Abstract
Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is a malignant tumor originating from the extrahepatic bile duct including the hilar region to the lower bile duct of the common bile duct. With the development of interventional techniques and medical materials, percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD) or percutaneous transhepatic biliary stent implantation (PTBS) has become the main treatment to relieve biliary obstruction. However, the occurrence of postoperative complications seriously affects the prognosis of patients, and the combination of biliary stenting with local treatment has been found to significantly prolong the time to biliary patency. This article reviews the progress of PTCD/PTBS in the treatment of extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with obstructive jaundice, evaluates its clinical efficacy, and points out the current problems and posible solutions to provide more reference for subsequent related studies.
