pubmed:abstractText
A nonoperative method of palliation was used in four patients with malignant obstructive jaundice in whom biliary endoprosthesis could not be placed endoscopically. A guide wire was manipulated through the lesion by a percutaneous transhepatic route and retrieved from the duodenum through an endoscope. A 10 Fr stent was then passed through the endoscope over the guide wire across the stricture. The procedure was successful in all four patients, with no complication.
