancreaticoduodenectomy

    6 month

  • Mortality until 3 months after pancreaticoduodenectomy

    3 month
