Evaluation of bipolar radiofrequency ablation for occluded self-expandable metal stents in the bile duct: in vivo and in vitro study.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND AND AIMS:Endobiliary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been used to treat occluded self-expandable metal stents (SEMSs). The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics of bipolar RFA in occluded SEMSs using both in vivo and in vitro models. METHODS:For the in vivo study, uncovered SEMSs were deployed in the bile ducts of three pigs; another pig was used as the control. RFA was performed at 10 W for 90 seconds. The bile duct was examined for histological changes. For the in vitro simulation of tissue ingrowth in SEMSs, RFA at 10 W for 30 seconds was performed on SEMS-occlusion polyacrylamide-gel phantoms. RESULTS:The ablation depth was markedly reduced in the stented porcine bile duct. RFA of uncovered SEMS-occlusion gel phantoms resulted in early termination of RFA when the coagulated area contacted the SEMS. This phenomenon was not observed in RFA of the covered SEMS-occlusion gel phantoms. CONCLUSIONS:The presence of SEMSs attenuated the effect of bipolar endobiliary RFA. Tumorous tissue outside the SEMS is unlikely to be affected.
