NCT04170933

Brief Summary

Biliary stricture is a common complication after end-to-end biliary anastomosis, especially after liver transplantation. This study is designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of magnetic recanalization technique, a newly clinical method, for treating biliary anastomotic stricture.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time duration of biliary recanalization, d (days)

    Time period for recanalization of the bile duct

    From date of treatment (two magnets mated together) until the date of drop-off or the two magnets from the biliary tract or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of stricture recurrence

    From date of drop-off of the two magnets until the date of biliary stricture recurrence or end of the follow-up or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 12 months

Study Arms (1)

Magnetic recanalization

EXPERIMENTAL

The subjects in this group will be treated by magnetic recanalization

Procedure: Magnetic recanalization

Interventions

1. Establish a percutaneous transhepatic cholangio drainage (PTCD) fistula. 2. Perform endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST). 3. Place one magnet above the stricture through the PTCD fistula. 4. Introduce another magnet below the stricture through the common bile duct with ERCP. 5. Place the magnets at the appropriate point to attract each other. 6. The patient will be strictly followed, and the magnets will be taken out out of the mouth by the thread connected with the magnets. 7. A plastic stent will be placed in the bile duct for lasting support.
