Plastic endoprostheses versus metal stents in the palliative treatment of malignant hilar biliary obstruction. A prospective and randomized trial.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS:Endoscopically placed metallic biliary stents provide durable drainage for malignant biliary obstruction. The best-studied metal stent is the Wallstent, which has a greater duration of patency than polyethylene stents. Recently, the Ultraflex Diamond stent has been introduced, with reports fro...
