50 years oldPancreatic cancer patientsCompression of the common bile duct causes obstructive jaundice with ascites. patientsIn the past, the PTCD tube was blocked, and the yellowing effect was poor, come to my department**.

We'll see you under the X-lineThe original PTCD tube was twisted and discounted, so there was a blockage

After entering the guidewire from the original PTCD tube, slowly pull out the original PTCD tube outward, alongsideThe guidewire is implanted into a new PTCD tube。A guidewire was introduced, and iohexol imaging was used to detect the obstruction of the lower end of the common bile duct and the dilation of the common bile duct. We are alongNew PTCD tubesPlace the guidewire and withdraw the new PTCD tubeInsert the expansion bougie along the guidewire, adjust the direction so that the guidewire passes through the bile duct stricture into the duodenum and dilates the bougieFollow the guidewire into the duodenum, confirmed by angiography. Withdraw the dilated bougie along the guidewireA metal stent for the common bile duct is placedSupport dilates the stenosis of the lower end of the common bile duct, so that the bile smoothly enters the duodenum and relieves the common bile duct obstruction.

Bile enters the intestine to aid digestion and avoid bile loss, and patients no longer need to carry PTCD tubes and drainage bags, which improves their lives.
