| pubmed-article:7433689 | pubmed:abstractText | The authors describe a method involving percutaneous transhepatic placement of T tubes for patients with jaundice due to a malignant obstruction. These rubber tubes have a larger caliber than standard polyethylene catheters and consequently, provide better drainage, thus minimizing the the occurrence of cholangitis due to debris obstructing the drainage tube. | lld:pubmed |
