ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at two different methods for treating a condition known as malignant hilar biliary duct stenosis, which is a type of blockage in the bile ducts often caused by cancer. The researchers want to see if using endoscopic scissors to cut the nasobiliary duct is more effective and safe compared to placing plastic stents to help with this blockage. The trial is currently recruiting participants aged 18 to 80 who have been diagnosed with this condition and need a specific procedure called ERCP to relieve the blockage.

To be eligible, participants need to have a confirmed diagnosis of malignant hilar biliary duct stenosis and meet certain health criteria. Those with severe organ issues, recent infections, or who have had other biliary treatments may not qualify. If you decide to participate, you can expect to undergo the procedure while being closely monitored for safety and effectiveness. The goal is to find the best approach to help patients with this challenging condition.
