Cryptogenic chronic liver disease and serum or liver hepatitis B virus markers. Their possible correlations and etiologic significance.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Bile duct stones (BDS) are usually removed via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or, if ERCP remains unsuccessful, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage (PTCD). However, PTCD provides limited access to large BDSs. We analyzed a modified approach of PTCD for percutaneous therapy of B...
