Biliary Strictures Post Liver Transplantation
Trial Comparing Kaffes Stent With Plastic Prosthesis in the Treatment of Anastomotic Biliary Strictures Post Orthotopic Liver Transplantation
Biliary anastomotic strictures (post liver transplantation) occur in 15-20 % of the cases. Biliary stenting using plastic prosthesis during a period of 1 year is the treatment of choice.
