Filter by:This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination treatment of Huaier granule and biliary drainage for malignant obstructive jaundice.
To explore the effects of pre-treatment with methylene blue on reduced perioperative vascular resistance in patients with obstructive jaundice.
The safety and efficacy of ω-3 fatty acid in patients with obstructive jaundice is not known. This study provided evidences that ω-3 fatty acid-based parenteral nutrition improved postoperative recovery for patients with obstructive jaundice.
Primary Objective: To document state-of- the-art multi-modality management of occluded biliary SEMS aiming to minimize number of reinterventions while providing symptom relief without procedure-related serious adverse events. NOTE: This study will be hypothesis-generating for an anticipated randomized controlled study (RCT) to compare outcomes of placement of a plastic stent inside the occluded SEMS to outcomes of the proposed multi-modality approach.
This study evaluates corticosteroids in the treatment of obstructive jaundice in autoimmune pancreatitis and/or immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related sclerosing cholangitis in adults. Half of participants will receive corticosteroids alone, while the other half will receive corticosteroids with biliary stent at the beginning.
This phase-2 study aims to evaluate feasibility, safety and efficacy of thermal ablation of biliary obstructive malignancies by means of radiofrequency ablation (RFA, ELRA, StarMed) during endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreaticography (ERCP) with primary intent to obtain palliative biliary drainage via stenting
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.
ABSTRACT: In patients with obstructive jaundice, multi-organ dysfunction may develop. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of ursodeoxycholic acid on liver functional restoration on patients with obstructive jaundice after surgical or endoscopic treatment. Patients with obstructive jaundice will be divided into two groups: (A) test group in which will be administered ursodeoxycholic acid twenty-four hours after endoscopic or surgical procedure and will last fourteen days, and (B) control group. Serum-testing will include determination of bilirubin, alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, gama-glutamyl transpeptidase, alkaline phosphatase, albumin, and cholesterol levels. These parameters will be determined one day prior endoscopic or surgical procedure, and on the third, fifth, seventh, tenth, twelfth and fourteenth days after endoscopic or surgical intervention. Our hypothesis is that patients with obstructive jaundice under treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid will have better outcome than patients in control group.
Compare the performance of full covered metal stents and plastic stents for preoperative biliary decompression
Internal biliary drainage using stent is used for malignant hilar obstruction such as cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and other malignancy including metastasis. Bilateral drainage is more physiologic and have more long patency than unilateral drainage. There are two methods of bilateral drainage: Y-stent and side by side. However there are no clinical data about comparing the effectiveness of these two methods. Therefore the investigators want to compare the clinical outcomes of two methods: Y-stent and side by side.
