Twelve years' experience with transhepatic intubation

Twelve years' experience with transhepatic intubation

R C Praderi. Ann Surg. 1974 Jun.

Abstract

The use of transhepatic drains constitutes an excellent safety procedure in the surgery of biliary stenosis, whether benign or tumoral. Many variations of the technique have been devised for application in a number of conditions, such as double, U, T, Y, transtumoral, and transanastomotic. The author presents his experience with 60 cases over the past 12 years.
