Abstrakt: Background: Thin delivery system stents can be inserted directly without the need for a tract dilation step and are expected to reduce bile leakage during endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD). The present study retrospectively compared the safety and efficacy of EUS-BD using a thin metal stent (< 7.5 Fr) with those of EUS-BD using a conventional stent (≥ 7.5 Fr).
Methods: The present study enrolled 112 patients who underwent EUS-BD using metal stents for unresectable malignant biliary obstruction between April 2016 and July 2022. The primary endpoint was the rate of adverse events (AEs). The secondary endpoints were clinical success rate, procedure time, procedure success rate in the absence of the tract dilation step, recurrent biliary obstruction rate, time to biliary obstruction, and overall survival. Risk factors associated with early AEs were also evaluated.
Results: The rate of early AEs was significantly lower (12% vs. 35%, P = 0.013) and the procedure success without the tract dilation step was significantly higher (82% vs. 33%, P < 0.001) in the thin than in the conventional delivery system stent group. None of the other secondary endpoints differed significantly between the two groups. Multivariate analysis showed that employing the tract dilation step during EUS-BD was a significant independent risk factor for early AEs (skipping vs. employing; HR, 9.66; 95% CI, 1.13-83.0, P = 0.028).
Conclusion: Employing the tract dilation step during EUS-BD was a significant risk factor for early AEs. Metal stents with a delivery diameter < 7.5 Fr can be inserted directly without the tract dilation step, resulting in lower early AE rates.
